Full Reaction to The Green Mile
Added 2021-07-03 20:18:01 +0000 UTCHey dear patrons, how is your weekend going?
You were right: if Shawshank Redemption was hard to swallow, this one touches our soft spot and it's heartbreaking.
I did not want to say this in the thoughts at the end, but have you noticed the resemblence of Coffey with what Christians know as the son of God? I trust you all a lot. I want to know how crazy I am for thinking this way 😶
I hope you enjoy it! Stay safe 💖

John Coffey is definitely an analogue for Christ. A miraculous and selfless being who couldn't bear the suffering of the world, sacrificed by uncaring authority. Regardless of your individual beliefs, that story and this one request that we examine our own actions, and inspire us to try and reduce that harm. Such a great movie, and as moving today as it was when it was released. I've not read the book, but I'd say from what we saw, Percy was likely abused as a child. His reaction to being grabbed by Wild Bill (and being put in the cell later) looked like his own PTSD. I'm not saying this to excuse his actions, but rather to complement the actor and director for showing some complexity/vulnerability to an otherwise thoroughly unpleasant and irredeemable character.
