Is it possible that Stephan king is actually "underrated" as a story teller?? It's amazing to me that anyone could create so many classic stories. And the fact that they are all so different ....
Many years ago I read his short story "The Crate", while I was in bed; it was the only time I was afraid to get up and turn off the light.
p.s. the movie adaptation was crap.
One touch that is very subtle and often goes unnoticed. the floor in of the halway in the old folks home, is the same floor as the mile! after all the years, Paul Edgecomb is still walking the mile, every day he is alive.
i love this man. Humble, talented, and original. Just look at what he did with all the king adaptations. he made 2 hour classic movies out of short stories. Even king himself stated that he was envious on the ending of the mist. give this guy the credit he is due. he is freaking top 3 on the best movies ever made for gods sake. he deserves room to make whatever he wants to make in my book. why is he not making movies anymore? at least let him direct/write an episode of castle black. That's a no brainer. They even fetched the same composer from shawshank and the green mile (Thomas Newman) to connect the universes. WHY does does this man not get any work anymore??
I watch the green Mile like once a year and before I press “play” i’m all like: “Well; if I don’t cry this time I’m finally a grown-up!”
That's quite emotional Evan, well said you.
You will never not be able to hold back the tears because the movie is that good, I started crying at the start of this video
Close but not quite.
You're a child if you don't cry.
One of my favorite books and movie . There aren’t too many movies that do the book justice ! But this did . As I read while I was in college ( long ago ) I kept passing it around saying “ I hope they make this into a movie 🎥 “ when they did I wasn’t disappointed!
I remember when these came out in a series of booklets. I'd buy one, read it immediately, then stew until the next one came out. Then of course, when I had all 6, I read them from start to finish. I will say that the movie lived up to story quite nicely.
"If you’re gonna try to create some kind of art, you know it shouldn’t all be obvious to the artist, there should be an interpretative margin even for the person doing it. Because then there will certainly be for the people who are giving themselves over to experience it"
Screenwriters! Do we all agree with this statement?
Two of my favorite moves of all time in Shawshank and the green mile! One of them in left hopeful and the other I feel bittersweet. Two wonderful movies that will stay with me forever in special ways 🙏
I went to New Orleans couple years ago, I met Tim Robbins and Patricia Clarkson!
Yes Aaron, I hear you.
Your very cute
Easily my favorite movie.
Sony should have given The Dark Tower to Darabont.
I don't think it would translate to film. Some novel's just don't.
@connor waters
Plural words don't require an apostrophe. They just don't.
King originally offered The Dark Tower to Darabont. But Darabont said no because he thought the books worked great as literature but wouldn’t work well as movies, because a lot of it-as Darabont put it-was scenes akin to “dropping acid and talking about the meta-verse.” He didn’t know how to translate that to cinema.
Thank you for posting this. I've been working on an adaptation for some time, though my project is more of a biopic. It's been challenging since I lack Frank's experience as well as having to deal with a true story which tends to limit poetic license. In any case, the Green Mile is certainly one of my favorite films and always will be. It continues to teach me lessons as a writer after all these years. Well done, sir. I cry every time I watch it.
That cat was the key.
It's funny, the way Darabont talks I feel is very similar to the way his films pace, engage, intrigue etc.
Much less two of the best prison movies ever made. Much less two of the most beloved movies of all time.
Ironically, Thomas Newman wrote the score to that movie as well, ha.
Great movie
Great film must get the books
I have the DVD, guess what I'm going to do now?
Blu Ray?
Contrary to the description, Darabont has never won an Oscar -- and I'm surprised that Warner Bros. (a movie studio!) would get this wrong. Oh, he definitely should have won the Best Adaptation for Shawshank Redemption... but he didn't.
Poor Finian what do you mean?
It’s unbelievable how the movie is exactly like the book. Just started reading the book a yesterday and can’t picture the character in my mind as I usually do with other books. Actually annoying lol. First time ever for me not being able to put a face in my mind fir a character and just picturing Tom hanks and Michael Clarke D.
I remember when I was 12, and the books came out...and not a single bookstore had problem selling me the books. But, when I was 16, and the movie came out, I couldn't get in without a parent, or other adult...because it was rated R.....weird.
Oscar award-winning director Frank Darabont, he doesnt won any oscar only was nominated 3 times
It's a good movie but I prefer Shawshank just for the story. Coffee was innocent and should not have been executed imo. Andy was innocent and finally escaped to freedom.
Yeah but he should have won. Especially over crap like American Beauty.
Is this insider trading?
