Stephen King wrote The Green Mile, a story about an inmate with a
great gift, and the head guard who learns to realize this. There is
no horror and not much science fiction, but yes, Stephen King wrote
it. It came out in six pieces (what I call rip-off ten times over).
It was a good story, but a slow story.

And who would have thought that for once, the theatrical version is
actually better than the book it is based on? The Green Mile is.
The movie follows the book down to the lines spoken, including
every scene I can remember. It hardly takes any colorful additions.
The only downside is that in exchange for a movie that is true to
the novel, The Green Mile is exactly three hours long. Thankfully,
do to skillful writing, the time passes rather comfortably
(not perfectly, but near perfectly). Though it has been some time
since I read the book, there seems to be a lot more wit and humor
in the film that does quite the opposite of detract from King's
original intentions. The feeling of the film is still there but
the director and screenwriter manage to keep a high level of
entertainment throughout.

The acting is superb. Tom Hanks does an excellent job, although I
do not see anything extremely notable about this performance that
could earn him an Oscar. David Morse also does a good job, but the
award of the movie has to go to Michael Duncan, the large, stupid,
gifted, black man on death row, John Coffey. He is in every way
what I pictured Coffey as in the book, and performs the character
as smooth as butter.

The only complaint I have is that in the ending, the old Paul
Edgecombe, while showing his "girlfriend" his special prize,
explains things a little too much, as if the audience cannot figure
it out on their own. I can't really get any more specific without
giving away anything, but what he says seems blatantly obvious and
a scapegoat to explain the story.

The Green Mile is true to the novel in every way possible, and even
though it takes three hours, it rolls along nicely.
