The Last Mile


"I dreamed of you. I dreamed that you are wandering in the dark, and so do I. And we found each other, we found each other in the dark. "

Impressive, mesmerizing, shocking, hypnotizing. Yes, just not enough words to describe all your emotions after the movie.

The most famous adaptation of the popular novel by Stephen King. Probably already many people know this story about the workers on the mile and their prisoners sentenced to death. Paul already at a very old age recalls his experiences while working on a mile in the 30's. They, those who worked there, called this place - the green mile, the last path that passed the condemned to the death penalty, and the road led to an electric chair. One year at this place, Paul was so saturated that he could no longer work there, and the annoying employee was Parsi, and the rambunctious kid Billy, DeLacroix with the circus Mr. Jingle and, of course, John Kofi. The last character turns out to be some inexplicable miracle sent to earth, but such a serious gift - healing, imprinting, he feels all the pain and suffering of every living being.

I can say that this is one of the rare cases when the screen version touched me much more than the book itself. It's easy to see the whole film crew so thoroughly experienced the whole story, imbued with it, so all the scenery and characters were embodied incomparably. The characters were very different and all the actors were on top, they embodied the best life in their characters, perfectly conveyed to the audience their characters. Negative roles really awaken negative emotions and dislike in us; if we see pain and suffering, we too begin to feel them. Throughout the viewing you completely penetrate the history, you miss it through yourself and this causes a storm of emotions. The strongest film, brings so much heavy emotions, but it's masterpiece.

"Green Mile" is not easy to watch, many emotions and grief are borne by all the characters and you delve into the history of each of them throughout the tape. It's sad, and great at the same time.
