Micheal C. Duncan was robbed of not getting awards for this performance.

I actually never realized the movie was that long. It's just so good that you don't even notice.

"Give me your hands, boss." This film always gets me ugly crying, John Coffey deserved better. It's even more heartbreaking now that Michael Clarke Duncan has passed away in real life. 💔😢

My now deceased father-in-law and I happened to be reading the Green Mile books independently and unknown to each other at the same time. During a family dinner, the TV in the family room was on, but on mute and a commercial for the Green Mile was playing on the screen. We both froze and said, "That's John Coffey!" One of the few times we saw eye to eye! R.I.P. Ray.

I cried so hard when Tom Hanks asked "what am I going to say, that it was my job?" Such a powerful scene 😢

I met MCD in a diner in Orlando called Angels. Without telling him, I paid for his breakfast + was getting to leave. Before I could, he came up to me, thanked me after I’d said how much I loved his performance + proceeded to put double the amount his breakfast had cost into the charity box the finer had for providing decent breakfasts to poorer kids. He was a giant without camera trickery + a total class act. I wish him the best wherever he moved on to.

Omg. Saw this in the theater. Sobbed out of the theater, in the car, and all the way home. Never had a movie hit that hard in the feels before. I still can't watch the end without crying.

The green mile and Shawshank redemption two of my absolute favorite movies!! And yes, rest in peace, Michael Clark Duncan

Stephen King himself has stated that this is one of the most faithful adaptations of his novels. Frank Darabont knocked it out of the park with this movie. And of course a marvelous performance by Michael Clarke Duncan. He definitely deserved an Oscar for his role in the movie.

I was about 20 when this movie came out... It was DEFINITELY within my top 10 favorites after just the first viewing! I've ALWAYS loved Stephen King's material, but THIS (along with "The Shawshank Redemption", and "Stand By Me"), is among THE BEST movie adaptations of his work... PERIOD! It's truly a timeless piece of work! 👍

No matter how many times I see it, I still cry. Such a great movie.

Yes, Michael Clarke Duncan really seemed to be coming into his own as an actor. He is missed.

I recently rewatched this, and loved the way Del was such a likeable character we could all root for. Then feel sadness from his tortuous execution. All despite being on "death row" for unmentioned crimes. I was even angry at the lady who said something about "the fires of hell" and "Satan's imps are waiting."

One of my all-time favourite movies. Acting, filming and the brilliant casting has already made this movie to a timeless classic

One of the many movies to make me cry 😢

You made me tear up from the beginning cuz this movie makes me cry every time I watch it. It's truly an amazing work of art as was Michael Clark Duncan. That man was awesome and always missed.

This movies is in my top 3, I love it so much. An incredible ensemble cast that inhabit every character they play. I own it on DVD and have sen it more times than I can remember but manage cry every single time I watch it. MASTERPIECE ! Thanks for this one, Minty ❤

Every time I watch this movie, and they're putting John in the chair, tears start welling up and when the switch is thrown, I burst into tears. You gave one heck of a performance, Michael.

RIP, MCD!❤💪👊👍💯

I liked your earlier commentary on this and this is just as great. You're right, "The Green Mile" doesn't feel like three hours long. My family viewed this several times and while we were watching it the first time, it was one of three times I saw my father cry. We were all teary eyed. "Mile" is a powerful, deeply intimate story. I thought it was interesting that the ugly, heinous crime that Coffey was accused of was focused on the same place that Paul's infection was located. It makes you think. Thanks for this video. It's as good as the first one. Keep them coming.

This was an instant watch . I love coming back to this film every now and then . A true classic .thank you minty . One of your best 👌.

MCD and Patricia Clarkson’s scenes were stellar, get choked up with each rewatch. A spectacular movie that seems shorter than it’s long length..

I'm a big Stephen King fan, and this is the only director who has adapted King's work the right way. I love so many books by Stephen King that it's heartbreaking when Hollywood studios think that what makes a good movie is how much you scare people. King's books are more than that!

Every time I watch this film, I'm amazed at how the pacing makes it go by so fast.

Minty, thank you for covering this master piece. This is hands down one of the most emotional films i have ever witnessed. It never ceases to amazing me how much this film hits me every time i watch it. It is literally a masterpiece.

A truly wonderful movie. I've lost count the amount of times I've watched it and yes it's a real tear jerker at the end.

The "I'm tired boss" part always gets me - Tom Hanks was amazing in this movie - but Micheal Clarke Duncan was just the whole movie. RIP MCD

I love ALL your videos! And I myself actually love the longer ones. Just keep doing what you’re doing Minty❤️❤️

A truly magical movie with one of the greatest cast ever!

This movie was so damn heartbreaking. 😔

One of my favourite movies. First time I watched it, I had to go and buy the dvd and watch it again. So brilliant in stirring up so many emotions. No other movie has done so.

One of my favorites and my friend was an extra. So it holds a special place in my heart.

The scene when John Coffey is holding the two girls makes you go from hatred to the end of the movie to LOVE. The spectrum shifts to cheering for him.

I love this movie (as well as Shawshank). Thanks for a good review. But I'm a bit surprised you didn't mention the religious overtones. John Coffey (JC), angels, healing the sick, etc. I'm glad it wasn't an "in your face" aspect of the movie, but I think it was significant.

I just wanted to say "Thank you" for your videos, and your efforts to make them as entertaining as possible... I've seen most if not all that are available on KZfaq... listening to you makes me want to jam out to MEN AT WORK, business as usual.... I love that album.

I have watched this 10+ times and I cried every single time. Love the book, but the film takes it to another level.(and I'm not a fan of book adaptations, but this is so well done)

One of the rare examples of method acting of a benevolent character, usually they "stay in character" when they play a jerk

One of the best films... Ever. And I implore anyone who hasn't seen it, to make a cup of tea, grab some biscuits and a box of tissues and give your evening up to The Green Mile.

One of the best movies of all time and man mr. John Coffey spelled different than the drink. Etched in my memory forever.😊

#1 - it’s actually Darabont and King’s 3rd collaboration at that point. Darabont’s first film was (I think) called “The women in the room”, was based of a Stephen King short story. Then he did Shawshank, then Green Mile was 3rd, then The Mist was his 4th King adaptation into a film.

One of my "keeper movies"!! I am unable to watch the opening scene but never finish watching without sobbing!!

One of my favorite movies of all time. Thanks, Minty for covering this one.

Grips at your heart, spreading the reach to all your emotions. Incredible story that has never had an equal comparable.

Love this one, Minty! Nice work. Thanks for keeping these videos rolling.

This is my favorite movie ever. Seen it everytime I can.

Thanks for the re upload minty! The original video was how I discovered your channel and I have watched pretty much everything on your channel. You're my favorite KZfaqr, keep up the radnezz minty!!!!

Thank you, Minty. One of the best shows on KZfaq

R.I.P. Michael Clarke Duncan

I am not a person that cries easily, but at the end i was bawling like a baby. They chose the perfect cast for The Green Mile.

This is such a great movie! Makes me cry every time.

It’s so good, I honestly never noticed the movie was that long. Quite surprised when you gave the runtime.

Legend bud pure legend . love your work bud

Ab love this movie Minty. A classic never goes out of style 😊

Brilliant, Minty. Thanks, friend

Can't stop thinking of Sam Rockwell as Zefod Beeblebrocks...LOL And Such an underrated actor!

For those wanting more Green mile / Shawsahnk-esque style of movies, I would recommend Shutter Island. It does draw on many similarities of those films.

The movie was well done. If you read the book it's even better. I have to say that the movie was very heartbreaking at the end. Even so, it's a movie I will never get tired of watching, even though I know how the movie ends.

Another fab vid, Minty! On one of my faves, too! 😁 Love the bit about Tom Hanks staying in character around Stephen King, just brilliant 👌 classic film!

Is a great film, and one of the rare occasions you don't notice the overly long runtime.

This has got to be one of my favorite Steven King movies. Although King is known for the horro stories, this movie (and book) is a drama with a supernatural undertones. The other movie that is similar is Stand By Me (based on the short story The Body) which was a coming of age story. I was sad to hear of Duncan's passing. I remember him in not only this movie but also Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins (a funny comedy, IMO)

I have watched this movie several times and will continue to watch in the future.

I still have the little books of this film. I was sent to the Middle East on my first military deployment in 96. The last two books I got when I returned in October.

Frank D also directed "The Myst", along with the actor who played 'Dale' from TWD, who was also in this film.

I was 20 when this came out and didn’t see it until I was 30. I had no idea I was missing one of the best and most powerful compelling films in history.

Minty why did you make me cry all over again?😄nice job as always

Not sure if it's because of the movie, but this was one of the best 10's you have done. Excellent Minty!

I just watched Dances With Wolves, a movie that, like this one, was of over 3-hour length but was so good you didn't mind it. How fitting that Graham "Kicking Bird" Greene is also in this film.

90s films are 🔥. They still hold their test of time

Another connection between the two movies is the cast, William Sadler (Heywood in Shawshank) is the father of the two girls, Jeffrey DeMunn (prosecutor in Andy’s trial) is Harry the guard, and Brian Libby (Floyd in Shawshank) is the sheriff who arrests John Coffey.

The Best Stephen King Adaptation ever! 99% accurate to the books, (Stephen King himself said so) The only thing wrong with this awesome film is the sad fact that, despite all the nominations, it didn't actually win a single Academy Award. I actually saw it before I got to see The Shawshank Redemption but in my opinion, The Green Mile wins hands down. I also didn't think it was too long - in fact I was surprised that 3 hours and 15 minutes had passed after I first saw it. And yes, I left the Cinema with tears in my eyes. Great Video as usual Minty!!!!

This channel is pure gold.

The ending made me cry 😢

Another awesome video minty 👏👏👍

The Green Mile and The Shawshank Redemption are amazing movies. They have such strong rewatch value. The plot, and character development and depth really drag one into their worlds. I have re watched both like 5 plus times. Almost time for more viewings.

Although the ending was sad I absolutely love this film ❤❤❤

I’m a King fan, I bought every book in the serial novel as they came out. The novel brought me to tears and the movie did the same.

Brilliant movie, and yet another great video, Minty.

Michael Clarke Duncan was also in The Island.....it was also pretty good IMO

One the best casted films ever! Tom Hanks, a young Sam Rockwell, Berry Pepper. MCD, Graham Greene, and etc. They were all so good in this film!

I indeed love this movie and love everything you said about it. Great vid Minty, thank you, imma go watch GreenMile

Thank you @minty for covering one of my old time favorite movies. I hate to admit I cried in the theaters.

Love this film. I've re-watched it so many times-last was only few days ago.

Rev. Alden from Little House on the Prairie 🥀.

This is one of my all time favorite movies.

Snot and tears when I watch this film... Nothing but SNOT and TEARS! 🥺🥺🥺 I apologize if that's TMI, but MAN! I'm wrung absolutely DRY everytime I watch TGM...I can't sing the praises of this film enough. Every actor, the established ones as well as the newbies, really gave their all every second of that 3 hrs and 15 minutes... The fact that Stephen King was so happy about this adaptation of one of his most iconic books is awesome. Although not necessary, I know it must feel good for all those working on these projects when the author gives the thumbs up.

Still one of my all time favourite films along with shawshank redemption, simply outstanding film

Great as always! Greets from Germany!

Ironic how the critics said this movie was too long (being 3 hrs and 15 min long), but nobody threw a fit over Titanic, released two years earlier, being “too long”, as it’s one minute shorter than Green Mile.

Well done. I love this movie. I totally agree with your assessment.

Nice video. This and shawshank are 2 of my favorite movies:) Nice shirt btw. Makes me want to go play c64 games on my commodore. Lol

John Coffey was a great character played by an Evan greater actor who be anything from a gangster in the saints row video Game to being a very caring person who has a mentality of a 10 year old when he sees a film as portray in this film. Michelle Clark Duncan was damn good actor who was taken too soon may he R.I.P.

I REALLY ENJOY. UR VIDEOS.....KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK

I still miss Michael Clarke Duncan. 😥

_The Green Mile_ was a remarkable film to me. It sucked me in, made me forget I was watching a movie, it just seemed so real from beginning to end. I had no disbelief to suspend, which for me is rare. ps- _The Mist_ is not to be missed, it is truly hell on earth horror. I'm still convinced that the kid needed to be sacrificed to end the plague.

I’ve watched the DVD version many times ,and can never watch that monsters face who killed the little girls , or his filthy mouth and actions,so brilliantly played !

Extremely well done, Minty. Now please review Razorback!!!

Stephen Kings stories really deserve to be longer than most "normal" movies. His way of setting the mood and creating an immersive world is absolute magic. Nowadays I rarely watch any movies that are shorter than 2 hrs since I really enjoy getting lost inte the stories. I just wish that it was possible to get the 5 hr dirrctors cut of Blood In Blood Out (one of the best movies ever).

Good video mate

The ending was so sad Michael Clarke Duncan gave a fantastic performance god rest his soul 🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹

I love how this is said by John Coffey "You can tell the lord,the father,if you want. That it was a kindness that youd done."
