The Green Mile
Directed by Frank Darabont
1999
★ 5.4 editorial score
Darabont's second Stephen King prison film runs three hours and nobody notices: a death row guard in 1935 takes delivery of the largest, quietest inmate the block has ever held.
“As ''The Green Mile'' builds to its inevitable spooky touches — very few, since this King story concentrates so heavily on character — its drama mounts even as its seams begin to show. There will turn out to have been much ado about relatively little when the film is over. But unassumingly strong, moving performances and Mr. Darabont's durable storytelling make it a trip worth taking just the same.”
