    Michael Clarke Duncan was robbed of the academy award for this one. Michael Caine was great in Cider House Rules for sure, but Michael’s performance was one of the most iconic and definitive displays of acting that has ever graced the screen. 22 years later, and nobody remembers Cider House Rules, but everybody remembers the gentle giant of The Green Mile. It such a shame he never really got the recognition he deserved even though he was easily the most memorable part of practically every project he touched.

    • @MoMoMyPup10

      And that is why 'The Academy' has long been out of touch with reality. Politics and the buddy system have ruled there long enough, and it's a shame. And I've only 'seen' this movie through reactions (the greatest movie I've never seen) and even this idiot can tell that his performance was legendary.

    • @MiketheratguyMultimedia
      @MiketheratguyMultimedia Рік тому +2

      The 1999 Oscars were unusually competitive, especially that category. Everyone gave a great performance but I think Caine (whose movie was dull as dirt) had the "might be nearing the end of his career" sympathy vote going for him. To his credit, he spent a good amount of his acceptance speech praising every single other nominee. He was truly a class act.

    If you didn't cry watching this movie, then you aren't human. I don't know of anyone who has watched this movie and didn't get to the end emotionally destroyed and with red eyes. It is perhaps one of the very few movies I would consider to be perfect and without any criticisms whatsoever. Even the actor who plays Percy, you want to hate him so much, and that's precisely what he was supposed to evoke from the audience. They all did their parts brilliantly, and I hold the movie dear to me. I can't even watch a person react to this movie without tearing up again. :)

    • @fallingstar9643
      @fallingstar9643 Рік тому +13

      The thing that always strikes me is the depth of character. Percy is a bit one-note (he's allowed to be, he's an antagonist) but everyone else has at minimum two sides to them: Paul is inherently good, but he's also clever, and with a snarky, almost rebellious streak. Brutal is obviously the Tank of the party, but he's got a gentle sweetness and a good humor that so delightfully rounds him out. Del is a bit off his rocker, but when he says "You're a good man, I wish I met you guys earlier" you can tell he's keenly aware of his life and he sincerely regrets his actions. Warden Hal could have been a straight-laced by-the-book figure (another possible antagonist) but his heart is being shattered by his wife's illness and the movie is not only not afraid to show that, it purposefully pivots the narrative around it.
      Everything about this movie is just so damned clever. It's a masterpiece, and one of the greatest fictional tragedies humanity has ever produced.

It's a necessary reminder that there is a lot of evil in this world, we have to watch for it and help each other through it. I think this is the best reaction I have seen you do. You truly let your guard down and experienced the fullness of the emotional swings in this one. Great job.

    I am a senior citizen now. "We all owe a death. There are no exceptions." means a great deal to me these days. It's best to try not to fear death. Just try to live your best life, and hope that those around you, who pass away, have lived theirs. Years ago, when my father was dying, at 86 years old, he told me, "I don't want you to be sad, Eric. I've had a good life." Those words always meant everything to me, and this movie reminds me of that. I've seen The Green Mile a dozen times, and I watch every reaction video to it also. I cry every time. Thanks, Mary, you're the best!

    This movie is so simple... yet it's one of the most powerful movies ever. I cried so hard when I watched this, and I cry every time I just watch someone react to it. I feel like there are two parts that would make a good baseline test for potential friends if this movie came up in a discussion. 1: "Did you hate Percy?" and 2: "Did you cry at the end?" If their answer isn't "Yes" to both I honestly don't know if I could even bother trying to be friends with that person. I just feel like we wouldn't be compatible.

    I’m a 50 year old man next month, and I cry every time I watch this film and with every reactor. I’ve seen the film dozens of times, and I’ve watched like 5 reactions to this in the past two days and cried every time. 😂 Loved your reaction, btw. You’re quickly becoming one of my new favorite reactors. I appreciate how you recognize and point out the complexities of the situations, characters, moral dilemmas, etc. You keep it real when our heroes are flawed, like V.
    So, I was trying to think of other films that always make me cry that you would like, and “A League Of Their Own” came to mind. It’s a fun, dramatic comedy based on the true story about the women’s baseball league during WW2, while men’s baseball was shut down. And, coincidentally, it stars Tom Hanks, along with a **ton** of other female actors who you will recognize. Gina Davis, Madonna, Rosie O’Donnell, Lori Petty (maybe you don’t know her😆). I won’t give away the ending, but those types of endings make me cry every time.

    The actor is Graham Greene. He plays the first prisoner to be executed. Greene is an established actor who has an impressive list of film and TV roles. Yes, he was in "Dances with Wolves". Greene is an indigenous actor of Oneida First Nation's peoples. The Stephen King novel gives a more detailed backstory of his character Arlen Bitterbuck and also of Cajun prisoner Eduard Delacroix. You are correct about John Coffey. Stephen King intentionally portrays John as a Christ-like figure. There are several religious symbols in the film: The guards' desk and the large, cathedral-like windows with the bright light flowing over the green mile, the pain he takes from Del during the botched execution, John recognizing the constellations in the night sky, the halo from the film projector light over John's head. The lawyer says there was no evidence of John's existence before his arrest. "It was as if he fell from the sky."
    The guards were not able to stop Del's execution. It's not that they did not want to.

    "Yes!...I mean, don't get aggressive..." Wonderful, honest human reaction, Mary, to Percy's being gleefully ugly to Del. ("Percy Wetmore" What an incredibly descriptive character name.) This movie, more than all but a few others, tweaks the emotions of a sensitive viewer back and forth the spectrum from rage to tears, and makes you feel wonderful (and drained) afterwards for allowing those emotions free rein. It draws out our ability to empathize due to its subject matter, its pacing, and the great performances by all involved. This is why you'll find it on nearly every reactor's list of movies. It is also a touchstone for revealing the inmost heart of a sensitive viewer. You are a good person, Mary. Keep up the good work.

    In real life Micheal Clark Duncan
    was a real gental giant with a pure heart...and a good man.
    He was 6 foot 9 gental kind hearted loving Giant.
    The Green Mile movie was his first big movie role and it turned him into a world wide mega movie star.
    We lost him far too soon and we lost a true legendary Goat.
    I truly believe he should have Won an Oscar for this extraordinary role....the Green Mile is a true movie master Piece.

    A Masterpiece of a movie and a great reaction as always. Someone in chat had mentioned that Michael Jeter's last movie was Open Range. The scene in the hayloft when he reads Charlie's (Kevin Costner) last will and testament is about as powerful a scene as I've ever seen. Both movies have had me sobbing....

      Jeter was one of those actors that whenever you see him on screen you know you will get something special. He could be very funny and quirky or he could hit you right between the eyes with touching emotional acting. I miss him, a great actor!

    I cry every time I watch it. It's such a powerful story, full of magical realism and lessons on human behavior. It is also simultaneously a study in the human need to punish evil actions and the satisfaction that it can bring while also being an indictment of capital punishment. Your tears started when mine do, when John asks to leave the hood off to not be in the dark. You should watch a joyful film like Bringing Up Baby or even Top Hat to recover.

Pet your cat for me,lol. Both of mine are sleeping by my feet as I type this. Edit: I suggested this film to a movie reactor who Never cries over films. He teared up over "Schindler's List" but didn't fully cry. This one got him to actually cry. This one truly gets to everyone.

    Hi Mary! I'm loving your reactions! Thanks to you and your editor for all your hard work! If you are still making a list of movies to watch, here are a few suggestions:
    The Insider (1999) - based on a true story w/ Al Pacino and Russel Crowe
    District 9 (2009) - excellent scifi!
    I am Sam (2001) - for a good cry :) w/ Sean Penn, Michelle Pfeiffer, and a young Dakota Fanning
    Hearts in Atlantis (2001) - feel good drama w/ Anthony Hopkins
    Legends of the Fall (1994) - Period drama w/ Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt
    Meet Joe Black (1998) - A feel good dramedy romance with Anthony Hopkins and Brad Pitt... again.
    Collateral (2004) - w/ Tom Cruise and Jamie Fox
    LA Confidential (1997) - classic noir detective story
    Toy Story 3 & 4 (2010 & 2019) - I saw you did the first 2 already, and they only get better :)
    The Thin Red Line (1998) - This has a very large and famous ensemble cast. It's a Terrence Malick film so it's leans towards the philosophical, not everyone's cup of tea, but I recommend it nonetheless as it is a beautiful film.
    And finally these Wes Anderson movies: The Royal Tenenbaums (2001), The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou (2004), The Darjeeling Limited (2007), The Grand Budapest Hotel (2014). All comedies, he has a delightful unique visual style, highly recommended.
    I'm basing these suggestions on what you seemed to have liked up until now. The last two are more aligned with my personal tastes :)
