Prison guard mistakenly kills angel, receives most painful curse on earth

"The Green Mile" is a film released in 1999, based on the novel of the same name by Stephen King.
The movie tells the story set in a Louisiana state prison during the 1930s. The protagonist, Paul Edgecomb, is a prison guard responsible for executing death row inmates and serves as a spiritual pillar within the prison.
The central focus of the story is a prisoner named John Coffey. John is a physically imposing and immensely strong African American man who has been sentenced to death for the alleged murder of two young girls. However, Paul gradually discovers that John possesses miraculous healing abilities and supernatural powers.
As the story unfolds, Paul begins to doubt John's guilt and learns about his true identity and the suffering he endures. Paul and the other guards face moral and ethical dilemmas as they must decide whether to expose the truth, all while dealing with the pressures of the prison system and societal norms.
"The Green Mile" delves deep into themes of humanity, justice, forgiveness, and the way people treat one another. The film presents emotionally charged interactions and internal struggles among its characters, while also examining issues of injustice and prejudice in society.
This movie has been widely praised for its poignant storytelling, outstanding performances, and its exploration of the complexities of human nature. It encompasses profound themes and unforgettable scenes, earning its status as a classic that resonates with audiences and has been frequently referenced and quoted.

It’s not just a standout as a prison movie. For myself ,and a lot of others I know, it is one of the best movies.

This is why I prefer recaps. My eyes welled up and tears rolled down my cheeks as I sniffed and stifled a silent sob towards the recap's ending. But STILL so very different than when I watched the actual movie: boohooing and letting it all hang out, snots and all 😭 So, thank you 🙏🏽

[@robertstewart1223]

I'm almost 60 years old now. This ranks in the top 10 movies of my lifetime. Never seen such a beautifully complex story line. This is exactly how humanity would treat an angelic being. No understanding just judgment based on color or circumstance. I will tell ya this though. If I was one of the 4 guards, I would've quickly made up the story that wild bill told Percy he killed the girls and Percy lost his mind and shot him. I would've lied my face off to make sure that angel of a being went free.

How is it possible that one actor has possibly 3 of the top ten movies ever.Tom Hanks.Castaway,Forest Gump,and the green mile.Tbh his only rivals are Denzel or Robert De Niro.

[@robertstewart1223]

You are so right it isn't funny. Tom Hanks and Denzel Washington aren't a list celebrities...they have their own tier. They are the actors that almost always win their films a nod from the Academy. Only one I disagree with is Robert De Nero. De Nero will nail any tough guy or mob type movie but I've never liked him in anything else. Had you said Robert Duval who still holds the Guinness world record for most versatile actor in the world, then you would have been firing on all cylinders. 😉

The case was closed he couldn’t save him even if he wanted to. And it saddened him greatly. He didn’t deserve to die but in those’d tymes he didn’t have a fair trial all the jury was white n prejudice against black ppl.

This is without a doubt one of my top 5 movies ever, even though I may have watched it 10+ times, I bawl my eyes out every single time, such a big strong exterior but cotton candy interior John Coffey had. Kudos to Stephen King and the whole cast, Michael Clarke Duncan's oscar was well deserved.

I was saddened for a bit of time post-watch, even as a kid. I later bought and read the book. I highly recommend this movie to anyone and everyone. I think there is a lot modern day society can learn from it still.

That poor man didn’t deserve death, and yet he was killed due to racism and the whole crowd, the whole prison knew it was wrong but they couldn’t do anything about it.
