The Green Mile (1999) Movie Reaction First Time Watching

[@mathewnavarro1152]

I will never NOT cry during this film. Each and every actor played their role to perfection and MCD should of nabbed an Oscar for this.

[@totallywhatever]

Agreed, he should’ve won an Oscar!

[@diannaellis4708]

The actor who played Percy had me hating him within the first scene.

[@KaiMax_23]

Only other film I've seen that actor in is The Salton Sea. Made you hate him well in that too. 😂​@@diannaellis4708

[@1972dsrai]

You’re not wrong. I even had to look up who did win best supporting role. Michael Caine got it for The Cider House Rules. A good movie, but still feel the wrong actor won although Caine was good. Kevin Spacey won best actor for American Beauty which I can agree with. He is an amazing actor tbf.

[@bazkeen]

This and The Shawshank Redemption are two of the best films ever.

[@randallespinosa4264]

[@deadlyredly1]

I'm sure that connection has valid points - but to me it belittles the underlying tale. You don't have to believe in that nonsense to find something here. Although not at all saying that wasn't King's intention.

[@Arfy900]

@@deadlyredly1 belittles?? Believe in that Nonsense??? 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️ Wow. You have great difficulty in accepting varying OPINIONS.

@@deadlyredly1 Nothing about it is nonsensical. There is more evidence for the existence, life and death, of Jesus Christ than there is for Plato or Alexander The Great.

@@Arfy900 This guy believes that out of nothing "bang" life just happened. Inanimate objects just sprang to life and he calls the Gospel of Jesus nonsense.

This is a total of 580,000 ‘letters,’7-humans have three billion in every nucleus. (See ‘The programs of life’, for an explanation of the DNA ‘letters.’) The amount of information that could be stored in a pinhead’s volume of DNA is equivalent to a pile of paperback books 500 times as high as the distance from Earth to the moon, each with a different, yet specific content.8 Putting it another way, while we think that our new 40 gigabyte hard drives are advanced technology, a pinhead of DNA could hold 100 million times more information." creation.com/dna-marvellous-messages-or-mostly-mess Question: If you gave 1 million monkeys (you could use 8 billion it wouldn't make a difference) a typewriter and asked them to randomly punch the keyboard 100 million years do you think that they would ever come up with Shakespeare's "Romeo and Juliet"? Or even a complete 10 word sentence? It is a serious question because your soul in on the line. I would suggest you open your mind and try to disprove God or Jesus verses mindlessly thinking you are smarter than everyone.

Don't worry, ladies, I was in tears to by the end of the reaction. You can watch it 100 times, and it will always make you cry.

[@totallywhatever]

Definitely a tearjerker! 😭

I cry every single time I watch it. I even cry during reactions. Schindler's List affects me the same way. And Titanic.

[@dirkmoolman]

Yip, one of the deepest movies you will ever see.

[@Sentinel3D]

In the books, John was hundreds of years old and had been all over the world. He had been a slave. He had seen everything. Also, when he shook Paul's hand, he knew him and wanted to heal him. He was probably trying to heal him with the handshake, but it wasn't enough. If you want to see two underrated sad love stories that will make you feel good at the end, try The Adjustment Bureau and Passengers.

[@totallywhatever]

Wow, that would have been an interesting detail in the movie and would have helped us understand his motivations!

[@genghisgalahad8465]

wow, okay, recommend and spoil movies "at the end."

[@1972dsrai]

Its crazy that man can be so cruel and that black people were treated so badly for centuries starting with the Arab slave trade, but they enslaved people of all colours from all parts of the world. Its partly why there are fairer skinned people in North Africa now. Sorry, went off on a tangent.

[@jaakkomantyjarvi7515]

One detail that is often overlooked is that Paul shaking John Coffey's hand before the execution is the only act of protest available to Paul, given that there is no way he could prove that John was innocent and John himself did not want to run away -- and refusing to carry out the execution would just have meant that someone else would have done it instead, and Paul would have been out of a job.

[@totallywhatever]

Good point, shaking his hand in that moment was a big deal.

[@orchidwave2574]

I'm not sure it was a protest, more a gesture of personal respect and regret.

[@telukpaku4296]

And also John shook Paul's hand the first time and Paul shook John's hand for the last time.😊

[@deadlyredly1]

Surely the impact of this moment wasn't overlooked by anyone who understands the movie even in the slightest

[@MrTech226]

Plus, Paul is like Pontius Pilate washing his hands and walk away from JC's execution by shaking John's hand let audience there know that John is innocent of killing of those girls. If Paul refused to give orders on the execution, then like you stated here, prison would find another give the orders knowing other guards probably the orders too. John didn't want Paul to lose his job.

[@awall1701]

It is such a brilliant film, it unfolds beautifully it really does not seem like it is a 3 hour film. Another great reaction ladies. I cannot wait for the next one.

[@totallywhatever]

Yes, it didn’t seem like three hours to us. We were engrossed the whole time in the story! Thanks for watching!

[@1972dsrai]

You’re right. I watched it again after some years only yesterday after watching another reaction video and it seemed to go by so quickly. I could happily have carried watching if it was even longer. Its just completely absorbing.

[@leeswhimsy]

Just imagine how long John Coffey had been "alive" and how tired his spirit was and how hard it must have been to keep going and be positive and live in this world.

[@totallywhatever]

He must have been completely exhausted, mentally, physically, and emotionally.

[@ccwt]

the scars on Coffey's body may suggest he was a slave before the Civil War. Maybe Coffey had abnormal long life? Which he passed to the mouse & Paul?

[@brianhouse8264]

Michael Clarke Duncan who played John was actually a very large man. May he Rest in Peace. And he was a phenomenal actor.

[@bwilliams463]

Mr Duncan was a very large man, but they shot him as much taller than his actual 6'5" height. King never gives an actual height for the character in the book, but it's pretty clear John Coffee is a giant, probably over 7 feet tall.

[@jmiyagi12345]

He wad the same height as David Morse (Brutal) and an inch shorter than David Cromwell (the warden).

[@1972dsrai]

Hanks actually spoke at his memorial.

[@stevenspringer1599]

this film is the cinematic 'Turing test' to see if you're human or not

[@SFOlson]

I think it would be closer to the Voigt-Kampff test.

[@Lord_Legolas_Greenleaf]

It is only one of many.

[@themarshmallowknownasking671]

This is honestly the only movie that makes me cry. No other film hits me as hard as this one.

[@1972dsrai]

Its true. You have to be a sociopath not to get emotional watching it. Then again, some are pretty good at faking empathy.

[@1972dsrai]

@@themarshmallowknownasking671 I wouldn’t go that far, but I’m a big softy who eill cry at anything according to my kids.

[@ElectricSoulShow]

The Green Mile, The Elephant Man and Shawshank Redemption are 3 x films that wiill really make you think how we humans have remained the leading species on this earth.

[@jvig7353]

The Elephant Man being the only one based on a true story makes it hit that much harder.... I know a lot of other films are designed for satisfying tear jerking experiences, but that film is utterly depressing and perhaps the saddest film ever (a huge compliment from me).

[@LongandWeirdName]

The type of mouse Mr Jingles was lives 2.5-3 years in the wild and up to 4 in captivity if well taken care of. He lived to roughly 64(we don't know his age when found). If John's gift simply adds years, Paul will have to wait until he's roughly 140. Now... if it multiples the lifespan... Mr Jingles lived 16 times as long as a mouse of his species should. A human male lives roughly 80 years(rounding for ease of multiplication), making Paul 1280 before he finishes his mile.

[@totallywhatever]

Wow, thats a looong lifetime.

[@LongandWeirdName]

@@totallywhatever Well... He did "Roll on Two." one of God's true miracles.

[@1972dsrai]

I’d take that. The hardest part would be losing so many people along the way. Knowing you’ll outlive your kids.

[@BigGator5]

"We each owe a death - there are no exceptions - but, oh God, sometimes the Green Mile seems so long." Fun Fact: Originally set in 1932, the timeframe was bumped to 1935 so that the movie Top Hat (1935) could be featured. Jock Strap Incident Fact: Michael Clarke Duncan was uncomfortable with having to grab Tom Hanks' crotch for the scene where John cures Paul's urinary infection. Hanks left the set and came back to do the scene; Duncan grabbed Hanks' crotch and was shocked to discover that he had put an empty water bottle in his trousers. After that, Duncan felt more comfortable with the scene. Measuring Up Fact: In reality, Michael Clarke Duncan was of a similar height to his co-star David Morse, and was a couple of inches shorter than James Cromwell. Amongst other things, creative camera angles were used to create the illusion that Duncan, as John Coffey, towered over the prison staff, even "Brutal" Howell and Warden Moores. For one scene where Paul, Coffey and Brutal were in the same shot, Michael Clark Duncan was standing on a plank, David Morse stood on the ground, and Tom Hanks was standing in a trench dug into the ground just for that purpose.

[@totallywhatever]

I love that fun fact about the jockstrap! I can only imagine how uncomfortable that would be for both of them to film! 😆

[@BigGator5]

My pleasure. 😁 Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍

[@Buffy8Fan]

They should have started with _The Shawshank Redemption;_ same book author and movie director, but with a more light-hearted tone, while still bringing the emotion.

[@that.ll_do_pig]

I don't know why one would need to start with Shawshank vs Green mile. They don't have anything to do with each other other than having the same director, writer and taking place in a prison; so they can be enjoyed independently of each other. 😊

Thanks so much for watching, I just added Shawshank redemption to our list!

[@blakewalker84120]

9:50 "Did he say he was a trustee?" Yes. An inmate who has demonstrated good behavior might be designated as "trustee". In return for possibly reducing their sentence, or at least a kind word from the warden during parole hearings, the trustee helps the guards by performing tasks at the prison but outside the areas of confinement. This guy can afford to goof around since he's never going to be executed; he might even be up for parole soon. Side note: this actor is Harry Dean Stanton, star of many, many movies but he'll always be beloved for his role in Alien.

[@totallywhatever]

Ah ha! We were wondering what that meant. Thanks!

[@RedSinter]

[@BhaktiRosin108]

4:57 no shoes, they had a plank sort of thing he'd walk on, the camera cuts once he gets the end so they can adjust it again. The bed, cell bars and chair were all made smaller to make him look enormous even though I believe "Brutal" is actually taller than all of them if I remember correctly 6:01 MCD said he was actually scared in this scene which absolutely just breaks my heart knowing he never got the award & recognition he deserved for this role before he passed 28:12 St. Christopher was the perfect gift because he's apparently the patron saint of travelers which hints at how JC (Jesus Christ/ John Coffey) just "dropped out of the sky" 31:06 not only did he get into Brier ridge, he's actually in the same room as Wild Bill was in lol 34:28 not only did he request to have the hood off, JC also was shown to have died w/ his eyes still open which to me also points back to him being scared of the dark.

They pair up again in Apollo 13, which is also an extremely good film with Kevin Bacon and Bill Paxton co-starring. It's also based on a true story, if that appeals to you.

Those whom Coffey heals also benefit from (or, perhaps, are cursed with) an unnaturally extended lifespan. •His healing results in purifying a person completely, leaving only a physical manifestation of the disease - swarms of insect-like creatures or entities - which he exhales out of his body. •Mind Reading: John Coffey possesses mind reading through touching, where he can see a person's past if he lays his hands on him/her. •He was almost literally an angel sent down to help Earth, he may have been a giant, but, he was an incredibly kind and caring man, someone who wanted to heal rather than harm.

[@totallywhatever]

We totally agree!!

[@henryb4701]

It's only a movie ladies, no actors or mice were hurt in the making of it. Amazing movie

[@totallywhatever]

It wad great!

[@smitty60-su2xf]

When John says im sorry for what i am instead of for what ive done ..gets me everytime ..classic movie...great reaction..checkout CASTAWAY...Also Forrest Gump..

[@totallywhatever]

I’m gonna start crying again just thinking about it!

[@geraldnaicker262]

Next on the list is The Shawshank redemption. It's simply a must. Greetings from South Africa.

[@totallywhatever]

Thanks so much for watching, we have Shawshank Redemption on our list!

[@belvagurr403]

Brutal, David Morse, is 6’5” same as Michael Clarke Duncan, but with risers and other tricks he appears much bigger. The bunk and electric chair were made smaller to give MCD a larger effect.

[@totallywhatever]

Wow, I was wondering how they made him look so much bigger. I know he's a tall guy but he was towering over everyone! Thanks!

[@MarijnvdSterre]

The one thing that makes it easier to believe that no one noticed the lack of water in time. They practice without water. And they have more practice sessions as real events.

[@totallywhatever]

Ahhh good point!

[@momD612]

The practice guy is the janitor! 😂😂😂😂 geez....

[@pifftv518]

HEY GUYS, NEW SUB HERE. LOVED THE REACTION. AND WITH ALL DUE RESPECT, NANNETTE YOU ARE THE CUTEST FREAKING THING I EVER SEEN!!!!!😍😍😍😍😍💚💚💚💚💚💯💯💯💯💯🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

[@totallywhatever]

Thanks for subbing!

[@Citizen88020120820]

S Tier movie. I still cry at this one no matter how many times I watch.

[@totallywhatever]

It is pretty amazing, we agree!

[@Nico3039]

le casting entier mérite un oscar, Hutchison en tête...

[@totallywhatever]

Yes, the acting was superb!

[@philmullineaux5405]

Same writers directors producers and many actors also in the Shawshank redemption! Bonnie Hunt has been the best actress in Hollywood for 40 years but never gets leading roles. But what she did in Dave, and Jerry McGuire, is incredible! The old guy is Harry Dean Stanton. Bern in movies since black n white! From Dillinger to godfather 2, Red Dawn, the Hulk, this, u name it!

[@totallywhatever]

Oh Bonnie Hunt, that’s who she is! We knew we knew her!!

[@danielemlet7885]

Tom Hanks had three great movies The Green Mile, Saving Private Ryan, Forest Gump

[@totallywhatever]

Yes, he has quite a few classics!

[@DenverStarkey]

more than three dude you forget: philadelphia Apollo 13 Cast Away prior to that he was an 80's star in comedy movies.

[@bwilliams463]

'Green Mile' is part of a traditional reaction trio with 'Saving Private Ryan' and 'The Shawshank Redemption.' Percy Wetmore is one of the greatest antagonist performances of all time. It's always fun to watch new reactors getting to know Percy.

[@totallywhatever]

He is sooo good at playing an evil character!

[@samxf]

The second I saw your poster I knew I was going to subscribe X-Files love it

[@Echelon1984]

Michael Clarke Duncan was 6”5’ and was only an inch taller than David Morse who played Brutal. So they had to make him appear bigger they made his cell and cell bed smaller then the others and the other actors walk on a lower level floor

[@oneisnone7350]

Great reaction! Subscribed. With the holidays coming up. Try to do It’s A Wonderful Life (1946) if you’ve never seen it.

[@totallywhatever]

Thank you for the suggestion and for subscribing!

[@fatloser7244]

THANK YOU for being understanding of the parents in the film. Other reactors on KZbin would get angry and curse the parents, one reactor even said she wanted the parents to be executed, which shows that their emotions are all shallow and surface level. They seem to forget that the parents lost two children and they squarely believe John Coffey did the crime. Thank you for letting viewers know that the parents are also deserved of sympathy and compassion.

[@Bruce-Wayne-101]

Not a bad pick ladies 💚 Stephen King also writes drama, but my favorite King Drama for recommendations is Stand By Me, not sure if that story was based on his childhood. But it’s a great movie. And for Spooky King stories: - The Shining -Doctor Sleep - Christine ( directed by John. Carpenter) - Carrie - Children Of The Corn ( 80s version) -Cujo Just to name a few.

[@totallywhatever]

Oh, thank you so much! I’ve actually never heard of Doctor Sleep, just added these to our list!

[@Bruce-Wayne-101]

@@totallywhatever make sure you watch The Shining first , Doctor Sleep is the sequel to the The Shining ( 80s version) , so yall watch it in order. ❤️

[@paulstroud2647]

'The Mist' deserves a mention too, another King movie directed by Frank Tarabont.

[@StoryMing]

One of the very few reactions that actually GETS why the guards can’t do anything to help save John Coffey.

[@totallywhatever]

Yeah, that was a tough moment realizing the fact they couldn’t help him.

[@StoryMing]

@@totallywhatever The number of people who expect a rescue mission, and fault Paul & Co for _allowing_ the execution to go forward- when all of them (except Percy) would have given the world to be able to set him free.

[@zedvar3806]

The Indian fellow is Graham Greene and he was in Dances With Wolves.

[@jakethesnake121394]

Great movie and great reaction 👍

[@totallywhatever]

Thanks so much for watching!!

[@dklabratful]

Now you have to watch The Shawshank Redemption. From the same stable, a masterpiece, still very emotional but with a much more satisfying, uplifting ending.

[@totallywhatever]

Thanks for the rec, we could use an uplifting ending!

[@danmoores4785]

It's a hard one to watch, but worth it. Some movies i feel once is enough. Maybe its just me? Good work girls.

[@totallywhatever]

I think I at least have to wait a long time before I see it again, but it was definitely worth the watch!
