FIRST TIME WATCHING: The Green Mile...who isn't crying??

[@stormangelus6638]

The actor who played John Coffey, Michael Clarke Duncan, unfortunately died September 3, 2012. He stood 6'5" and was one of the sweetest men ever. He played Kingpin in the Daredevil movie, and did several commercials. He was kind, loving, and truly a gentle soul. They chose the perfect person to play John Coffey.

[@jameshunt9208]

Indeed, and they used movie magic to make him look a lot taller than his fellow actors.

[@pat_jones36]

What confused me at first is that micheal duncan is 6’5, Tom hanks is 6’0 and Micheal towers over him like he’s over a foot taller. But apparently he wore elevated shoes and they had certain camera angles to make him look taller, John Coffey was around 6’8 and they made Micheal 6’8 for the movie.

[@moonlitegirl72]

The parents already believed that it was John Coffey who raped and murdered their he actually did them a kindness by not telling them it was wild Bill a person that they literally brought right into the house imagine the guilt they would have felt for the rest of their lives it was easier for them not to say that the murder of your children is easy put to blame it on a stranger

[@choney1168]

R.I.P George Stinney Jr. John Coffee’s character was based on his wrongful execution. He was wrongfully accused of killing two white girls and was electrocuted as a child. Stephen King decided to write a fictional book about the matter and added the supernatural aspect. But it makes the story even more sad. George never got a fair trial, he wasn’t allowed to see his or speak to his parents, he was separated from the other inmates in an outside cell. Heartbreaking story.

To be clear he can't bring people or creatures back from the dead, the mouse was barely alive thus "bring him to me, there still might be time". Once something is dead, he can't heal them, thus the two dead children at the beginning of the movie. He wanted to take it back but death is permanent.

I'm sure given the opportunity, he would have given his life to save the girls. From every example shown in the movie, he hasn't been able to resurrect the dead, only those who still have some glimmer of life. The mouse was only able to be brought back because he didn't die instantly, that is why he urged the guys to bring him the mouse as fast as possible before it was too late.

Tom Hanks was given a lifetime achievement award by the American Film Institute in 2002. Many people spoke about him at the ceremony. One of the most heartfelt speeches came from Michael Clarke Duncan. He told a story of how Tom would always run lines with him to help him improve his performance. Tom spoke at Michael's memorial service in 2012 and cracked it up with a wonderful story that Mike had told him about the time when he joined a gang when he was a kid and how his mom reacted to it.

True. And when Del says, "I wish I could have met you guys somewhere else" to Paul and Brutus it always gets me (even though Del's crime was quite horrendous: Raping, murdering and burning the body of a young girl, which started a fire in a nearby house which killed six more people). _Everyone_ can be redeemed though.

[@beckymorilak5285]

@@JustWasted3HoursHere That's part of what makes The Green Mile so good. It shows that these characters are human, despite committing the worst of crimes. It's hard to see the humanity in people who commit such acts. We tend to think of them as monsters wearing human skin. Del committed the most unspeakable of acts, yet he cared so deeply for Mr. Jingles. Arlen Bitterbuck killed a man in a bar fight over boots, but he deeply regretted what he had done and opened up to Paul about his happiest memory.

The actor playing old Paul is Dabbs Greer, one of the best and most prolific character actors of all time. This major role was a well-deserved capper to his long career.

I think the overall message was something akin to: regardless of how long our own green mile is, we should try to spend it being as kind to each other as possible. otherwise it will seem very long if we spend it dwelling in negativity and treating each other with hatred and disrespect. that was my take anyway. btw, did you catch that John Coffey's initials were JC (Jesus Christ)? fun little easter egg.

[@chrissmith6097]

Stephen King doesn’t really do “messages”. He talks about this in his nonfiction book “On Writing”, to him there are two groups of writers. One group is about subtext, themes, messages, and talk only about big important things. They write for themselves and the critics. The other group are entertainers, they’re telling a story to entertain you. He’s said he’s firmly and happily in that second group. Still, he’d probably agree with your takeaway even if he disagrees with how you arrived there.

[@guardian35]

I love this movie. It's pretty much the story of a group of prisoners and guards who encounter a gentle giant with 'the shining' in the 1930's and how they process the encounter outside of the standard horror trope. A lot of major characters in the Stephen King universe shine to some degree or another. It's usually what draws the supernatural to them but also gives them the power and mental strength to defend themselves as well...usually from the Lovecraftian entities that attack the minds and wills of their prey. There are those that feed off your fear, or your rage, or your sorrow but also those that just feed off your life and/or your flesh. Even the losers club in IT is implied to shine a little which is why they each survived their initial encounters with IT. They could resist his psychic attacks of fear to a better degree and it even gave them visions of how to defeat IT in the end. I always like playing 'spot the shiner' in Steven King movies. Also, if you want a much darker Stephen King story you should check out Pet Sematary. The original and the remake are both good in my opinion. The remake delves more into mythos of the story than the original movie did but I would like to know what you think of the differences.

[@inlpwetrust]

One part of the original novel (that couldn't be translated to screen) stood out to me: during Coffey's execution, Paul, as narrator, talks about how each of his coworkers/friends will die later in life. Makes the scene even more somber and the theme of death more hard hitting.

This one gets me every, single, time. I swear Percy remains the most hated man in film. LOL And can you believe Sam Rockwell. The entire cast is stellar! Also, might I recommend Dances with Wolves if you haven't already seen it. Long, but incredible.

Ive seen many reactions for the green mile but one thing that remains consistent is everyone’s immediate hatred for Percy. Which just show the great characterization of this story.

I have watched many reacts to this movie... you guys by far gave the best react! Thank you! Have you given a thought on doing the Young Guns movies?? I haven't seen any one do those yet.

[@babytooty04]

Oh, my goodness. you guys are on a roll.

[@jesterforhire]

Just discovered you today. Great reaction to Arrival. Very interested to watch your channel grow. Love from Seattle, WA! 💞

Hey boys, I think you should react to “I, Tonya” I think that is a good movie and also is really underrated.

[@lindseywagoner5848]

They are probably to young to enjoy that in my opinion. Not sure how old you are, but it’s one of those movies I think you would have lived through and saw it live at the Olympics for these young men or any young person to enjoy the depth of it. But just my opinion. It’s a great film and very underrated. It was great to hear Tonyas point of view. We always saw it from Nancy’s point of view. ❤️ I could be completely wrong tho

It's fascinating watching Americans discuss the death penalty... It's like hearing a similar conversation on the same subject between Europeans fifty years ago.

Also lethal injection is not humane at all. John Oliver did a piece on that, it's called "Lethal Injections: Last Week Tonight with John Oliver" if anyone wants to watch it.

Maybe I’m not understanding your comment, but this took place in the early 1900’s

Hey guys, quite new to your channel, but loving it so far! This is one of my all time favourite movies I have ever seen! It's so well done! I dont watch it often as it hits me in the feels every time, but it really is brilliant! Another really great movie that I strongly recommend is Big Fish (Tim Burton movie) it's equally brilliant, but in a different way, would love to see a reaction to it if you get a chance ❤️ PS: Also loved your Harry Potter reactions, watched them all including the book reviews, sad I didn't discover you guys earlier to have been able to jump in on the live feeds you did for them. Keep up the great work guys! From a new fan in the land down under 😉

Really good reaction, guys. And insightful how you picked up on the weirdly optimistic message in King stories. You should watch _Dead Zone (1983)_ at some point. Great acting, one of the earlier adaptations to the screen (perhaps the first?), and it fleshes out that optimistic concept with a bit of depth. I'll not say anymore to avoid spoilers, but it is an excellent movie.

[@ligiadantas2170]

One of the best movies ever made 👏👏👏👏👏

[@DinoNardelli]

Excellent film and review. One of the great tear jerkers. If I could change anything in the film, I would have made the "badness" released from John Coffey almost invisible like a heat haze effect, for example.

[@krissjw1982]

I've just started watching your reaction (I'm only just over three minutes in) but already I want to say that I'm so glad that you've reacted to this - such an awesome movie! I look forward to seeing the full reaction but I've no doubt it'll be a good one! :D PS. I don't know whether or not you've seen them, but I'd love to see what you make of 'Silence of the Lambs', 'Hannibal' (the movie, not the TV show) and 'Red Dragon'. ;) PPS. I've been meaning to do it for a while, but know you've a new subscriber... :)

I always get a kick out of thinking what the casting call might have been like. 'We need an old white southern man, who is very spry and light of foot'
