The biggest, most intimidating and quote, ‘enormous’ man they’d ever lay eyes on. Those in the cells who have murdered before looked upon him in fear and wonder. Yet, he be the most kindest, sensitive and compassionate of all. Innocent of the crime accused of yet still condemned to die. Attempted to save lives and viewed to have killed. Suffering for those around him. And possesses the ability to cure illness and death. This masterpiece of a film truly is one of a kind. None compare

[@rudolfnavaro]

i just finished watching it for the first time a few hours ago. i bawled my eyes out, cant lie. the way the acting was done, the portrayal of unique characters alike, ive never seen a movie this touching. normally movies dont even get my attention, as i find them boring, but this time i beg to differ. the way everything was done, sheesh you wanted to slap percy so hard, hug paul forever and bring john back if you could. now i cant even give my thanks to michael amymore for his brilliant portrayal, but i know its not too late now to say hes in heaven, up there. may he rest in peace. :)

In the end, John Coffey WANTED to die, and was for a good reason. From what we hear from him before his execution, he told us of something that really bothered him. What was bothering him, was Man's tension and hatred for each other. It felt like that it was like pieces of glass, tearing right into him. He wanted to go to be with God the Father, where he knew in his heart, that the absolute hatred that some people feel for one another, and that affected him, would be forever gone. He knew that, with God the Father, there was only love, joy, peace, and happiness, forevermore! He wanted to go to be with Jesus...and I believe that he got his wish granted, the moment that the Executioner pulled the switch, and sent lethal jolts of electricity coursing through his body. At that moment, he became absent from the body, and present with God the Father, at least in Spirit. One sweet day, the body of John Coffey will come out of the Grave, and be reunited with John's Spirit, and then it will become a Glorified Body, never to die no more!

Percy is a great example of the Stanford prison experiment, when an individual is placed in a position of power they change and become irrational or violent

[@Moadar]

That experiment has kind of been debunked. The "guards" were coached into acting like they did.

[@Perrygallo]

except Percy was probably like that before he was made a guard.

[@davecrupel2817]

Its kind of unfair when youre in power over prisoners.

[@CornholioPuppetMaster]

Like the experiment with adrien Brody and Forrest Whittaker

[@ovskii96]

Percy was already sadistic before becoming a guard. He chose a job that gave him power to abuse others, even though he comes from a wealthy family. None of the other guards in the movie are like this, they only use force when they have to. If anything, Percy is an example of why the Stanford Prison Experiment was wrong.

[@roblex63]

@@ashleysmith8402 yea, and even IF they tried to get him free Legally it would be a circus Trying to prove who the real killer was through "a vision" would be laughed at, the fact that he was seen as a Pedophilic raping murderer wouldn't help his case either. And to top it off they where in the south, so automatically the populace was against him since racism was still quite rampant (this is the 20's). and probably cost them a lot more than their jobs. Illegally would probably been a bit more fruitful. sneak him out at night, drop him off in a field somewhere, and he would have dissappeared, kinda. Though again, the whole state would be looking for him and he's hard to miss with him standing a good 8 ft tall, and big and black. Plus they would be out to kill him at that point. So I think John was fine where he was at, since he was already done with the world.

Obviously a movie with the kind of magical realism that this one has means a solid suspension of disbelief up front. What that means, however, is our suspension of disbelief for the purely realistic.
