You know what I cant understand is how Michael Clarke Duncan didn't get an Oscar for this role. He was amazing and made the movie. One of the best performances I've ever seen. Amazing performance.
Have to agree. He was nominated that year, but lost to Michael Caine for The Cider House Rules. Both incredible performances, but only one of those films stood the test of time. Ducan's performance was extraordinary. The world lost him too soon.
It's pretty obvious why. Only three black men had won an Oscar for best supporting actor before The Green Mile, and he was only the 10th black actor even nominated for that award. And Cuba Gooding Jr. got one just three years earlier, so it was "too soon" for another. It wouldn't be until 2004 when another black actor won that award (Morgan Freeman in Million Dollar Baby).
@@Justin.Franks Please don’t pull the race card. Did Duncan give a Oscar worth performance…..yes, in this case so did Mr. Caine. So I am pretty sure it came down to the advertising and the campaign for said Oscar. I can’t say Mr. Duncan Got screwed over as badly as when Mickey Rourke lost to Sean Penn. That was a political decision pure and simple. And yes studios Mount campaigns for Oscars
Because it's a cult symptom based on political agendas and assets... It was created to lift their own statuses as celebrities and pat each other on the back. People know how good he is in this movie, shouldn't need a rich cult to hand out statues for you to accept that.
The Green Mile was a short story by Stephen King, but this was adapted into a movie by Frank Darabont. The same guy who turned Shawshank Redemption into a movie from another short story written by Stephen King. Dude knows his stuff!!
@@yoru4110 Another short story that was adapted for a movie was The Body, which became Stand By Me! Many of King's stories/books became movies, Misery, Christine, Carrie, Needful Things, etc.
"On the Day of my Judgement. . . ." that whole bit just RIPS my heart out & makes me tear up every time! You could hear in the quaver in his voice that he was legitimately SCARED of the approaching DAMNATION he was facing & was "pleading" with J.C. to give him the answer to how to avoid it.
And I just realized, after reading the serial volumes when they were first released over 6 months in 1996, that John Coffey has the same initials as Jesus Christ.
RIP Michael Clarke Duncan. Too young. He was also convincingly terrified in the move The Island, where he played a football star, and one of the winners who got to go to The Island.
That end scene with John Coffey always gets to me no matter if I'm watching the movie itself for the hundredth time or watching people's reactions to it. Good job with this one! Keep up the good work!
One of my all-time favorites. The performances in this are stellar. Impactful movies take you on a ride of emotions, this one surely did. Loved your reaction to it.
it's been almost daily for me at this point, or every other day, it seems. sometimes it feels good to cry, but this is one of those movies that's so important and impactful, in my opinion
I enjoyed the movie too. And it is definitely higher than my top five. It is in my top three. It must have been an awfully advanced prison for back in 1935, having cellophane tape and all for putting over Percy's mouth.
Oh, here's a little piece of trivia. The actor who played the old Paul, Dabbs Greer, was the actor who played the Reverend Alden on Little House On The Prairie.
You two are the cutest and sweetest! You make me miss my husband all the more. (He passed away in 2018.) This movie is one I watch over and over, and it was one of my husband's favorite movies.
This is the saddest movie I've ever seen. Makes me cry every time, even if I'm watching a reaction and not the whole thing. The reason is simple: there's no greater tragedy than a good person being dealt an unfair hand in life, and Michael Clarke Duncan gives this character such a big heart (surely in the top 3 more wholesome character to most people) that anything south of happiness is an unfair hand. So you spend most of the movie with an increasing saddness as you learn how much the balance between what he deserves and what he's getting keep getting more uneven. Then, suddenly, you learn this is what he wants, and there's two seconds of relief, until he explains why, and you realise this poor man's been tortured by his empathy throughout his whole life and his life has been a literal hell. And now you're crying both because of his death and because of his life. R.I.P Michael, you too have brought life into this world but taken away far too soon.
This Movie is MIND BLOWING!! There are So Many Twists, & Turns. So many Emotions! When we went To see this, Back when it first came out In theaters. We All came out of the Theater Sniffing, and wiping tears 😭. But I read an Exert for the Stephen King Post's, and Apparently he Baised the Character, Jon Coffee on a Short Bible Passage about people who were GOD Given Forces of Nature. Forces that Had various Abilities. One those were the Power to Heal! And the fact that Jon was Bare foot, and the First thing he Did when he Got out of his Cell was to Pickup, and Smell the Leaves 🍂! His connection to the Earth is Key! That's also why The House Shook when Jon Heald The Warden's Wife. He had to Draw More Earth energy ⚡ to Battle That Stubborn Tumor!
Stephen King wrote it as a redemption theme. JC = Jesus Christ =John Coffey. Healer. Satan is Beelzebub, Lord of the Flies, author of sickness, which is what John was sucking out of people.
I've only just found your channel, but immediately I can see there's something wholesome and really special about it. The way you both cuddle up together is absolutely lovely to see. The Green Mile is an emotional ride, but I almost see it as a rite of passage. It's such an incredible movie, with a great story, great characters, and a great score. I still remember renting the DVD from Blockbuster back in the day, and I had no idea what I was getting into. About halfway through I realised that John might actually die, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. When the end came, I was in floods of tears. This was such a great reaction from you both. And, along with others, I don’t know why Michael Clarke Duncan never got an Oscar for his amazing performance in this.
By far one of the best reactions I have ever seen. You guys had all the right feels at all the right times. Just re-watched this video again. My favorite movie and my new favorite reactors.
I don't know how many times I've seen The Green Mile back in 1999 when it first came out. It doesn't not fail in bringing tears to my eyes. It's a very powerful movie and the entire cast was stellar especially Michael Clarke Duncan. Thanks for this movie reaction viewing. You two are awesome. Take care.
Great reaction. I always think of Doc Roe's grandmother from band of brothers when I see John Coffey if you remember he mentions in the fox hole that she was a Trateur or a healer from Louisiana 😁 Keep the reactions coming love the Chanel ❤️🏴
In the Bible.... It does talk of mystery Angels living in human form able to do miraculous things including healing. Jon Coffey may have been one of those angels.
You guys are really amazing. Love your reactions especially to this one. Your emotions and reactions are so raw. I really loved the look on your faces at those pivotal parts and your sense of humor at those pivotal parts. You left in all the best scenes that many reactors cut out. That makes me so happy that you did because those are the parts we want to see reactions to. And may I say, I really am touched at the way you guys look at each other when certain things occurred. You can see in those looks how close you two are and that is such a great thing. Remember John Coffy's lawyer said that he didn't seem to exist before the girls died? That he "just fell out of the sky"? Take his initials.... who else do you know with the initials J.C.? I've heard of an interview with Stephen King. He didn't come right out and say that's who John actually was. But he did go out of his way to point out John's initials. Also, the attorney who prosecuted Andy in Shawshank is one of the guards in this movie. You'll also find that Dean in this is Jackson the sniper from Saving Private Ryan which Hanks also stared in. Anyway, thank you for your channel.
I've been watching movies since the '50s and the call back to "Cheek To Cheek" combined with the "please don't put me in the dark" and the old Jingles reveal add up to the most devastating film ending I've ever experienced.
My first time watching y'alls reaction and you did this one justice. The Green Mile is an awesome movie, and I 'm glad I randomly found your reaction to it.
Glad you watched this. Now after Shawshank and The Green Mile, you should do another Stephen King adaptation - Misery - featuring an Oscar winning performance by Kathy Bates. Always love the reaction when people get to the, "Boss, I needs to see ya." scene.
I love it when her husband laughs. It is the funniest thing ever because usually what he's laughing at really IS funny, and when he laughs it just makes me laugh harder. When they reacted to Fury, and the dude that was giving the new kid a hard time, he was cracking up, and I just busted out laughing.
Frank Darabont is one of the best screenwriters and adapters of novels. Obviously the Stephen king story is incredible, but the entire production of this movie is amazing. The soundtrack is perfect also.
10:17 I always love watching people react to this part. Either people get it right away or they don't get it until he says "again." You guys did one of each.
@@Hal2718 - He goes on to spell it as "K.... O..." though, so either he can't actually spell like he said/thought or his initials are "K.C." and not "J.C.". Or am I completely misremembering him spelling out the first two letters of his name in the jail cell? Admittedly I've only re-watched it through reaction videos and I think only one reactor included that part of the scene, so I might not remember it right.
@Justin Franks, Did race play a part? I can't say and I won't speculate on it. I will say that thanks to the preservation of modern media Michael Clarke Duncan's phenomenal performance will be seen and enjoyed by countless people of all ages for years to come. That's the greatest gift he could've possibly left us.
John means Beloved and coffe", sounding like but not the same meaning a different meaning, Cough (y) meaning the state of many times coughing(out death, pain and evil) The beloved who sucked in pain suffering evil and death and then coughed it out for to deliver others.
I was waiting for y'all to watch "The Green Mile" after you watched "The Shawshank Redemption"! Same writer (Stephen King) and same director (Frank Darabont) for both movies! Two guys who put two master pieces together!
The Green Mile is one of my favorite books and movies. Not Stephen Kings usual style but I loved it. Actually the only movie I’ve ever cried during and the book was even sadder.
I always assumed John was a traiteur, what the Creole in Louisiana colonial times called a faith healer. Heard about them in Band of Brothers. The medic Eugene mentions his grandmother from Louisiana was a traiteur and could heal people just by putting her hands on them.
So just for reference, Stephen King has said in interviews that the character of John Coffey is a cinematic representation of the story of Jesus Christ. A young to middle aged castaway, initials of JC, burdened to pay for the sins of others, with nothing but pure love in their heart. And actually Del and Wild Bill play a very significant role in this representation. Del’s name was Edward Delacroix. Delacroix meaning “of the cross”. Del played the role of the thief on the cross that was asking for repentance and was sincerely sorry for what he had done. Wild Bill was thief that mocked Jesus and suffered a horrible death. The storytelling in this movie is immaculate. King was in his bag writing this story. And every cast member played the story so good. People literally HATE Percy. Doug Hutchinson did an incredible job playing Percy.
I love it when people see the flies for the first time...... I always point out that this man wander around helping/healing those that needed it, not taking anything for it, died for doing what he believed was right no matter what "mans laws" said and his initials are J.C. Thinking about this during a re-watch, you see the movie differently.
Even though you guys don't talk much, your faces say everything! Gladly subscribing! This movie is a masterpiece for sure, all the writting and acting is just brilliant. "that actor" who plays Brutal is David Morse, one of the mos underrated actors in Holloywood IMO. It looks to me that you like fantastic stories, so I would like to recommend another Tom Hank's iconic movie: Castaway
Another phenomenal movie, Tom Hanks is an amazing actor, and was brilliant in this. This has been seen by me over 25 times too, that's how good it is, and always brings tears to my eyes, anyone who doesn't have tears in their eyes at the end of this, has no heart. Hope you recovered to getting wisdom teeth out, I got my lower wisdom teeth out, and had to get my gums cut to get them out, getting 9 stitches in each gum.
He visto muchas reacciones sobre esta película, pero la de ustedes me pareció la más realista y sentida. Me miré los 45 minutos del videos atentamente y lograron trasmitir toda la emoción que les hizo sentir esa película, la cual para mí, es una de las 5 mejores películas que he visto en mi vida. Sigan así, saludos y felicitaciones desde Uruguay.
Frank D & Stephen King. This mix gave us 2 of the best movies of all time. (Of course only for viewers who can get emotionally involved with the characters).... btw. great reaction.
"I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I'm tired of never having me a buddy to be with, to tell me where we's going to or coming from, or why. Mostly, I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world every day. There's too much of it - it's like pieces of glass in my head, all the time. Can you understand? "-John Coffey The greatest single quote in cinema history. To think if more people in this world grasped that concept.....

I have seen this movie at least 100 times. I have cried every time I watched it. A true masterpiece.
true
Same
If you don't cry during this movie, you are not human lol.
I think it’s a true depiction of how bad the world really is. We truly lost a great human RIP MDC ❤
Same, whenever I need a good cry I'll put the movie on and just bawl my eyes out. I love this movie. ❤❤
Stephen King really is a master storyteller. One of my favorite movies of all time - glad you guys enjoyed it!
To be honest I think he's hit & miss. But his hits are great!
The Green Mile was a short story by Stephen King, but this was adapted into a movie by Frank Darabont. The same guy who turned Shawshank Redemption into a movie from another short story written by Stephen King. Dude knows his stuff!!

I am grateful to Bruce Willis for recommending Michael Clarke Duncan for this role after working with him in Armageddon.
I cry every single time, no matter what reaction video I watch to this. The most beautifully written movie. Just beautiful.
RIP Michael Clarke Duncan. Too young. He was also convincingly terrified in the move The Island, where he played a football star, and one of the winners who got to go to The Island.

I'm always up for a new reaction to this movie when I want to bawl my eyes out 😭
Like Forrest Gump reactions 😭😭
it's been almost daily for me at this point, or every other day, it seems. sometimes it feels good to cry, but this is one of those movies that's so important and impactful, in my opinion
When Paul said to John on the electric chair "may God have mercy on your soul, what he really meant was may God have mercy on MY soul.
When John Coffey punished Percy he also saved the patients at Briar Ridge from the abuse they would otherwise have suffered.
This is one of the best movies ever made, definitely top 5!!! Can't wait for your reaction, after all Stephen King never disappoints 👍
I enjoyed the movie too. And it is definitely higher than my top five. It is in my top three. It must have been an awfully advanced prison for back in 1935, having cellophane tape and all for putting over Percy's mouth.
R.I.P To A Great Actor Michael Clarke Duncan, Still Miss You Always 😢 & Great Reaction Guy's
"He was trying to save those two girls, he must have found them like that."
Very good! They were too far gone into death though. "It was too late"
Oh, here's a little piece of trivia. The actor who played the old Paul, Dabbs Greer, was the actor who played the Reverend Alden on Little House On The Prairie.

Love this movie the one question I always have is old is John. Enjoy
This movie is just sad. R I P Micheal Clarke Duncan. You will be missed. Never read the book, but the consensus is that John Coffee is an Angel.
some of if not the best acting you will ever see in any movie... a true classic .
John gave them both extra life. Now you wonder how old John is.
This is one of my favorite movies! So many Tom Hanks movies are classics.
You two are so cute together ^^
Loved the reaction of the first healing and the resulting effects :D
I agree with all those comments before mine. You two made this even better for me. You are treasures, thank you!!!

Awesome rection guys! Loved it! Thanks so much!
20:53 Shoshana: This movies really funny, if only she knew her future self
If you haven't already seen Big Fish (2003) i would really recomend watching it. It's really good and it's similar to Forrest Gump too.
First reactor to spot the stuttering inmate I've seen! Have you seen "Saving Private Ryan"? Guard Dean was the sniper!
The actress who plays Melinda Moores also played Elliott Ness's wife in 'The Untouchables.'
...and Olive Penderghast's mom ;-)
Patricia Clarkson (Melinda) would also go on to star in the Maze Runner films with Barry Pepper (Dean)
What a great movie this is, but your reaction is one of the best I've seen, well done!
I always assumed John was a traiteur, what the Creole in Louisiana colonial times called a faith healer. Heard about them in Band of Brothers. The medic Eugene mentions his grandmother from Louisiana was a traiteur and could heal people just by putting her hands on them.
John Coffee was a succubus if you read the Bible you could see this the things coming out of his mouth are called Nats and are similar to flies.
A great reaction from her to a fantastic film!, although I couldn't shake off the impression that he's seen it before.
So just for reference, Stephen King has said in interviews that the character of John Coffey is a cinematic representation of the story of Jesus Christ. A young to middle aged castaway, initials of JC, burdened to pay for the sins of others, with nothing but pure love in their heart. And actually Del and Wild Bill play a very significant role in this representation. Del’s name was Edward Delacroix. Delacroix meaning “of the cross”. Del played the role of the thief on the cross that was asking for repentance and was sincerely sorry for what he had done. Wild Bill was thief that mocked Jesus and suffered a horrible death.

If you guys are in for a really good science fiction, do "Interstellar" (2014) with Matt McConaughey. And you may want to keep the Kleenex nearby. 🖖😎
The bright side of this film is that John was finally at peace. Remember after Del's botched execution, John commented that Del was the lucky one.
Great!! Now you should do "Cool Hand Luke" with Paul Newman
Some brilliant filmmaking when the flicker show reveal elicits the exact same reaction from the viewer as it did Paul at the beginning.
Coming over to watch this epic film with y’all. Just finished Gladiator. 😊Love your reactions. 😊
He visto muchas reacciones sobre esta película, pero la de ustedes me pareció la más realista y sentida.
Me miré los 45 minutos del videos atentamente y lograron trasmitir toda la emoción que les hizo sentir esa película, la cual para mí, es una de las 5 mejores películas que he visto en mi vida. Sigan así, saludos y felicitaciones desde Uruguay.
The old man who played the older Paul Edgcomb was NOT in the Shawshank Redemption
Lol your reactions are so good. Such a classic movie
I love your reactions...
For another period movie set in the south please watch Fried Green Tomatoes starring Cathy Bates
Oh this is about to be a 🔥reaction
Another great reaction to another perfect movie
Another (almost) one location movie based on a King novel is "Misery".
Great movie, but I think the hobbling scene should have stayed true to the book!
@@trumphatesyou That's the reason I didn't enjoyed The Shining as much as one should have.
Every damn time this movie gets me, hat-off big man, rest in peace.
Frank D & Stephen King. This mix gave us 2 of the best movies of all time. (Of course only for viewers who can get emotionally involved with the characters).... btw. great reaction.
YOU TWO ARE A BEAUTIFUL COUPLE, JOHN COFFEEY WAS AN ANGEL ON EARTH
Love y’all’s reaction videos. 🖤🖤🖤
My new favorite reactors!!!!!
"I'm tired, boss. Tired of bein' on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. I'm tired of never having me a buddy to be with, to tell me where we's going to or coming from, or why. Mostly, I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world every day. There's too much of it - it's like pieces of glass in my head, all the time. Can you understand? "-John Coffey
The greatest single quote in cinema history. To think if more people in this world grasped that concept.....
How do We know that Sparrows are Lonely in the rain?
Remember, in the beginning of the movie that old man started bawling when he seen this movie
That's it. I'm all in tears again.
This Movie is the best Stephen King book adaptation by far and one of the best Movies ever made!
never fails to make me cry.
Great Reaction 😊 check out Gran Torino and Million Dollar Baby. Excellent movies as well
Love your reactions
