Stephen........King of the Mile

Rating: 9/10 (23 April 2012)

Only Stephen King could come up with a story like this. I think we need more movies like The Green Mile. Lots of people say its too long...Rubbish !!!Its 3 hours and 9 minutes because it took that long to make this film. Why is the Universe so big ? Because its not small !! Anyway....the acting in this is of the highest quality. The 1930s feel is very authentic. Its so refreshing to have a story where the lines between reality and mysticism are blurred.....where a mouse could have been nominated for an Academy Award. People attend the cinema to escape for a couple of hours (or 3 hours and 9 minutes !) .....this is escapism with ice and a huge twist of "whatever you want". Great stuff !!!
