The Green Mile (DVD)
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.R"
