    FYI: During the Depression, there were no antibiotics -- the first one developed, penicillin, was put into use in 1943. So even if the Tom Hanks character had seen a doctor for his urinary tract infection, there's likely not much he could have done for him (Unless there was an herbal remedy for the symptoms available at the time).

    John is an empath. To the Nth degree. That’s why he feels everything. John didn’t know why he did the things he did, he just did them. Every time he healed someone, it left a scar on him. He wanted to go, he went out on his terms. He kept the truth from the girls’ parents so they could have closure. And truly, I think John was glad to go out among people who loved him, people who treated him with kindness. The first time I saw it, I sobbed uncontrollably (I saw it in the theater 100 years ago). I didn’t watch it until years later when I made my daughter watch it. I couldn’t. I think the point I took home from this story is that we all can do better. Be better. Treat folks with dignity and grace. You don’t have to be spiritual to do those things. Just be a better human….you never know who’s going to come into your life; how they will affect you or visa versa. I don’t think Paul was supposed to be a punishment. I think it just happened because John did need him to know what really happened. John never meant that as a punishment. By yes, Paul has guilt. I think that is also very much part of the human experience, isn’t it.

    Great choice, bunny. It was great to see you react to such an interesting story. Stephen King published the novel serially with installments every month, as was done centuries ago in magazines.
    The man dancing and singling in the old movie is Fred Astaire. I think he must be very modest because I saw him once, probably in the 50s, on an old game show called "What's My Line" where a panel would try to guess someone's occupation, or, for celebrities, actually their identity. The panelists, who were doing the guessing, had to be blindfolded or they would recognize the celebrity. They were trying to figure out who Fred Astaire was. One of the panelists, a woman, asked him if he was a singer and he said, "No." After they had figured out who he was and the blindfolds were off, she said to him, "I asked you if you were a singer and you said, 'No.' You're one of the greatest singers in the world." He said, "I just don't think so." Modest.

      John's ability to raise the dead and heal the sick! Something that Jesus himself did according to the Bible!
      John referred to God as "God the Father", which is the way Jesus also referred to God!
      Only God or Jesus would be able to initiate killing of humans!! I know that sounds ironic since they're on death row and here we have humans putting humans to death for their crimes but, we can put that aside because we do know that they were tried and found guilty by a jury of their peers which is the way that it could be legally done and we can question the morality of it at another time!!

    The year 1935 saw the highest number of Death Sentences carried out! In total: 199!
    Even though this Masterpiece of Film always makes me cry (Train to Busan, too) I love this Movie very much!

    "Ben Hur" (1959) is another great film that can be enjoyed without subscribing to the religious themes.

    Coffe was an empathy angel. Empathy can help when there's hurt. I even had an empathic chicken, 4 months old, who tried to comfort me when I strained my back. Wild Bill was a total psychopath, and was thus not truly responsible. Like a lion killed those girls. He was put down but didn't suffer nor was he executed with the competence to understand that execution is just. Del knew he did wrong, and understood this was the inevitable end of his foolishness. Percy knew what he did was wrong but wouldn't stop nor could he be stopped. The mile is life, green, sometimes long, sometimes short but always ending. The guards are the dynamics of life, sometimes sympathetic, sometimes indifferent.
    That pain you feel when you see pain is empathy. It's very different from sympathy. The guard had sympathy but when Coffe gave him empathy he couldn't do that job any more.

    If you recall near the beginning of the movie, Paul said that he was in charge of one block of the prison, the one where executions were carried out.

    Stephen King writes really good grounded stories even when he adds supernatural elements they feel like they happen in a real place for some reason he just has a knack for creating sympathetic characters. It’s funny to think that people consider him the king of horror and stuff like that when really all of his works are just about the human condition.

    Great reaction like always, love this movie. The late Michael Clark Duncan said this was the hardest role he had to prepare for. 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. 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.

    I am not sure if this helps but I feel that John's only ever experience of being truly alive was when he was on the Green Mile. He was truly loved and valued by many but he also took control. His own choice to punish Percy (and protect those at Brier Ridge) which led to a near pain free death for Bill could be seen as vengeful even flawed but he was completely new to such things; nearly a child, but on that day he acted rather than just reacted.

    I am a Christian, but you don't have to be one to appreciate this movie. I don't believe in ghosts, but I enjoyed "Ghostbusters" and the universe they created. I don't believe in the matrix. Or the planet Krypton. John Coffey never says his power comes from God. But he believes in God, as does Paul. Many people in the world do, so that's easy to accept -- that these characters believe. Where John's power comes from and how it works will always be a mystery. Paul believes he and Mr. Jingles somehow got some of John's power through him giving it to them, but we don't really know that's what happened. It's okay that not all questions are answered. That's the way life is. I enjoyed your reaction!

      As for its connections to God? Errrraaahhhaaaaa... ill defined at best....

    The most epically poignant last line ever. Never heard it without goosebumps. Loved your reaction. Very appropriate response. I read the novel some years ago on my commute to and from work. My journey ended with maybe a chapter to go. Stepped through my door and told my wife"give me a minute"and finished it immediately. I just couldn't wait. Cried like a baby! Couldn't even explain to my wife what was wrong. Every time I tried I started bawling again. Stephen King is a fantastic storyteller and Frank Darrabont seems able to translate his(King's) narrative to the visual perfectly. Everybody should see this movie at least once.

    Suuuuch a beautiful movie. I'm not religious either, and I don't really give much thought to religious symbolism with King's books and movies. Pain, suffering, transformative journeys and shining a light in dark places are fairly common themes with him, and he really knows how to serve it up in a hundred different ways with compelling storytelling. The ending doesn't seem fair after all they had to go through, you know they deserved better, but then that is the final emotional gut puch that drives it all home for this movie.

    I understand your points. This is one of those stories that is so intrinsically emotional that intellectual analysis runs into a panic room. I actually read the brilliant Stephen King novel first, which captured me in the same way, so I knew when I saw the film was going to happen and still wept because every aspect of the film is on point. I didn't find the story itself particularly religious as in promoting a religious agenda, but under the surface of its death row atmosphere has a mystical longing using its isolated setting and place in time metaphorically regarding human understanding of the protagonists vs.the nihilism of really evil antagonists. One of my favorite scenes in the film is when Arlen aka Chief is talking to Paul about the time in his life when he was most happy. It's such a quiet scene, beautifully acted, which doesn't make big ta-das! about religious revelations, but is all about solace and comforting. What do you think? Beautiful reaction btw.

    San Quentin used the gas chamber, and cyanide.

Chessman himself eventually got the treatment, after 12 years and a then-record eight stays. (Although he was a truly bad egg, he murdered no one.)
