I love that the movie doesn't tell you what Bitterbuck and Del did, and I love that the novel DOES tell you. Bitterbuck got in a drunken argument with a guy over a pair of boots, and in his anger he crushed the guy's head with a cement block; that might be considered manslaughter in most places, since it wasn't premeditated, and if he hadn't been Cherokee he almost certainly wouldn't have been sentenced to death. What Del did was so much worse: he raped and killed a young girl and set her body on fire to try and get rid of the evidence, but the fire spread and killed 6 other people, including two children. And then he gets burned alive during his execution. Yet somehow King still makes you feel sorry for the guy, though.
Yep, and there is evidence that Del's character was based on a real killer by the same name.
No... I never felt sorry for him.
I always cry in this movie. Michael Clarke Duncan should have got an Oscar.
Fun fact: Michael Clarke Duncan got this role after Bruce Willis recommended him to the studio for it, as they had just worked together on Armageddon. As it became his claim to fame, Duncan would often joke in interviews that he owed Willis 10% of everything he earned.
Did Bruce have an offer to play a role in this?
@@DevinGtv901The warden was also the warden in The Longest Yard with Adam Sandler.
@@DevinGtv901Tom Hanks buddy the tall guy also played in The Rock with Nicholas Cage.
@@DevinGtv901The guy he was talking to on the porch was LT.Dan in Forrest Gump.
"I'm tired of people being mean to each other".....me too John !!!!
18:45 You probably wouldn't want to get fired in that era, actually. This is set during the Great Depression. Thousands upon thousands lost everything when the stock market crashed. whole families were living on the streets or in tents in the center of cities. people were starving to death. Freezing to death during the winter because they couldn't afford heating. Men were lining up at factories and the like for hard labor jobs hoping to be picked for the day to work and most places to work couldn't afford to hire more than a few of them per day. Him getting fired could get him and his whole family homeless overnight. It's the same reason John didn't want them to let him go. Apart from the fact that he was tired of this life and all the pain he felt in the world, if they had let him go they would be fired at the very least, jailed at the worst. Either way their families would suffer horribly. John knew that and so did they.
*If You enjoyed my reaction please leave a Like. That really helps out the channel*
Dude your face in the thumbnail pic😂 I FEEL you bro this movie is so sad but yes such a great beautiful movie!!🫡🙏 DUDE and that guy who plays John Coffee is funny asf too in comedies😂 but yea he’s obviously much more than a funny guy he’s an amazing actor for this one performance alone man can’t praise him enough for his performance in this one gosh it makes me cry every time!! Here we go!😭😂
Dude I also just reminded myself by saying “dude” lol, you gotta react to Tenacious D and the pick of destiny if you haven’t yet😂
Thank-you for such a beautiful reaction !
I'm not even 60 seconds into the vid and I already enjoy the show. I also don't remember what I ate yesterday lol 😂
25:10 when percy comes on screen the face you made is how we all feel whenever we see him in reactions. Hes literally the most hated character in cinema history. Damn good actor
Him and Dolores Umbridge are my 2 most hated. 👍🏻
One of the best Stephen King adaptations, especially the horror elements.
And one of the best casts in a Stephen King film.
I couldn't imagine having a urinary tract infection in a time before antibiotics
I think I would have died at least two times if not for current medical procedures and antibiotics. I had septicemia from a blocked urinary tract with a kidney stone and preeclampsia in my third pregnancy.
I just started watching and am a fan of "the big guy with a big heart." I'm a counselor, and a lot of my job with the guys I work with them is helping them understand Crying is Neurologically Beneficial. It's amazing the relief some of them express having with just a little layer of shame stripped away.
Cry If You Need To!!
In Japan….you don’t know the date of your execution until one hour before…..
Whattt! So you’re sitting on death row not knowing when it’s your time?
@@DevinGtv901 yes sir!!
Neither did their victims so seems fair to me.
Wow 😮
barbaric
Oh man! I didn't realize till the end you made this in 2 parts. Can't wait to see how you react to the rest of the film!!
Don’t worry you won’t be waiting long AT ALL for part 2💪🏿
You an't alive if the Green Mile doesn't make you cry
This was during the Great Depression, their was no jobs 40-50 percent unemployment. If you lost your job you weren’t going to find another one that is why threatened him with eating at a bread line was very serious thing.
Why I love Stephen King’s writing.
Magic in the real world. And there are always more good guys than bad guys,
I have seen EVERY green mile reaction. This one was by far the most entertaining. Can't wait for part 2!!!
😂😂 go outside more
I think if this movie proves anything it's that compassionate people need to be doing that job.
I always like how the old chain gangs have such good harmony
The Green Mile is one of my all time favorites and I loved your reaction to it ❤ Can't wait for part 2, don't let me wait too long okay 😊
Part 2 coming tomorrow😊😊
It's tomorrow. What do you waiting for LOL.@DevinGtv901
There's something I find really funny. People claim to LOVE dogs. They even say they like them more than people. They say dogs are more loyal and more loving than any human. However, the second a person is compared to a dog, it's considered an insult. 😂
You have to remember that older generations didn’t the full bald look. It was unusual.
We are attached to our hair.
Brother I saw this movie in 2000 I was 11 years old. We used to have a black box got all the movies. .. I had school the next day but this movie caught my attention so I just stayed up watching it. Shoot when John Coffey death scene came on I cried my heart out. My dad heard me he came in my room ina panic . When he saw what I was watching . He just sat down next to me. .... Only good memory I have with my dad. But rest in peace . Michael Duncan Clarke. I still cry the same way when his death comes on .
This film is a classic. Great reaction bro! 👍🏿
Micheal clark duncan legendary actor he was this huge in real life and a great person and actor may he rest in piece
He was MONSTROUS!! Definitely a phenomenal actor Rip
While he was a large man, his size was exaggerated for the movie.
The actor that played Dale also passed away ….RIP to both 🙏🏽
Tom hanks and that old guy did a good job of being the same person
"I feel like this song brings back memories to him." (at 4:15) .... you don't know the half of it ... are you in for a ride.
Ohhhh you think the little mouse is nasty?! 😫 I think he's adorable. ☺ I've had several. They're sweeties. Fr.
25:01 That was fantastic seeing you watch him with the spool of thread!! 😅 The circus mouse. 😏
Here’s some on set trivia for you…
When Dell put Mr. Jingles on Tom Hank’s shoulder, he carried it to John. Then Tom wipes his shoulder off so that his uniform would look perfect for Dell’s execution. The truth is the mouse 🐁 pooped on Tom’s shoulder, so that was unscripted and Tom continued like the great actor he is. Also… Michael Clarke Duncan felt uncomfortable during rehearsals about having to grab Tom Hanks’ “private parts.” Also, he was afraid he would hurt Tom. So Tom looked on the set and found an empty water bottle, filled it about 2/3’s full and put it in his pants. That way he would have something he can grab on to and Michael wouldn’t hurt Tom.
Theres a handful of films thatll make me cry EVERY time i watch them, even if i watch them 100 times, this is one of them 😭
Watch "Stay" please it'll leave you speechless and its an emotional roller coaster
I liked your expression when Nilly the Mid was o traduced in the movie. Your expressions are empathetic.
RIP Michael Clarke Duncan (John Coffey), Dabbs Greer (Old Paul Edgecomn / also known as the reverend on Little House On The Prairie), Michael Jetter (Edward Delacroix) ..
They used camera effects and props so it would appear Duncan was much taller than everyone else around him. That's one of the reasons you don't really see a wide shot when the actors are together in a scene. In fact, David Morse (Brutal) and Duncan were roughly the same height. The illusion worked perfectly.
What man would stay at the scene of the crime holding and wailing over his victims?
Glad to see you have your tissues handy. This is such a well done movie with a most excellent cast.
I’ve always loved your reactions! You’re very cute and funny!!! You have the best reactions!
Thank you 😊. I greatly appreciate your support
When Michael Clark Duncan didn’t get the Oscar, that was the last time I watched. I still mad af! He was beyond a gifted actor!
Percy has more poison in his little body than 100 cobras.
Cobras have venom, not poison.
@@clamchowder622 But Percy doesn’t.
Great reaction bro.I don't know the actor playing Percy,but he does a damn good job.everybody hates him.
Sometimes quiet is the best reaction. I don’t know why so many movie reaction people think they have to talk every 3 seconds.
If they don’t TH-cam will take down the video
@@GuardianMinerva no, I’ve seen plenty of other movie reactions that do it right. I believe you can’t show more than 5-6 seconds (of the movie) at a time but some cut in a blurred scene with sound. They will cut back to themselves saying nothing but watching the movie. You don’t have to cut to yourself full screen saying something every 3 seconds. Nick reacts does it well. Media Knights did the Green Mile good.
I’ve watched so many reactions to this amazing movie and this one is by far my favorite one 😂 thank you for this ❤
I'm watching John Coffey react to John Coffey
I’m having a mandala effect cus I coulda sworn I watched him react to this already! Anyone else? No? 😅😂
Anyways big fan and love the video as always ❤❤❤
Yes he already reacted to this with his girlfriend on his other channel
I appreciate you watching and supporting 😊🙌🏾
@@DevinGtv901 of course! Thank you for always providing such great content 😊
@@Malibu_Man I absolutely did NOT bro lol.. I do watch a ton of movies but I don’t remember this one
He did react to this one. I remember when he saw how scared and gentle John Coffey was, he turned to the camera and said 'wooow!'
The fact his initials are JC isn't a coincidence.
I had a uti when i passed a stone. Not only does it hurt, it ALWAYS feels like you have to pee
Michael Clarke was 6’5” and they used camera tricks to make him look even taller.
It’s always interesting to see, in the arrest scene, which reactors take note that we never actually *_see_* what happened, and raise the possibility of some freak accident, or even of John Coffee not having done it at all.
- I am not entirely sure what to make of the fact that those who come down hardest on Coffey initially… have all been Black men,
Really enjoyed your reactions...one of my favorite movies. The two of them both deserve it
Such an amazing movie. Lots of tears, laughs, and twists. Great reaction! Love the channel.
I’m glad you enjoyed my reaction
Could have sworn you did this movie already.
I LOVE the novel - it's a serial novel in 6 parts that were released once a month over 6 months. That's why the movie is kind of "spread out," I guess. Part 1 is called "Two Dead Girls," part 2 is "The Mouse on the Mile," part 3 is "Coffey's Hands," part 4 is "The Bad Death of Eduard Delacroix," part 5 is "Night Journey," and part 6 is "Coffey on the Mile."
The novel makes it VERY, VERY clear how racist this society was in general and how that affected not only Coffey but other people convicted of murder, too. It says straight up that most of the prisoners Paul was in charge of were black and that people of color (Bitterbuck, Coffey) and "foreigners" (Del) who were convicted of murder were much more likely to get sentenced to death compared to white people convicted of murder. Even Wild Bill had more opportunities to appeal compared to the other death row prisoners. I have no idea why some viewers think race/racism wasn't a major theme in the movie; it would've been stupid to make a movie set in this time and place and pretend racism and xenophobia didn't have a big impact on the story.
Stephen King tells the reader at the end of part 1 that Coffey's execution was the last one Paul took part in, and he makes it clear that no one on death row was ever saved at the very last minute, so the reader knows early on that Coffey will be killed. I think that works really well in the novel; the reader isn't reading the last part thinking Coffey might be saved at the last minute, they're just depressed and resigned to the fact that Coffey never stood a chance in Alabama in 1935 despite everything he did to save others. As Paul narrates the execution, he states when and how each person there died, which is depressing (for example, Dean was stabbed in the neck and killed by a prisoner just 3 months later). And the last chapter starts with the heartbreaking story of how Paul's wife died in a major bus crash that killed every passenger except for two, one of whom was Paul. Paul wasn't even seriously injured, but he had to watch his wife die an absolutely horrific death. It really brings home how this "gift" of life he's been given is really a curse.
I like that in the movie the viewer doesn't know what will happen to Coffey, though. That works better for this format, I think.
This film breaks me everytime.😢
The trustee is Harry Dean Stanton. Stephen King made his name two of guards names, HARRY Terwiliger and DEAN STANTON.
@Devin great film, emotional and has such heart in it
First, we saw Forrest Gump and Lt. Dan reunite in Apollo 13, and then again in this one.
I tried to take it back ... is a sentence you will get to know what Michael (John Coffey) means as the movie continues. Yes, those tissues are great as I still can't watch it without any.
Love this movie
Definitely one of my top 10 now
The dad of the 2 murdered girls He liked To listen to hank Williams was in another Stephen king Based movie The Shawshank redemption... Just as amazing as this movie In a different way.. Green mile Shawshank redemption and Hacksaw ridge are some of the most emotional movies
Did he say a black person is like a dog ? he was just comparing Feeling guilty After attacking With primal sense
Michael Clarke Duncan was 6’5” the same as David Morse (Brutal) but with risers and camera angles he appeared taller.
James Cromwell is 6'7". Tough for tall actors to find steady work.
You know the actors did a great job when you actually despise and want to fight some of the characters.
Abingdon that can watch this without crying, u worry about your mental health and the safety of those around you.
So unreal that they cast Harry Dean Stanton, one of the greatest character actors ever, to play “Toot-Toot”, the stand in for Arlen in the rehearsal of Arlen’s execution. Amazing! Even in his small cameo he was great!
Things didn't work 90 years ago like they do now. Percy being abusive was actually more normal at that time than the fairness of the others.
I have been watching you and you wife ever since you started your reaction channel. As soon as I seen you were watching this movie I just knew you were going to love it. I also knew how much you were going to hate Percy lol. This might just be your best reaction yet. It’s certainly my new favorite. Keep up the great work entertaining us as well as you do and I feel like you guy’s are a part of my family.
Oh Devin my boy this is a treat.
Can't wait for part 2
You won’t have to wait long
The story makes several alliterations between John Coffey and Jesus, one of the things I read about it stated that this is how modern America would treat Jesus if he appeared among us today.
Percy Wetmore is the second biggest A-hole in Hollywood history. Right after Delores “Toadface” Umbridge.
I love Sam Rockwell
John Coffee..J.C….you’ll see 😊
MIND BLOWING!
John Coffey’s initials are intentionally J.C. for Jesus Christ, just like Jiminy Cricket (his conscience) from Pinocchio
Hi Devin, a very good movie was a green mile.Btw the Tom Hanks is rhe.old man from the beginning.Greets from Bulgaria man !
"Windtalkers" or "unbroken" would be great to see ya react to. Both great movies you'd like 👍
Noted my friend. Thanks for the recommendations
Another superb Steven King novel/Adaptation!!!
This is a Steven King book made into a movie
In the books the nurse at the retirement home was evil like Percy. Not nice like in the movie but there wasn't enough time to flush out that story with as long as the run time was so they simplified it.
The book laughs about how today you take 2 pills and are fine but back then you had to just piss out an infection.
The rehearsal stand in is Tut Tut. in the books he runs the snack cart that comes through the green mile. If i remember that is where they get the stuff for the mouse's home.
Wetting the sponge directs the electricity down to the brain. If it is dry it will try to spread through the body meaning long painful death.
12:16 haven't seen anyone clarify yet, a DoE is a date of execution
I’m newly subscribed. I am definitely enjoying your commentary.
Drink ya water!
Regards from Australia 👍🏼
Greatly appreciate it
1. Before this is over YOU WILL CRY😭
2. Dabbs Greer/old Paul was ill during production, so his part was done later. He also played Reverend Alden on "Little House on the Prairie".
3. Hammersmith was not a good lawyer. (most likely a racial thing. It was 1935 South.)
4. In the book King briefly covers why the Chief and Del are on death row.
5. This movie was nominated for Best Supporting Actor (MCD) and Best Cast but unfortunately neither won.
6. Players in other King adaptations: Jeffery DeMunn: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist,
Storm of the Century and William Sadler: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist. David Morse: The Langoliers. Patricia Clarkson played Margarat White in King's remake of Carrie". Needless to say, it was a much different part.
this is one of my favourites, i rewatch once in a while.. the music is also brilliant
Agree on the music. That is what drew me to the movie.
Devin G👍🏾😁
🙌🏾🙌🏾
If you can't piss at all then that's a medical emergency, and you should go to the ER, and yell at them until they give you a catheter and a bag.
Hello from Spain. Love your channel.
Where's part 2? Finished part 1, dying to see your reaction to the rest of it.
“fill out an application for prison guard,” they said.
It’ll be fun, they said.
Through most of the movie Michael Clarke Duncan was either standing on something or everyone else was standing inside a ditch to give the illusion that Michael was much bigger than he actually is
Another great reaction Devin, much love from Australia. Again I highly recommend Snowtown 2011, it's a true story based on Australian history!
Good choice..lovelovelove ❤️✌🏻🌷
Percy is a creep in real life too!!!
He looks like it
lovely movie and great reaction
I just watched your reaction to The Sixth Sense. It was awesome! Looking forward to this reaction.
Oh yeah...I forgot what this movie was about too....................................................
I just want to point out this way the days before antibiotics. There weren't many good treatments for infection.
Hello, Devin. Are you rewatching this, or is this are-upload?
I know I've seen your reaction to this already.
Gotta love your hypocrisy in getting butt blasted over Gary Sinese comparing Coffey to a dog but you have no problem whatsoever calling Percy every honophobic insult in the book.
He might have been tired but he took the day off to do a little bit more I believe. He had to make up for lost time
He wasn’t saying a dog was like a black person - he was saying that his dog gave no indication that he might attack his boy and did it spontaneously and so John Coffey, although he seems harmless, must have similarly turned violent.
I noticed Devin interpreted it incorrectly.
Dam yea that’s such a shame that anyone has to even misinterpret that in that way man 🤦♂️ smh such a dam shame man hopefully one day people will never hear things in the worst possible ways and misinterpret stuff to mean something racist or gay or like some pedo type stuff or anything awful like that oops that might upset some gays but oh well delete my comment then YT idgaf, but yea my point is that hopefully one day nobody will misinterpret stuff to hear in the worst ways possible because hopefully such thing like racism and other things will so far from all our minds ya know what im saying? Dam man it’s a dam shame we all have to misinterpret stuff and wonder what exactly someone means when it could be taken completely the wrong way… one day.
It's super easy to make that mistake. Black persons who were equated with animals. This is a time piece where racism was rampant.
He should a racist slur that’s what gave me the interpretation
@@DevinGtv901 ahh it’s been forever since i watched the whole movie i forgot about that, that makes way more sense why you would think of his comparison in that racist way bro, but dam ya know what?… I was gonna say I think that’s probably just for the setting to make it more realistic and believable for the time period and the setting but ya know what, dam that might have been a racist comparison as well as just to say that sometimes wether it’s man or dog or whatever they may be always fine and nice and one day just become violent for some reason. Dam! I never even considered that before, but that does actually make sense if he was meaning in a racist way too dam… I’m not totally sure on the racist part of making that comparison, but I am totally sure about the other part of it to just say that someone or something could be friendly but then just one day they could change. Man I can’t wait for u to finish that part 2 bro this movie is sooo dam good it’s ironically so beautiful and wholesome and pure and yet it’s sooo sad and has so much darkness and just straight up evil ugliness in it too. I can’t praise this movie enough or all their performances!! They all KILL TF out those roles, I REALLY can’t stand Percy and Billy the kid whatever his name his they are so good at being so hate-able and ofc the dude who plays John coffee, Tom hanks, Dale, Mr Jingles!!! And the rest of the cast were all just so great man. Aw man it feels like you lived an entire lifetime and learned so much when you reach the end of that movie dam why is all the best movies and games n stuff so dam sad!! I CANNOT get through this movie without crying man it’s just too much hurt!!!! 🙏😭 one my top favorites and one of the best ever FOR SURE!!!
As someone with a thick mane of hair, that gets thicker with age, I do not know why ppl with a "George Jefferson" hairstyle keep the hair. Let it go I say. I mean my hair just gets everywhere and the upkeep is to much sometimes.
FYI, in 1935 prisoners were also segregated to stop fighting. Well except for death row. One of the men crucified with Jesus was a murderer and received forgiveness at the last hour.
John Coffey is an INFP. There is no mistake. The INFP are some of the most beautiful, compationate people out there. Billy the kid is a turbulent ESTP. Brutus is an ISTP-A
