Re-are-Repost😂 Third time is a charm I hope. If they block it again I give up😑 (they even block it the two times on the very next day it is posted at least let it be for a week please 🙏 )
Everyone played their parts to the hilt. Simply flawless. One of the most painful, out of many, is hearing Paul say "Roll on two" for John. It looked like it was the hardest thing he would ever say, and something he already regretted. The mute, tears of all the guards, surrounding John was a beautiful testament to his, sheer, goodness.
@@ckobo84 Except when he killed the two little girls and murdered the folks in the hold-up (a pregnant lady and probably her fetus, plus at least one other person). I do enjoy the work of the ACTOR who portrayed Wild Bill -- Sam Rockwell -- and in this movie loved his "oh, so polite" raised pinkie finger when he drank his doped RC Cola.
Michael Clarke Duncan performance is somehow underrated when he was the greatest part of an excellent movie. He easily could've been a cheap character for this movie, but the depth he brought to this role was insane. The man deserved his flowers for this role. RIP Duncan (1957-2012).
39:11 "Im tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why. Mostly I'm tired of people being ugly to each other. I'm tired of all the pain I feel and hear in the world everyday. There's too much of it. It's like pieces of glass in my head all the time. Can you understand?" I understand, John :(
For many it may seem unfair that Big John was sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit, but one must understand that he WANTED to die. He was in so much pain with what he felt going on in the world, that the electric chair was his salvation.
22:13 "I sure wish I could've met you guys somewheres else." Damm that line. It's like a thousand knives through the heart. Gets me every time cuz it really sums up the movie (and life) so poetically. There's so much pain, depth and poignancy to that quote and it just really makes you think. If only Eduard Delacroix, or any of us for that matter, had certain people in our lives or for the ones who ARE in our lives, if only we had met them earlier, perhaps we wouldn't have gone down a certain path. Or we wouldn't have made certain questionable decisions and our lives could have been so much different, for the better. It's why it's so important to never take those people who have made a positive influence in our lives for granted... because not everyone is so lucky to have them.
Yeah. It destroys me too, and what he says to mr jingles in French. Basically good bye my friend, I love you my little one”. But then I found out what dale did and that he was actually worse than wild bill when it comes to evil crimes
@@minusculeshai5237I read that dale was on the spectrum, and with the way he acted/ delayed he really seems like he was autistic. back then they were just deemed crazy, so if he received proper help he probably wouldn’t have went down that road of what he did do, extra heart break every time .
I'm a 30 year old guy and am not quick to cry but this movie does it every time. Even reaction videos. Something about the injustices, the purity of John, people 'being ugly to each other'. It all hits me somewhere deep.
I still hold to this very day that green mile is probably one of the greatest movies ever made and Michael Clarke Duncan should have gotten best supporting actor, He should've gotten the Oscar for it
Supporting Actor was a really tough category that year. Michael Caine won for Cider House Rules. I thought MCD or Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense) should have won it.
24:02 "He didn't wet the... the _sponge!_ _Why?!"_ It's one of his defining traits. Everyone _else_ who works on The Green Mile is there out of a sense of _responsibility,_ but _he's_ there out of the sadistic thrill he gets from seeing people _suffer._ _That's_ what makes him such a villain.
I still stand by this being one of the best movies ever made. It's still hard to watch just because of how powerful it is but I watch it every year and it still blows me away.
The screenwriters, director, set designers, the whole crew did exemplary jobs on TGM. Yes, every actor "hit it out of the park" in their respective roles. But consider that before they were brought in on the project, the original source was Stephen King's book/serial novelette -- SOLID BASE MATERIAL will, usually, bring forth a stellar final product for the big screen. Pretty much the same line-up is on-board for another King vehicle: "The Shawshank Redemption," directed by Frank Darabont plus a couple actors from TGM (Harry the older E Block guard, the blonde girls' father). It's another tear-jerker, be forewarned! Shawshank is almost as good a movie as Mile. Give it a view and compare/contrast.
It warms my heart to know there is sympathetic girls like this one in the world. If this really happened and she was around her heart would go out to the innocent 😊🌹
This was, without a doubt, the most heartbreaking reaction I have ever watched. I've seen The Green Mile many times so I decided just to watch your reactions. I just want to hug you you and tell you it'll be alright, just like I did when my kids were little. What a range of emotions you showed. The Green Mile is one of the greatest movies of all time and that was a reaction it truly deserved.
Stephen King is an amazing author. I read the 6 books before the movies came out. They did a good job with the movie, I thought. The books were chilling.
When your ready for another heavy happy/sad crying session watch "What Dreams May Come" with Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr. It's a tragedy from the start with tons of beautiful moments mixed with more tragedy. Then a final glimmer of hope at the end. It's a must see kinda movie that shows Robin Williams can be a serious actor not just a comedian.
Graham Greene, the Native American prisoner executed first, has quite a few movies of his own. I highly, highly recommend seeing him with Val Kilmer in Thunderheart. He had a lot of fun with his role, and the story is excellent.
Such a genuine reaction. It's always hard to watch a movie that doesn't have a happy ending. I saw this in a sold out movie theater on opening night. The crying was so loud, and more than a few people had to get up and leave, they were so overwhelmed. The theater was dead silent as the credits started rolling, and no one could look anyone else in the eye. A very memorable experience, and my God, what a performance by the entire cast. R.I.P. Michael Clarke Duncan (John Coffey; like the drink but not spelled the same...)
That was a wonderful reaction. We were all there with you sharing the tears and emotions. We will never be the same after that experience. It touches our souls. Thank you for being real and open. God Bless you Magy.
41:40 jeeesus, i just want to give her a hug.... as a grown man who doesn`t like to show ANY emotions in public, i was crying like a little girl when i watched this part at the cinema, back in the day..... and i did not even cry, when my father died.
Sweet Magy, prison guards don't have the authority to overturn a death sentence. Only a judge or the governor of the state can do that. Had Paul set him free, he not only would have been fired, but would have spent some time in prison.
I swear , Magy has the best brows in the business ! Green mile , misery ( I watch every winter ) , shawshank redemption and stand by me ( I watch every spring / summer ) are all must watch stephen king movies . Each one is as amazing as green mile . I hope eventually you get to some of those .
Such a touching reaction, I must admit that I ugly cried along despite having watched this movie (and reactions) several times. Amazing movie, but it leaves you so drained. Big hug
Thank you for re-uploading this again. I missed this the first (and second) time around, and although it makes me happier to see you laugh than cry, I always enjoy your reactions
Magy, your movie reactions are the best. You are so sweet and honest, those who know you in real life are lucky. I know this one was hard but thank you for sharing. You are a beautiful person both inside and out.
1. YOU WILL CRY 2. Dabbs Greer/old Paul was ill during production so his part was done later. 3. Goof: In 1935 black and white inmates were not kept in the same prison., 4. In the book King briefly covers why the Chief and Del are on death row. 5. This movie was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Cast but unfortunately neither won. 6. Players in other King adaptations: Jeffery DeMunn: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist, Storm of the Century and William Sadler: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist. David Morse: The Langoliers. 7. Goof: Electricity makes the body contract. Del wouldn't be able to scream. 8. IRL James Cromwell is a vegetarian and didn't want to grill meat for the BBQ scene but was told that in 1935 people actually ate meat so he agreed to have some on the grill. 9. RE Percy: Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. KARMA's a Bitch. 10. Hammersmith was not a good lawyer.(possibly a racial thing. It was 1935. 11. IRL both David Morse and James Cromwell are as tall as Michael Clark Duncan (RIP). They used planks, a small bed and smaller chair along with trick photography to make John taller. 12 The scene before Dels execution they used a real mouse and it pooped on Paul's shoulder and he brushed it off. 13. Now we know what the "day old is fine" dry toast is for. 14 EVERYBODY cries and has to take time to reflect. Congratulations you just experienced the GREATEST MOVIE EVER. 15. 4 words for you: Stephen King. You're WELCOME!
Number 3 might not be a goof... death row is sperate from regular population. Different block, different guards and different rules. So might be different circumstances.
To give you an idea of how long Paul might live, a field mouse's average lifespan is 1 year. Mr. Jingles has lived for over 60. So if you times the average age (80) x 60 (the multiplier that we have based on Mr. Jingles' lifespan) Paul will have to live for *4,800* years before being allowed to die. He's basically like Longinus (the Roman Centurion whose spear pierced Jesus' side) and who was cursed with immortality for it.
I love that story, and the Caska books. I think Paul would get to a point where his age somewhat stabilizes, Mr. Jingles looks old and moves a little slow but other than that he can still walk around. the age is there but he cant get sick. I would imagine that either of them could die if crushed under impact of something large enough to physically crush them, but baring that they would live the extreme amount of time. Paul has enough of the Christian or Godly belief that he wouldn't commit suicide. They could make more story out of this, although it would never have the feel of this movie. It would turn into a Sy Fi movie. I wish they would make movies about Longinus. That could be very epic. Also he in a sense was cursed, so he could be hurt and feel pain, but he couldn't be killed so it was more than just a life spell, it was an immortality curse.
Hi magy,this was the reaction that convinced me to subscribe to you,glad to see it back,i have downloaded it so if it does get blocked i can still watch it,love all your content but this one especially!!!!!
by far one of the best stephen king films that has ever been done without measure or comparison that touches the deepest part of the soul but still shows the darkness and horror of mens hearts at the same time
Another amazing Tom Hanks movie, and one where the entire cast gave incredible performances(something rare in movies). Sadly, Michael Clarke Duncan(John Coffey) passed away in September of 2012. He was a talented actor gone too soon. RIP.
Imagine seeing this in the cinema? The reactions of other couples, etc., both men and women. Crying, like laughter, is contagious. Truly not a dry eye in the house. I’ve only met one person who didn’t like this film, a woman I used to work with. Educated, capable, functional, she appeared human in every other way.
Tom Hanks was on a roll during this period having one great move after another starting with "A League of Their Own" in 1992 through "Catch Me If You Can" in 2002. "The Green Mile" is some of his finest work along with "Saving Private Ryan" and "Philadelphia".
There are three movies guaranteed to make me cry every time I watch them, no matter how many times I've seen them and know the ending. This, Armageddon, and Big Fish. It never fails, put either of the three movies on and I'm a blubbering mess sinking into the sofa surrounded by tissues..
Ms. Magy- Your reaction here had me tearing up! I encourage you to add E.T. The Extra Terrestrial to your list - It’s a classic Spielberg film from 1982. Enjoy!
I've also seen it more than enough but I recommend anyone to watch this movie and the emotions have to be better but this movie wouldn't be about it but I found it to be perfect and to do something so amazing and I really liked it.
I’ve been reluctant to watch this one as I knew how emotional it would be for you. But I finally did on Patreon earlier tonight. Your reaction was incredible and so emotional. And I’m not surprised you weren’t able to speak at the end, to be honest I wouldn’t have been able to either. Thank You Magy.
This is the only book I've read and movie I've watched that I cried to. Stephen King has this magical way of telling stories that just suck you in and keeps your in that world. Excellent story and excellent acting here. Love it!
Your reaction was so adorable and very authentic. I'd seen the movie before and it really moved me, but watching your reaction I was moved to tears because I could see how it really affected you. Even crying you are still adorable. Keep it up!
I love this movie so much. I cried when I read the book many years ago and I've watched it at least a dozen times since. Still cry. The acting was superb by everyone in the movie. Love your real, heartfelt reactions, Maggy although I always hate to see you cry but love your smile and laugh.
If this movie doesn't leave you speechless, you weren't paying attention. I hold this movie as one of the most perfect movies ever made. Every scene, every character, every line of dialogue, it all comes together into a perfect work of cinematic art, full of humor and horror and love and hate that creates an overwhelming emotional experience that definitely leaves its mark on everybody who watches it. The acting was amazing. Michael Clarke Duncan's performance as John Coffey is easily one of the best performances in movie history. Even Doug Hutchison who played Percy Wetmore gave such a great performance making us hate that character as much as I've ever hated a character in any movie ever. Movies don't get any better than this.
Frank Darabont is a genius director. He didn't only make the two best Stephen King adaptations with The Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption but two of best films ever.
Oh Magy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ He gave a part of his soul to the mouse, so he did live on, but not in human form ❤️Magy❤️🙂

STILL a wonderful treat. ❤️
re-re-liked !!
Maybe you should make that video visible for people who has a link or something, so it wouldn't be deleted.
that explains the xmas tree
Few movies have the entire cast kill their rolls, this is one of them. Not one bad performance. A master craft in story telling.
Truth.
Everyone played their parts to the hilt. Simply flawless. One of the most painful, out of many, is hearing Paul say "Roll on two" for John. It looked like it was the hardest thing he would ever say, and something he already regretted. The mute, tears of all the guards, surrounding John was a beautiful testament to his, sheer, goodness.
Wild Bill is my favorite, he just has so much zest for life.
@@ckobo84 Well...taking life anyways.
@@ckobo84 Except when he killed the two little girls and murdered the folks in the hold-up (a pregnant lady and probably her fetus, plus at least one other person). I do enjoy the work of the ACTOR who portrayed Wild Bill -- Sam Rockwell -- and in this movie loved his "oh, so polite" raised pinkie finger when he drank his doped RC Cola.
“I’m tired of being on the road and lonely as a sparrow in the rain”. That quote kills me every time.
"I be all right ,fellas.
This here's the hard part.
I be all right in a little while"
😢😢
Michael Clarke Duncan performance is somehow underrated when he was the greatest part of an excellent movie.
He easily could've been a cheap character for this movie, but the depth he brought to this role was insane. The man deserved his flowers for this role.
RIP Duncan (1957-2012).
Wow, has it been that long since he died? I thought that it was like 5 years ago.
Should have Gotten the Oscar
Mr. Jingles was better
I think he got Emmy for this or similar award
Yeah, Michael Clarke Duncan knocked it out of the park with that performance.
39:11 "Im tired, boss. Tired of being on the road, lonely as a sparrow in the rain. Tired of not ever having me a buddy to be with, or tell me where we's coming from or going to, or why.

I understand, John :(
As do I. Understand all too well :(
One of the most touching pieces of dialogue ever written.
So sad yet so true
being autistic and hyper empathetic I REALLY understand it :(
For many it may seem unfair that Big John was sentenced to death for a crime he didn't commit, but one must understand that he WANTED to die. He was in so much pain with what he felt going on in the world, that the electric chair was his salvation.

This film never fails to make me cry no matter how many times I watch it.
Exactly why this is my all time favorite movie. Such a good story, that ultimately catches up on you with so many emotions.
Same
Yup, even the reactions make me misty.
agreed
SK really knows how to scare the hell out of you!
I was depressed for two full days after watching this sucker. Your speechlessness at the end is totally understandable!
Well, ain’t it a small world where one of my favorite LPers comments on a video I’m about to watch? Love your videos, man.
Rest in Peace Mike Duncan, Mike Jeter and Dabbs Greer. You are greatly missed.
Jeter killed in man.... I mean... man. He did better then Michael I think
Don’t forget William McKinney (Van Hay, the one who threw the switch), Dean Stanton (Toot the trustee), and two others who have passed on.
I'm a 30 year old guy and am not quick to cry but this movie does it every time. Even reaction videos. Something about the injustices, the purity of John, people 'being ugly to each other'. It all hits me somewhere deep.
I am 57 y/o guy and this hits me also every time.
One of the best movies of all time! If you don't cry, you're not human!
I didn't cry. Guess I'm not human.
I have been through deep shit through my life, I won't cry over a movie lmfao. I won't laugh either, I am just fucked up
I still hold to this very day that green mile is probably one of the greatest movies ever made and Michael Clarke Duncan should have gotten best supporting actor, He should've gotten the Oscar for it
This, and Shawshank Redemption are unequivocally the two best movies ever made.
And The Color Purple....IMO
Supporting Actor was a really tough category that year. Michael Caine won for Cider House Rules. I thought MCD or Haley Joel Osment (The Sixth Sense) should have won it.
I found a leaf in my garden, it’s one of the best leafs in the world. I had to put it with the rest of them obviously. Still, quite a pile.
24:02 "He didn't wet the... the _sponge!_ _Why?!"_
It's one of his defining traits. Everyone _else_ who works on The Green Mile is there out of a sense of _responsibility,_ but _he's_ there out of the sadistic thrill he gets from seeing people _suffer._ _That's_ what makes him such a villain.
Mr. Jingles taking his last breath at the end still gets me after all these years.
He had a hell of a ride though, lucky bastard that Mr. Jingles.
He is still alive at the end of the movie.
@@karnage2423 In the book Mr. Jingles dies. But you're correct, technically we do see Mr. Jingles still breathing as the movie fades to black.
@@karnage2423 I thought it was implied in the movie by the subtle yet quick breaths that became slower. Regardless, hell of a ride.
@Thomas Cibula Nah, just rewatched it, he is still breathing.
I still stand by this being one of the best movies ever made. It's still hard to watch just because of how powerful it is but I watch it every year and it still blows me away.

i like this movie too but the citizens are too damn stupid
It warms my heart to know there is sympathetic girls like this one in the world. If this really happened and she was around her heart would go out to the innocent 😊🌹
Michael Jeter (Eduard Delacroix) in 2003 & Michael Clarke Duncan in 2012...R.I.P.!🙏🏻
Before Dale’s execution, when he is speaking in French, he is saying “Good bye, my friend. I love you”. Makes it even sadder.
R.I.P Michael Clarke Duncan ♥️
I am not an emotional guy, but this movie still puts tears in my eye every time.
This was, without a doubt, the most heartbreaking reaction I have ever watched. I've seen The Green Mile many times so I decided just to watch your reactions. I just want to hug you you and tell you it'll be alright, just like I did when my kids were little.
What a range of emotions you showed. The Green Mile is one of the greatest movies of all time and that was a reaction it truly deserved.
Sometimes it's alright to cry, to know how much we've understood what story we've learnt and how much we love it.
Never seen you cry this much on such an epic masterpiece! Great reaction here by the way.
Stephen King is an amazing author. I read the 6 books before the movies came out. They did a good job with the movie, I thought. The books were chilling.
When your ready for another heavy happy/sad crying session watch "What Dreams May Come" with Robin Williams and Cuba Gooding Jr.
It's a tragedy from the start with tons of beautiful moments mixed with more tragedy.
Then a final glimmer of hope at the end.
It's a must see kinda movie that shows Robin Williams can be a serious actor not just a comedian.
What Dreams May Come is almost as good as this one.
Graham Greene, the Native American prisoner executed first, has quite a few movies of his own.
I highly, highly recommend seeing him with Val Kilmer in Thunderheart. He had a lot of fun with his role, and the story is excellent.
But my favorite of his was chief Joseph in Maverick. He was friggin hilarious.
...and dances with wolves...
_Thunderheart_ is an underrated movie.
He was a medicine man in one of my favorite series, "Northern Exposure".
What makes me even sadder watching this movie is to know we will never get to see any of his new performances ever again
Now, that's a powerful statement very well said!!!
Such a genuine reaction. It's always hard to watch a movie that doesn't have a happy ending. I saw this in a sold out movie theater on opening night. The crying was so loud, and more than a few people had to get up and leave, they were so overwhelmed. The theater was dead silent as the credits started rolling, and no one could look anyone else in the eye. A very memorable experience, and my God, what a performance by the entire cast. R.I.P. Michael Clarke Duncan (John Coffey; like the drink but not spelled the same...)
I have no idea how Michael Caine beat Michael C Duncan for best supporting actor in 1999, when he didn't get an acadamy award for this role.
It’s so rare, and so lovely to see such genuine emotion. Thank you for not holding back ❤️
That was a wonderful reaction. We were all there with you sharing the tears and emotions. We will never be the same after that experience. It touches our souls. Thank you for being real and open. God Bless you Magy.
This movie is a emotional masterpiece ❤️
41:40 jeeesus, i just want to give her a hug....
as a grown man who doesn`t like to show ANY emotions in public, i was crying like a little girl when i watched this part at the cinema, back in the day.....

Sweet Magy, prison guards don't have the authority to overturn a death sentence. Only a judge or the governor of the state can do that. Had Paul set him free, he not only would have been fired, but would have spent some time in prison.
I swear , Magy has the best brows in the business !
Green mile , misery ( I watch every winter ) , shawshank redemption and stand by me ( I watch every spring / summer ) are all must watch stephen king movies . Each one is as amazing as green mile . I hope eventually you get to some of those .
Rarely is so much said by silence than anyone's reaction after watching this film.
"Was your missus pleased?"
"Several times…" 🤣🤣🤣
Sam Rockwell the actor who played wild Bill had such a lovely relationship with the two little girls off screen it was lovely to see
Those who recommended this to magy, you really like to see her cry huh
_"When God asks me why did I kill one of his miracles... what am I going to say?"_
Damn that part.
Such a touching reaction, I must admit that I ugly cried along despite having watched this movie (and reactions) several times. Amazing movie, but it leaves you so drained. Big hug
So beautiful magy, inside and out☺️☺️☺️💯
Well Ms. Magic Magy, you reacted exactly how you were suppose to, it's a great movie, and a great reaction.
this is one of those movies i’ll cry my eyes out every single time i think about it.
When Del says goodbye in french to Mr.Jingles I broke up, everytime I see this film.
The beauty of movies is that they can make you feel all sorts of emotions. I loved your honest, powerful reaction.
"We all owe a death. There are no exceptions." .....Something I try to keep in mind every day.
Thank you for re-uploading this again. I missed this the first (and second) time around, and although it makes me happier to see you laugh than cry, I always enjoy your reactions
Thank you Magy for the real emotions.
When Paul says to John before his execution "May God have mercy on you soul, he really meant may God have mercy on my soul.
I believe you are right,I can't imagine the torment he was going knowing that John was innocent and then outliving everyone.
Magy, your movie reactions are the best. You are so sweet and honest, those who know you in real life are lucky. I know this one was hard but thank you for sharing. You are a beautiful person both inside and out.
1. YOU WILL CRY
2. Dabbs Greer/old Paul was ill during production so his part was done later.
3. Goof: In 1935 black and white inmates were not kept in the same prison.,
4. In the book King briefly covers why the Chief and Del are on death row.
5. This movie was nominated for Best Supporting Actor and Best Cast but unfortunately neither won.
6. Players in other King adaptations: Jeffery DeMunn: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist,
Storm of the Century and William Sadler: Shawshank Redemption, The Mist. David Morse:
The Langoliers.
7. Goof: Electricity makes the body contract. Del wouldn't be able to scream.
8. IRL James Cromwell is a vegetarian and didn't want to grill meat for the BBQ scene but
was told that in 1935 people actually ate meat so he agreed to have some on the grill.
9. RE Percy: Couldn't happen to a nicer guy. KARMA's a Bitch.
10. Hammersmith was not a good lawyer.(possibly a racial thing. It was 1935.
11. IRL both David Morse and James Cromwell are as tall as Michael Clark Duncan (RIP). They used planks, a small bed
and smaller chair along with trick photography to make John taller.
12 The scene before Dels execution they used a real mouse and it pooped on Paul's shoulder and he brushed it off.
13. Now we know what the "day old is fine" dry toast is for.
14 EVERYBODY cries and has to take time to reflect. Congratulations you just experienced
the GREATEST MOVIE EVER.
15. 4 words for you: Stephen King. You're WELCOME!
Number 3 might not be a goof... death row is sperate from regular population. Different block, different guards and different rules. So might be different circumstances.
When John Coffey left us, a part of us left with him 😭😭😭
John is every good and moral black man in America. PRAISE YAHWEH!!!!!!!
To give you an idea of how long Paul might live, a field mouse's average lifespan is 1 year. Mr. Jingles has lived for over 60. So if you times the average age (80) x 60 (the multiplier that we have based on Mr. Jingles' lifespan) Paul will have to live for *4,800* years before being allowed to die. He's basically like Longinus (the Roman Centurion whose spear pierced Jesus' side) and who was cursed with immortality for it.
Every time I watch a reaction to this movie, I think to myself "I should do the math on that." And then I don't.
So thank you for doing it for me. Lol
Paul will live Even longer. The mouse is not dead yet.
I'd hate to see how feeble he is at 1,000 years old if he looks like this at a little over 100 😦
I love that story, and the Caska books. I think Paul would get to a point where his age somewhat stabilizes, Mr. Jingles looks old and moves a little slow but other than that he can still walk around. the age is there but he cant get sick.
I would imagine that either of them could die if crushed under impact of something large enough to physically crush them, but baring that they would live the extreme amount of time.
Paul has enough of the Christian or Godly belief that he wouldn't commit suicide.
They could make more story out of this, although it would never have the feel of this movie. It would turn into a Sy Fi movie.
I wish they would make movies about Longinus. That could be very epic. Also he in a sense was cursed, so he could be hurt and feel pain, but he couldn't be killed so it was more than just a life spell, it was an immortality curse.
So, how old was John
Do not worry about Crying about Jon... i do too... every time
John Coffee was big gentle giant we love you John Coffee
Coffey. Like the drink, but not spelled the same.
Hi magy,this was the reaction that convinced me to subscribe to you,glad to see it back,i have downloaded it so if it does get blocked i can still watch it,love all your content but this one especially!!!!!
by far one of the best stephen king films that has ever been done without measure or comparison that touches the deepest part of the soul but still shows the darkness and horror of mens hearts at the same time
WE LOVE YOU MAGY! WE HOPE YOU'RE FEELING BETTER!
Thanks for taking the time to re-post this wonderfully touching reaction of The Green Mile.
I have no idea how Michael Caine beat Michael C Duncan for best supporting actor in 1999, when he didn't get an acadamy award for this role.
He was a pure soul, this film was a masterpiece.
She really needs to watch Shawshank Redemption.
i agree. i just saw that movie now which was my first time.
I remember watching this in the hospital when I was 13. Hands down the fastest three hours in my life.
Shocking how quickly it flies by.
The VHS of this movie was a 2-tape set. Other 2-tape sets: Titanic, Braveheart, ummmmmm......those are the only others I can think of.
wyatt earp, ten commandments, think rough riders
This movie is a masterpiece! I loved it!
Bless your heart, your beautiful emotions tell us what kind of person you are.
Another amazing Tom Hanks movie, and one where the entire cast gave incredible performances(something rare in movies). Sadly, Michael Clarke Duncan(John Coffey) passed away in September of 2012. He was a talented actor gone too soon. RIP.
This is one of the greatest things Stephen King has ever written.
Yeah! I missed this reaction the other times it was uploaded, so I'm going to watch it immediately!
Imagine seeing this in the cinema? The reactions of other couples, etc., both men and women. Crying, like laughter, is contagious. Truly not a dry eye in the house. I’ve only met one person who didn’t like this film, a woman I used to work with. Educated, capable, functional, she appeared human in every other way.
a lovely reaction you want to watch Shawshank redemption next .by Stephen king.awesome.
It's a huge gear change when this period-piece movie suddenly turns supernatural. And after that it's crying until the end. Such a great story.
This film is such an emotional rollercoaster 😃😂😭😤 great film great reaction Magy 😃
Tom Hanks was on a roll during this period having one great move after another starting with "A League of Their Own" in 1992 through "Catch Me If You Can" in 2002. "The Green Mile" is some of his finest work along with "Saving Private Ryan" and "Philadelphia".
Totally understand your not having words to this film at the end. Every time I see it I still can't help but cry at the end.
There are three movies guaranteed to make me cry every time I watch them, no matter how many times I've seen them and know the ending. This, Armageddon, and Big Fish. It never fails, put either of the three movies on and I'm a blubbering mess sinking into the sofa surrounded by tissues..
Thank you for such a heart felt reaction! I just liked and subscribed! Keep up the great work!
Stallone is Rocky. Tom Hanks is Forrest Gump.
It breaks my heart seeing you cry. It makes me wanna give you a hug to make you feel better.😥😥😥
Ms. Magy- Your reaction here had me tearing up! I encourage you to add E.T. The Extra Terrestrial to your list - It’s a classic Spielberg film from 1982. Enjoy!
I just saw this movie not to long ago and aside from all the tears I really did enjoy this movie and thank you so much for reacting to it.😁😁
I think Magy deserves a good comedy after this!
A miracle worker with the initials JC, that sacrificed himself
This is why people who wish for eternal life don't know what they're really wishing for.
I've also seen it more than enough but I recommend anyone to watch this movie and the emotions have to be better but this movie wouldn't be about it but I found it to be perfect and to do something so amazing and I really liked it.
Magy, I understand and relate completely with your silence at the end. It's about the only way to respond to this powerful, gut-wrenching film.
I’ve been reluctant to watch this one as I knew how emotional it would be for you. But I finally did on Patreon earlier tonight. Your reaction was incredible and so emotional. And I’m not surprised you weren’t able to speak at the end, to be honest I wouldn’t have been able to either. Thank You Magy.
This is the only book I've read and movie I've watched that I cried to. Stephen King has this magical way of telling stories that just suck you in and keeps your in that world. Excellent story and excellent acting here. Love it!
Every time I watch a reaction video to this movie, its like experiencing the movie like its the first time all over again n yes I cry every time.
Your reaction was so adorable and very authentic. I'd seen the movie before and it really moved me, but watching your reaction I was moved to tears because I could see how it really affected you. Even crying you are still adorable. Keep it up!
I love this movie so much. I cried when I read the book many years ago and I've watched it at least a dozen times since. Still cry. The acting was superb by everyone in the movie. Love your real, heartfelt reactions, Maggy although I always hate to see you cry but love your smile and laugh.
If this movie doesn't leave you speechless, you weren't paying attention.
I hold this movie as one of the most perfect movies ever made.
Every scene, every character, every line of dialogue, it all comes together into a perfect work of cinematic art, full of humor and horror and love and hate that creates an overwhelming emotional experience that definitely leaves its mark on everybody who watches it.
The acting was amazing.
Michael Clarke Duncan's performance as John Coffey is easily one of the best performances in movie history.
Even Doug Hutchison who played Percy Wetmore gave such a great performance making us hate that character as much as I've ever hated a character in any movie ever.
Movies don't get any better than this.
Yeah. This movie, I mean FILM, murders me everytime. Every. Single. Time.
One of the MOST emotional movies I've seen to this day...
Top 5 tearjerker movie ever made! 😭😭
Frank Darabont is a genius director. He didn't only make the two best Stephen King adaptations with The Green Mile and Shawshank Redemption but two of best films ever.
So sad seeing Magy cry
I know that every Tom Hanks performance is the best Tom Hanks performance.....But this is the best Tom Hanks performance ❤❤
Oh Magy❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
He gave a part of his soul to the mouse, so he did live on, but not in human form
❤️Magy❤️🙂
everyone nailed it their rolls in this one . I saw this in the theater with my family when it came out . such a great movie!
