The Green Mile (Blu-ray) (Widescreen) - Save $12 for $7.88
Miracles happen in unexpected places, even on death row at Cold Mountain Penitentiary. There John Coffey, a prisoner with supernatural powers, brings a sense of spirit and humanity to his guards and fellow inmates. Tom Hanks leads a stellar cast (including Michael Clarke Duncan as Coffey) in this emotional, uplifting story of guards and captives; husbands and wives; prisoners and a remarkable mouse named Mr. Jingles; and, on another level, of a moviemaker and his source. Frank Darabont returns after his 1994 directorial debut "The Shawshank Redemption" to adapt another Stephen King tale into a crowd-pleasing entertainment nominated for four Academy Awards(R), including Best Picture.
I think this boy's cheese slid off his cracker.
If you have a chance, check out Michael Clarke Duncan (John Coffey) in The Finder series. Available thru Hulu and elsewhere. It was his last work before his untimely death and is pretty good IMO.
@zippy the pinhead: I thought he was good, just didn't care much for the series.
Paul [ brings Coffey some cornbread]: It's from my missus. She wanted to...thank you.
John Coffey: Thank me for what?
Paul: Well, you know. [looks around, then whispers] For helping me.
John Coffey: Helpin' you with what?
Paul: You know. [gestures surreptitiously to his groin]
John Coffey: [knowingly] Ohhhh. Was your missus pleased?
Paul: Several times.
