The Green Mile | First Time Watching | REACTION - LiteWeight Reacting

[@semafodje782]

Michael Clarke Duncan was ROBBED of the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor. Michael Caine was good in Cider House Rules, but Michael Clarke Duncan SHATTERED hearts and souls with his performance.

[@Stefanmannberg]

I agree

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Awards are so tough!!!

[@StreetHierarchy]

It's probably because the movie itself is so manipulative and because the magical negro trope is such tricky territory.

[@Sentinel3D]

This one should have won, but it was up against The Sixth Sense, which won that year. I think the Sixth Sense made a bigger impact because of word of mouthy. I never heard of Green Mile until I rented it in the early 2000s.

[@BM-hb2mr]

Rest in Peace Michael Clarke Duncan. You will be missed

[@irondiego2102]

So am I

[@martyjones984]

Remember when Melinda said that they were both wandering in the dark and found each other? John was afraid of the dark, but willingly went in to the dark to heal. He wasn't willing to go into the dark even to face his own death, but he went voluntarily to heal someone else.

That dude who played Wild Bill was absolutely brilliant. His delivery when whispering to those little girls was more menacing than any horror film character. When he grabbed Coffey's arm, that wasn't a human. That was a demon challenging an angel. The angel won.

by far, the best reaction to this movie I have ever seen. Not only were you honest with your emotions, but you got many of the connections that many miss. Great job.

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Thank you Dave! Glad you enjoyed 😊

[@gmunden1]

Exactly. You caught on quickly to the small details. Many people miss the instances where John feels an evil presence as Wild Bill arrives on the Mile, and also when John is watching the movie as the projector light surrounds John like a halo. Mister Jingles is over 60 years old by the end of the film.

[@moonlitegirl72]

I'm old and cynical so it was lovely watching the movie with you. you are young enough to still have a heart to me it was like watching with either my daughter or my granddaughters😊

[@RonFitCoaching]

@@LiteWeightReacting I've watched it a few times and I never caught the J.C. reference.

[@The_Great_White_Moose]

I’ve probably seen about 20 “reaction videos” to this movie. This reaction is BY FAR the best! If this move doesn’t break you emotionally, I can’t even relate to you. Lol. Thanks for sharing all the messy emotions.💚

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Wow! Thank you! That’s a huge compliment!

[@_Shadoh_]

Totally agree. I like emotional reactors bc I'm emotional too when watching this sad stuff, and Teegan fits that perfectly, could've been me when I watched this for the first time(and still can't watch it without crying).

[@skyshroudsylvan6022]

Yeah, I'd have to agree about it being the best reaction to this movie. I've seen a few where the reactor(s) don't even shed a tear. I can kind of understand, to a point. I have had issues showing any kind of emotion when it comes to death due to watching my grandfather pass away in front of me when I was 11. That direct emotion is severed for me. However, watching others cry makes me reconnect that emotion. My wife asked me why I watch sad videos. It's hard for her to understand.

[@KS4RonPaul]

@@LiteWeightReacting More reactions! More more more! Thank you for putting your giant heart on display, so those of us who've been tired of the world being ugly, can see and remember what it felt like before our hearts grew calloused.

I like how, unlike most reactions, she made the JC connection, and pretty quick

[@resonantfrequency8914]

"I used to have pet mice" WELP, good luck

Hook, line, and sinker! Just like the rest of us who are fans of this film.

[@LiteWeightReacting]

🤣 I was in trouble right from the beginning! No chance haha

[@00Jess_M]

for me it was the moment I saw her tearing up right at the beginning. "Already? Oh Lord, this won't end well for her." And then "I use to have pet mice".🤐

[@KellyHilgerRealtor]

Yep I started crying right along too… I’ve seen hundreds of reactions to this movie…. But it’s extra special when the reactor is a sensitive soul ♥️

[@sethkrueger9294]

23:05 "Urinating fully and easily" HAS to be top 5 all-time closed-captions. HAS to be. 🤣 Jokes aside, what crushes me when watching John Coffey's execution is remembering the inspiration behind King's novel - the real-life killing of George Stinney Jr., a 14-year-old boy accused of murdering two young girls in 1944. When John asks not to be put under the hood, because he's afraid of the dark, he's asking like a frightened boy about to die, who can't stand the thought of dying in the dark, alone. It kills me every time. 😭

[@leeandramurphy5903]

When he said, "Don't put me in the dark." it broke my heart. I watched this in school and even boys were crying. I had to walk outside and cried like a baby.

[@Parallax-3D]

My theory is that he was afraid of the dark because that’s where he goes in his mind when he’s feeling other people’s pain or healing them. The clue is that when he heals Miranda, she says that she dreamt they were both wandering in the dark, and found each other.

[@Juide80]

​@@Parallax-3DVery well supported theory. It makes sense all the way. Of course you could start poking holes to it if you really wanted to do that but I won't be doing that. I like that theory very much 😊

Incredible how she didn't shed a tear and spoil that make up

[@reevecole223]

We all knew you would fall apart. That's because we knew what a big beautiful heart you have. Don't worry, even us growed up men still cry every time we watch these reactions with you. 😢 You caught on way quicker than I did to what was going on. Thank you for sharing with us.

[@TheNowhereMan0]

Right words. She is a beautiful soul, just like John Coffey was.

[@Verasoul]

Let's calm down with the parasocial behavior. The only difference between shedding tears while watching this film and choking on your tears till your vision gets obscured is simply being, well, a lightweight. It has nothing to do with how beautiful ones heart is. More so it's just being invested in a good story. You don't know this person and don't need to blow smoke up her ass because she cries a lot watching movies. Hell, I shed tears a lot during emotional death scenes and I'm a fucking asshole... with beautiful heart 😊

[@JJKillerElite]

Jesus girl, you make me tear up, the humanity shown by the guards is beyond kind, and the way they humanize even those condemned to death is heartbreaking. Thank you for such an amazing reaction

[@lornebrown397]

At the 45:48 mark: "It looks like a halo!" I've seen this movie a dozen times (in the theatre when it was first released) and never caught that. At 70 years old, I watch reaction videos to share the movies (and especially my generation's music) with a younger generation to see if they "get it." You have become one of my favourites, not only for your insights but the raw emotions that you never hold back. Well done young lady. You have my my utter respect!

[@LoneStar-pg4rc]

Wow! I thought I, at 77 years, was the only one who did that. And I completely agree with your sentiments especially your comment about "sharing". GOOD job, Dear... you're not such a Liteweight after all.

[@angelohernandez6060]

​@@LiteWeightReactingI agree with said person. I have watched 3 of your reviews now and I love watching the reactions you get. I too get emotional in certain movies.

[@DaisyAzuras]

People wonder why Stephen King is so beloved as a writer. This is why. He writes about human experiences and uses the supernatural to accentuate the stories. I’m glad she caught the the JC nod and everything else. This has been one of the better reactions to this movie.

[@Xehanort10]

I watched The Mist once and the ending really got to me.

[@rebo2610]

She even got the halo behind John's head!

[@arryharry]

Stephen King definitely gives plenty of nods to God in his stories.

[@artbagley1406]

The book was easy to adapt to a screenplay; it's almost word-for-word the same as the book.

[@charlize1253]

Nowadays, only the worst kinds of murder are eligible for the death penalty, but in the 1920/30s when this movie took place, lots of lesser crimes were, including even car theft and burglary in some states. By setting it then, Stephen King brilliantly made it easier to sympathize with the inmates, because you really don't know what their crimes were.

[@HuricaneDitka]

High level of intelligence mixed with a high level of empathy, you're perfect for react content. Thank you for being you. This world needs more of you.

I remember it like it was yesterday. I was around 11 maybe 12 years old at the time, sat down and watched this movie for the first time back in 2007, parents asleep upstairs around 10pm. Im not the type to cry even as a child, when i sat and watched this alone, it changed me inside, i cried harder then i had in years and to this day, its still the hardest hitting movie ive ever watched all these years later. You're reaction mirrored mine in many ways, you'll remember this movie for years even decades to come, its just that much of a classic.

I'd say from the start of the 90's he was on a pretty amazing run, I can't think of an actor that has had a better decade run of movies really, from Philadelphia right through to Castaway. You could even extend it a year or two to include great movies like The Burbs, Road To Perdition and Catch Me If You Can.

It's at that moment that you realise this was his horror story all along. If his life scales as Mr Jingles has he will live centuries at minimum, if not millennia.

[@danieldickson8591]

@@mnomadvfx I don't think so. Mr. Jingles, John brought back to life, Paul he just shared a vision with. Paul had obviously aged considerably, just not nearly as much as his true age would suggest. I'd peg Paul lasting decades more, but not centuries.

[@thorkhammer]

This is one of the best movies of all time. I've seen it so much, scores of times including "reactions" like this. I'm always mildly surprised that so many watching it, even for the first time, do not make the connection of Stephen King's book from which this came. King's works always have a element of fantasy-horror. Carrie. Salem's Lot. The Stand. It. Your reaction was spot on.

[@urborg74]

Your empathy inspires me. We need so many more people like you in this world.

[@TEAMHOLT144]

Your reaction is the most emotional reaction ever, I cried again every time you cried. I felt your pain. Great reaction video

[@McKoyjb]

43:22 “I’m not ok.” Don’t worry sweetie, you’re in good company. None of us were ok either. 48:13 JC saying “I’m sorry for what I am” is a very poignant line because if you go back everyone else said “I’m sorry for what I did.” A beautiful and deliberate choice by the writers of this astonishingly moving film.

[@tomaskennedy]

5:16 In the book, John Coffey was 6'8". Michael Clarke Duncan was a little shorter at 6'4", so they gave him platform shoes for the role.

[@Yessirski91]

Funny thing is the actor who played the warden is taller than him (6’7)

[@tomaskennedy]

@@Yessirski91 Yeah, James Cromwell. He was towering over Tom Hanks (and he’s no small fry himself!)

[@A-A-RonDavis2470]

​@@tomaskennedyTom Hanks is actually 5'8". There's a lot of big-time actors that are filmed well above their height, giving them styles of shooting that make them seem taller than they are, for example Tom Cruise. You'd think he's 6', but he's like 5'7".

[@eva11883]

​@@A-A-RonDavis2470everything I can find lists Tom Hanks at 6'0. I have no idea where this 5'8 number came from, you can clearly see in scenes with David Morse (Brutal) who is 6'4 that Tom Hanks is a few inches shorter. Additionally, Barry Pepper who plays Dean, is 5'10 and Hanks is obviously taller than him.

[@j.woodbury412]

They also made his bed smaller to make him appear larger.

[@cy9105]

I raised a son by myself, always felt I had to be strong and not cry in front of him. Childhood issues, but every few years I would watch this movie to get it out.

My (future) wife and I saw this in the theater back when it was first released in 1999 (i think that was the year). I held up until the part when John Coffey is getting strapped in and he starts to quietly sing to himself, "Heaven, I'm in heaven...". That finally broke me and I let out a, "BWUHUHUH" sob. My wife who by then was a sobbing mess looked at me along with a few people seated ahead of us. Thankfully they were crying to and the looks exchanged between us all was, "Yeah, us too!". :)

A mouse's lifespan is approx. 2 years, so 32 lifespans for him and he is still going. Paul is just 108, so he has a long ways to go since the average lifespan for a human is 65 or so. 2080 (65 x 32 lifespans) years at least left + more. It's terrifying and a really heartbreaking ending.

[@davidmoore1264]

@Stone_Horse From the book.....Eduard Delacroix was a death-row inmate incarcerated at Cold Mountain Penitentiary for raping and killing a young girl, then trying to cover up his crime by burning her body. The fire was near an apartment building that caught on fire and killed six more people, including two children. After a lengthy trial, he was sentenced to death by electric chair.

[@mnomadvfx]

@Stone_Horse "Neither do you" For context in the novel Del was sentenced to death for raping and murdering a girl, and then setting a building on fire to destroy the evidence which subsequently killed 6-7 other people. So ye, Del was far from a redeemed soul, even though he did seem genuinely sorry for his actions at the end. The part where you see Del laughing at Percy wetting himself is a glimpse into who he was outside, much as when he grins at Percy after Hal orders him off the block at the beginning.

Have no regrets. Any movie that can be so moving that it makes you touch on feelings you'd rather not feel is a good thing. We all need to experience such strong emotions and feelings.

We have no death penalty, for that I'm grateful but as a warden, who is working with so many different inmates for almost 8 years now, you are also getting in touch with all their stories, their lives, regrets, hopes and dreams. It's not for everyone to work in a place like this but I'm happy. For I'm convinced that what I do here every day has some meaning and purpose.

[@AvilaDreamer]

This movie kills me every time I watch it. No use trying not to cry. Somehow, watching someone else get destroyed by this movie too makes me feel a little better, more normal, more validated for the emotions that always erupt out of me. Thank you for putting yourself through this one. Amazing writing, acting, story, and characters. So deep. Congrats on 20k - you'll be at 100k in no time! Love watching your reactions, hun. Peace and tons of tissues to you! xo

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Thank you!! I appreciate your support!! Let me know if you have any other recommendations!

[@brigadinetype4235]

Wow! As an African American fan of several of your channels, I didn't think I'd see your reaction to this for a while. That said, thank you. You're understanding and compassion for this story is very warm. 😊

[@innercircle341]

What does your identity have to do with it? Bizarre comment.

[@jessc3007]

@@innercircle341 As a fan of moon-pies, your comment in response to his comment in response to this reaction to this movie was very meaningful to me.

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Thank you! Glad you enjoyed this!

[@briez9648]

​@@innercircle341I don't think you realize how many non black people lack empathy for a black lead character or even a good character that is black and in pain. It's disheartening how many choose to not even watch black led movies period. That's why it matters.

[@Quotenwagnerianer]

@@briez9648 That's some racist BS if I ever read any. I know not ONE single person who refuses to watch movies based on the skintone of any of its actors.

[@erivera700]

This is the first reaction of yours that I have seen. Thank you. The pain you felt and the tears you shed are a testament to Michael Clarke Duncan and the amazing talent we took for granted. I'm also happy you took notice of how he was singing to calm himself at the execution. Other reactions have failed to notice that; likely because they were just overcome with emotion. Every actor in this film did a phenomenal job.

[@billfletcher7077]

I’ve seen this movie so many times and it always moves me. However, today, seeing it with you and seeing your emotions, took it to a whole new level.. thank you so very much for sharing your emotions with me because it allowed me to let my emotions flow. When you smiled in my it made my heart sing. And when you cried, I cried with you. thank you, thank you, thank you!

[@cjpreach]

"You tell God the Father it was a kindness you done." Best line in the movie.

[@eddiewinehosen6665]

Not really. He won't say anything to god since god isn't real!

[@cjpreach]

@@eddiewinehosen6665 So you're saying that line wasn't in the movie? Okeydoke

[@MegaForrestgump]

I submit the line "I dreamed of you" is the best.

[@cjpreach]

@@MegaForrestgump That one is pretty great

[@LiteWeightReacting]

So good!!!

[@sk8mafia214]

I always felt sad for Paul because he had to watch everyone he’d known and love die, even Elaine for that matter. I wouldn’t want that kind of torment my own self and for no one else either. Great reaction as always!

[@MarcoMM1]

Great reaction like always, love this movie. The late Michael Clark Duncan said this was the hardest role he had to prepare for. For emotional scenes, Michael Clarke Duncan would recall his father leaving him as a child. There are some fun-facts about it. Fifteen mice were used in the movie. Each spent months being trained to do different tricks. Coffey's bed was built shorter in order to make Michael Clarke Duncan look like a giant He also stated that he was genuinely scared when he had that shotgun pointed at him. I missed reading the books when they first came out and kinda wish I would have read them before watching the movie. And congrats not many people realize at firsts that John Coffey is a Christ figure. He appeared out of nowhere, as if he had just “fallen out of the sky.” He had foreknowledge of future events. He can see the good or evil that is in men’s hearts. He can heal illness and afflictions and resurrect the dead (if it’s not too late). He is innocent, with a pure soul, yet he is made to suffer and die because of the sins and wickedness of others. And even his initials are J.C., just like Jesus. (Recall the scene where John is watching his first-ever flicker show, and the light from the movie projector is illuminating his head from behind, just like a halo: The Christian symbolism is unmistakable) Keep up the good work. And btw you should react to Schindler's List it will break your soul and its another you must watch movie.

[@LiteWeightReacting]

Lots of awesome things you mentioned! Appreciate you sharing! 😊

[@CompaqP920]

Oh no. Schindler's list not done yet? The red coat child... I feel like we sacrifice her on the altor of youtube for subscribers.

[@garytiptin6479]

How about his story being told by a man named "Paul"?

[@robofwonder]

That was a beautiful reaction. I think a lot of us watch reactions to see mirrored what we feel, and there's nothing better than a reactor just letting that emotion spill out in the way we remember our favorite films, music etc. affecting us. Will defninitely be checking out more of your reactions!

[@MrMelharmony1]

i am a 6 ft 2inch , 15 stone man and ive cried every tear with you. one of the finest actors ,in one of the best films ever made. he surely deserved that oscar. what a shame .

[@TheInkdN3rd]

Another thing to add to the JC notes is that Tom's character Paul is name of the man telling the story.

[@mrsrevan1]

Bless your heart young lady, this has got to be the best reaction that I have seen to this all time great movie classic. Thank you.

[@nerulon089]

Around 6 minutes into the video, at the very beginning of the film when you cried a bit, I was thinking: Damn girl, you're going to cry, A LOT! 😉 Beautiful movie, I saw it a couple of times, so I was prepared, but your emotional reaction made me tear up too 😅😂

[@マシュードーラン]

Oooof I knew you were going to be in absolute tears throughout this one. It’s a gorgeous and tragic film…it’s something special

[@gravedigger8414]

Oh wow. Never have I seen this masterpiece destroy someone like you. And all these emotions are pure and earned. Such a great but tragic story. Grew up with this one and it is for sure one of the greatest movies ever made.

[@stedevo3812]

Snotty nose, eyes streaming, finding it hard to work out what you've just seen, yep you've just experienced The Green Mile.

[@kinderjoker]

You know it's gonna be good when she's crying at the introduction 🤣

[@SuperShifty22]

The actor at the beginning that was first to be executed was also the actor that played RAINS FALLS in RDR2

[@LiteWeightReacting]

And I love that!! So cool to see him in this!

[@_Shadoh_]

And a main role in the movie Dances With Wolves which I can only recommend and so much more. He even appeared in the TLOA show recently 😄

[@Parallax-3D]

His name is Graham Greene.

[@shugaroony]

@@Parallax-3D And he's great in everything.

[@bekindandrewind1422]

42:29 --- ok, there's A LOT to unpack here.. --- Yes, John gave Percy the tumor, but there's another part... When John touches people, he sees what they've done. Just as he soaks up their memories, when he touches others, he can put those memories in... So he gave Percy the memories of what Wild Bill did... ---- Watch VERY closely as Percy turns to look at Bill... He's crying because he knows what Bill did... The trauma and the horror of those memories..

[@Xman0220]

God I just wanna give her a hug😢, this one really does just send viewers into a part of themselves that movies really don’t do. Great reaction, it again just feels like I’m watching it for the first time.. continuing the binge!😂

[@stillninja2741]

Loved this reaction. You feel so much and you sharing those feelings with us is adorable. Have you seen What Dreams May Come with Robin Williams? It's one of my favorite movies that he is in and feel you would like it as well. Either way I'll continue to enjoy your reactions.

Michael Duncan had one of the strongest performances that I've seen in any movie with The Green Mile. RIP... He was taken away far too early.

[@Arfy900]

He was a peaceful man. He had the ability to heal people. He could bring the dead back to life. He was unjustly executed. His initials were ....JC

[@unity1016]

I don't think he could raise the dead. That would be why he couldn't "take it back" with the sisters.

[@Arfy900]

@@unity1016 it was a time limit thing. As it was with the mouse. He DID bring it back from death. It’s still an accurate comparison

[@AyetchMusic]

Great reaction! Movie absolutely shreds you. The actors, the plot, and of course Thomas Newman (Composer) with the emotional music. Cant believe it didn't win more awards. Duncan SHOULD have won best supporting actor.
