Feature film DVD starring Tom Hanks.

THE GREEN MILE, based on a Depression-era tale by Stephen King, tells the story of the unusual bond that is formed between Paul Edgecomb, a Louisiana security guard, and John Coffey, a gentle and gigantic inmate on death row.

Director Frank Darabont's second adaptation of a Stephen King prison tale (the first being 1994's nearly flawless THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION) is a hopeful charmer with a hint of the supernatural. The story focuses on Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks), a Louisiana security guard who works on death row during the Great Depression. When John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan), a gigantic black man convicted of raping and murdering two white girls, joins the other prisoners on the row, Paul's life is forever altered. Coffey doesn't fit the mold of a psychopathic killer; he's kind, gentle, and afraid of the dark. As the story progresses, Edgecomb learns that there is something more than simple goodness to Coffey. Building to a hopeful climax, Darabont once again proves that he is King's most loyal cinematic translator. The film features uniformly excellent performances in leading and supporting roles, notably Duncan as Coffey; David Morse and Barry Pepper as Hanks's fellow prison guards; and Michael Jeter as condemned killer Edward Delacroix.

Theatrical release: December 10, 1999. Most of the film was shot on the soundstage on the set of Cell Block E, the film's death row cell. The remaining scenes were shot in Nashville Tennessee, and Blowing Rock, North Carolina. Tom Hanks elected to bulk up, weight-wise, for this film so that he seemed intimidating as a prison warden. Although Michael Clarke Duncan had previously appeared in films such as FRIDAY and BULWORTH, his role in THE GREEN MILE dramatically raised his profile. Certain VHS and DVD versions include the behind-the-scenes documentary WALKING THE MILE. THE GREEN MILE won People's Choice Awards for Favorite Motion Picture and Favorite Dramatic Motion Picture at the January 2001 ceremonies.

Green Mile Quotes/Excerpts:

"This big man is about to pull off your ears. Aren't you going to listen to him?"--Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks), regarding John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan) "On the day of my judgement, when I stand before God, and he asks me why did I kill one of his true miracles...what am I gonna say? That is was my job? My job?"--Paul Edgecomb to John Coffey

Green Mile Reviews:

"...There are several sequences of powerful emotion in the film....It tells a story with beginning, middle, end, vivid characters, humor, outrage and emotional release..." -- Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

"...[A] powerful and meticulously crafted drama....Hanks excels..." -- Todd McCarthy, Variety

"...[Hanks] is on par with his career-best work....A long walk to a worthwhile destination..." -- Rating: A- -- Bruce Fretts, Entertainment Weekly

5 stars "Green Mile" a terrific film
My daughter introduced me to Stephen King, and this film version is superb with excellent performances all around, particularly Tom Hanks (Paul Edgecomb) and Michael Duncan Clarke (John Coffey). It is one of those films you never forget and that any serious film buff, Stephen King fan or not, should have in their collection. It strikes the viewer on so many levels, from the horror of a maliciously botched execution to the scenes depicting the sublime healing powers of the innocent John Coffey. Coffey is what could be referred to as a "celestial being," endowed with almost angelic, supernatural powers, totally innocent, loving, and filled with compassion. We find ourselves greatly moved when his execution is implemented, but both Hanks and Clarke take us on that journey with them. Tom Hanks, as a mature and highly skilled actor, acts from the inside out. He makes us know what he is thinking and feeling. When John Coffey dies it is not that he is conquered by evil; he simply cannot live in a world lacking proper love and he cannot endure the pain people cause each other. He is ready to go to the Father. We are left to think hard on good and evil in the world and the closeness which is possible between human beings. An astounding film on many levels and highly recommended.

Though HARRY POTTER AND THE PRISONER OF AZKABAN director Alfonso Cuaron still holds the crown for best film in the series, David Yates is making an attempt at a coup with HARRY POTTER AND THE HALF-BLOOD PRINCE. Dark, gleefully funny, and beautifully shot, this adaptation of J.K. Rowling’s novel should please fans despite numerous changes to the 650-page source material. In this sixth film in the series, Harry’s (Daniel Radcliffe) inevitable confrontation with the dark wizard Voldemort grows closer, and Hogwarts headmaster Dumbledore (Michael Gambon) wants the young student to be prepared. He guides Harry through a memory of a young Voldemort, but an important moment is missing. Harry must extract this memory from the new Hogwarts teacher, Horace Slughorn (a perfectly slimy Jim Broadbent), who is as eager for fame as he is reluctant to revisit this painful moment. Meanwhile, romance rules the school of witches and wizards, with Hermione (Emma Watson) and Ron (Rupert Grint) refusing to admit their feelings for each other. Harry also harbors a secret love of his own: Ron’s younger sister, Ginny (Bonnie Wright). But despite his crush, Harry keeps an eye on Snape (Alan Rickman) and Draco Malfoy (Tom Felton), who may be responsible for attacks on the school. HALF-BLOOD PRINCE deftly balances the humor of Hogwarts heartbreak and the thrills of dark villains attacking the school. The cast is as talented as ever, and the youngest members--Radcliffe, Grint, and Watson--have ...
