                        THE GREEN MILE

   The Green Mile is the best film that I ever seen. 

It's a drama film shooted in 1999. Its director is 

Frank Darabot. It was turned into a screenplay 

from Stephen King's novel in the same name. The   

story is told by Paul to Elaine when he is 108 years 

old.

        John Coffy is a buly and largehearted man. He

 is blamed for raping and killing two little girl. So 

he is sentenced to execution. Although he has a 

terrible image, he has a kind inner world. The 

headguard of the prisom Paul Edgecomb asks him 

whether  he is really guilty or not , John  says he 

has supernatural powers. Because of these powers

 he suffers from the pain throughout the world. 

After John cures Paul, he believes John and doesn't 

want to kill him. Everyone in the prison believe 

John but he will be put to death. Percy Wetmore a 

sadictic and unpopular guard,who is nephew of the

 governor's wife has recently begun working. He 

recognizes that the other officers dislike him. He 

uses that to demand managing the next execution,

 by promising that afterward, he will transfer to an

 adminstrative post at a mental hospital. An 

agreement is made, but Percy then deliberately 

sabotages the execution. Instead of wetting the 

sponge used to conduct electricity and make 

executions quick and effective, he leaves it dry, 

causing the execution to be fearful.
  

         When the John's time comes, Paul asks John 

 what he should do, if he should open the door and 

let John walk away. John tells that there is to much 

pain in the world. For his last request on the night 

before his execution, John watches a film. When he

is put in the electric chair, he asks Paul not to put 

the black hood over his head because he is afraid of 

the dark. Paul agrees, shakes his hand and John is

 executed. All the officers are crying for John.

    As Paul finishes his story, he notes that he

 requested a transfer to a youth detention center, 

where he spent the remainder of his career. Elaine 

questions his statement that he had a fully grown

 son at the time and he explains that he was 44 at 

the time of John's executionm and he is now 108. 

This is apparently  a side effect of John giving part

 of himself. Mr. Jingles Del's mouse, is also still 

alive.
