Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey dive into The Green Mile, the powerful 1999 classic directed by Frank Darabont (The Shawshank Redemption, The Mist). Set on death row at Cold Mountain Penitentiary during the Great Depression, the film follows veteran guard Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks – Forrest Gump, Cast Away) as he encounters a gentle giant of a prisoner whose presence changes everyone on the Mile forever. That prisoner is John Coffey, played by Michael Clarke Duncan (Armageddon, Daredevil), a man convicted of a horrific crime but possessing a mysterious, miraculous gift that seems to heal pain and reveal truth. As Paul and his fellow guards wrestle with faith, justice, and what it means to be truly good, the Green Mile becomes a place where the line between the human and divine blurs. The supporting cast is stacked with memorable characters: David Morse (Contact, Disturbia) as the loyal head guard Brutus “Brutal” Howell; Bonnie Hunt (Jumanji, Cheeper by the Dozen) as Jan Edgecomb; Sam Rockwell (Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri, Jojo Rabbit) as volatile inmate “Wild Bill” Wharton; Doug Hutchison (Lost, Punisher: War Zone) as sadistic guard Percy Wetmore; Michael Jeter (Sister Act 2, Patch Adams) as trembling prisoner Eduard “Del” Delacroix; James Cromwell (Babe, L.A. Confidential) as the stern Warden Hal Moores; Barry Pepper (Saving Private Ryan, 25th Hour) as inmate Dean Stanton.

Oh, boy. Oh, no. Oh, snap. William Sadler? Damn, he was in Shawshank, too. Is he a Frank Deribant regular?
Starting point is 00:04:00 This is interesting, like, I don't know, like echoed out audio. Like, you can't really hear what's happening. Or it's, like, slowly starting to come into focus. Yeah, I hear dogs. I am very concerned for the implication of that ripped piece of cloth back there. I really hope that didn't come from a dress of some kind. Oh, boy. Oh.
Starting point is 00:04:29 You love your sister. You might get in the last, no way happens. Whoa. Real type of shot. Nice color. Nice shadow contrast, I should say. Looking good, man. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:04:55 Look at that. Old people have it so good. Dude. Back to the cafeteria. Some Danish this morning? Two pieces of dry toast take to things. Left over is fine. Aw.
Starting point is 00:05:06 Same as always. Cold as man. Mm-hmm. Especially on those long walks. Like long walks on the lawn and toast? Don't let Nurse Godzilla catch you. What's Nurse Godzilla? Where do you go?
Starting point is 00:05:21 Every day. Just walk. Kind of sounds like Tom Hanks. Is he going to walk a mile out in the greens? Mm-hmm. I don't even walk amongst the cows, huh? That's cool. You're going to feed the birds or something with that toast?
Starting point is 00:05:41 Oh, no. No? He just likes his cold toast. My toast. My pocket toast. Yeah. Saving it for a rainy day. Whatever you do, if you find a mysterious book, do not read it.
Starting point is 00:06:01 Oh, Jerry Springer, classic show of the 90s and early 2000s. Why do we always watch this stuff? It's interesting. A bunch of in-bred trailer trash. All they ever talk about is. That's kind of true. The one that causes people more than... Is going to let you try the body strider.
Starting point is 00:06:26 Yeah, you can't come back. Whoa. Are you all right? You look tired. You're not yourself. No, I'm fine. I promise. Uh-oh.
Starting point is 00:06:35 I just didn't sleep well, so. I had a few bad dreams. It happens. I'll be fine. Well, Scott, too, so troubled. Well, if Madge doesn't care, I certainly don't. I haven't seen a quality program in 25 years. I've had to be.
Starting point is 00:06:51 And my heartbeats so that I can hardly speak Hmm Aww What's this bringing back for you, man? Aww Aww Aww Aww
Starting point is 00:07:12 Oh Oh Oh Is the movie is self-triggering our memory, or is it just the sight of young love? Whoa. Where is this place? I guess sometimes the pest just catches up with you whether you wanted to or not. Hmm.
Starting point is 00:07:38 Was it the film? I haven't spoken of these things for a long time, Elliot, over 60 years. Dang. I'm your friend. I ever tell you that I was a prison guard during the Depression? Oh, snap. The dimension that I was in charge of Death Row that I supervised all the executions.
Starting point is 00:07:56 I knew he's... Okay. Death Row was called the last mile. We called ours the Green Mile. Oh. The floor was the color of faded lines. Fascinating. We had the electric chair.
Starting point is 00:08:10 Oh, sparky. We called it. Of course. Oh, I've lived a lot of years, Ellie. But 1935, that takes a surprise. He's definitely the older Michael Clark, Dunker. There was also the year of John Coffey and the two dead girls. John Coffey.
Starting point is 00:08:27 Ooh. Oh. Oh. Damn. Production values on this are going to be wild. Yeah. Look at how many people they got. Jesus.
Starting point is 00:08:41 Yeah. All right. This is post-slavery, but it's definitely, you know, feels reminiscent and it feels like it's in the South. Awuga! What was the old guy's name again? Paul? Paul? I think it was Paul. Barry Pepper.
Starting point is 00:09:05 I'm more a friend of Larry Salt, personally. Oh, yeah. Oh shit, and then David Morse? Oh. Oh, yeah. You're in pain? Oh, yeah. You got that urinary tract infection.
Starting point is 00:09:23 There's Paul. Oh, I hate that for you. Oh, God. Piss and razor blaze, yeah. Oh, I hate that for you. UTI is no joke. I'm not going to have one, but geez. You should have took the day off going to see the doctor.
Starting point is 00:09:39 Sounds painful, though. The new arrival, you know better. It's not as bad as it was. You're just clearing up. Yeah, you got a whole two drops. out of there. At the time of filming this, I recently saw Shawshank, so this is going to be an interesting compliment. Shawshank's great. Love that movie. It is a tremendous film. Might be a perfect film. What do I do? Do you boss of springs? Oh, Jesus. Ouch.
Starting point is 00:10:09 Dead man. Dead man walking. Oh, crap. You might want to reconsider getting in the cell with this guy. He's a nonsense. Can't be bigger than you.

Percy calls his aunt and squeals like a schoolroom sissy. No. He assaulted prison this morning, had a sheer petulance, broke three fingers at Edwaddeiard's left hand. I didn't hear that part.

You better to think of this place like as an intensive care ward of a hospital. I think of it as a bucket of piss to drown rats in. Get this guy out of here. You kiss my ass.
Starting point is 00:24:35 I'm so used to the abode abusive prison guard trope that it's refreshing that all the other ones are normal. Or least seem like decent men, except for Percy. We all know your connections are, Percy. You ever threaten a man on this block again. We all going to have a go. Job be damned. I'm looking forward to it. What'd you do, man?

Starting point is 00:27:05 Yeah, this is a very morbid thing. What's you're doing? Oh, my God. Oh, my God. That's how that's done. Oh, yeah, absolutely. You'll never throw the switch on a man without that. Was, he just going to burn his hair off?
Starting point is 00:27:31 Wow. You put the black coat on to make it less graphic for the people watching? Your electricity should now be passed through your body until you are dead. And according to state law, God have mercy on your soul. Jesus Christ. Roll on two. Camera rolls. Come on, y'all.

Oh, God. you'd have like whole groups come by for something like this this is there's not much to do on a Saturday night you know I guess not you know the 30s were different buy some tickets oh just shaking his head so he can get electrocated you think if a man sincerely repents on what he'd done wrong that he might get to go

Spent her first summer in the mountains. I made love every night. Dang. She'd lie there after, bare-breasted in the firelight.

Starting point is 00:29:18 You'll do fine. Bro. Also, even though I know this isn't the way, there's a level of, like, sad morbidness to the fact that this actor just passed in real life yeah totally gives an additional weight of mortality
Starting point is 00:29:35 yeah you gotta die with a wet head terrible yeah that's got to be big uncomfortable oh oh I hate it the electricity you hear in the background too this now feels so much heavier and more awful than what we just saw
Starting point is 00:29:51 a minute ago God have mercy on your soul Oh my god Oh my god I hate it I hate it I already feel it on my chest Yeah the crackle of the

Starting point is 01:05:02 You can hear him up there. What in the hell happen? An execution, a successful one. You're not going to write him out? Can you call that a success? And Dwar Deliquire's dad, isn't he? Poise. I didn't know.
Starting point is 01:05:17 The sponge is supposed to be weighed. How many years you spend pissing on a toilet seat before someone told you to put it up? Percy fucked up. Jesus. That's your official position? Don't you think it should be? It's putting in. Transfer request to Briar Ridge tomorrow.

Starting point is 01:06:34 whatsoever you do unto my people you do unto me. Literally feeling the execution happen. Literally feeling his pain, yeah. and he can perform miracles.
Starting point is 01:06:46 Still curious what made him cry when he was older. Oof. I hate this. I know. Huh. We getting together for lunch. Oh, shit. Frigan, it's her.
Starting point is 01:07:08 That's good. That's good. Yeah. What's a bad day? Sometimes she's not a self anymore. She swears. She swear it just pops out. Nope.
Starting point is 01:07:17 Most awful language you can imagine. She doesn't even know she's doing it. Wow. I didn't know she's ever heard words like that. To hear us say them in her sweet force. I'm glad she's having a good day, Paul. I'm glad for you and Jan. No.
Starting point is 01:07:32 You got to propose it, man. Do you got to let him know about coffee? You don't tell me what's on your mind. I'm afraid I'll have to smother you with a pillar. I'm thinking I love you. I'm thinking I love you. I don't know what I would do if you were gone. Oh.
Starting point is 01:07:45 I'm also thinking I'm going to have the boys over tomorrow. The boys? Well, you sure do. Know how to cook chicken. I guess this is your whole social life. You can a hoggle them taters? Yes, I am. How did you get that name?
Starting point is 01:07:59 You all saw what he did the mouth. I could have gone rest of the day without you bringing that out of. He did the same thing to me. He put his hands on me. He took my blood infection away. Praise the Lord. He came home that day. He was all better.
Starting point is 01:08:11 Ha. His subtext. Huh. Authentic healing. I praise Jesus' miracle. I am. Oh, yeah. What's he got to do with us?

Starting point is 01:08:43 So you're talking about taking John Coffey to hurt. Whoa. Yeah. See, now, the way I figure it, you stay back on the mile. That way you could deny everything. What do I have to stay behind? Well, you can include them in the conversation. Our boys grown up, gone off to school, Harry's girls.

Starting point is 01:09:11 I'm sure she's a fine woman. The finest. Hmm. I have no doubt, but we don't know it like you and Jandu, do we? And let's not forget, John Coffey is a murderer. Is he, though? What if he escapes? I'd hate to lose my job or go to prison,
Starting point is 01:09:25 but I hate worse to have a dead child on my conscience. I don't think that's going to happen. I don't think it's going to happen the first time. I don't think he did it at all. God putting a gift like that in the hands of a man. Child. Well, that's a very tender notion, but the man is on death row for the crime. Like, that's never happened by mistake.
Starting point is 01:09:40 I think a lot of bullets to stop him. Oh, we'd all have shotgun. Addition to side arms. I'd assist on that. Hey. If he tried anything, we'd have to take him down. It's worth a shot. What are we going to drug him?

I want to thank people over to Prepper for cutting down these highlights. Thomas Newman. Thomas Newman. There we go. Um, yeah. So you guys can see this here on YouTube.
Starting point is 01:41:32 Freaking A. That was a movie and a half. In fact. Um. yeah so uh we're gonna get into uh some questions in a little bit sent over by our patrons but um before we do that john how you feeling boy feelings on the movie i'm exhausted i'm rung out bonnie hunt that's her name um yeah that was incredible it's been fascinating to visit these two frank dera
Starting point is 01:42:07 punt directed movies that are both, you know, adapting the more thoughtful side of Stephen King. And God, what a tour to force both of these movies were. And so affecting and so well acted and so kind of thoughtful and poetic. It's fascinating. And I, and again, I wonder how this reads on paper. I wonder what details may have been spared because this is a thicker movie than Shawshank is but yeah this was so well done and yeah I went
Starting point is 01:42:41 places I was not expecting in terms of both the drama but also the supernatural aspects as well I'm gonna be chewing on and processing this for a minute but this was just so
Starting point is 01:42:58 beautifully done and it has a great ensemble the production values are incredible this was you can really feel the the love and the care that went into this definitely so yeah I thought this was really terrific about you oh man um yeah this movie was beautiful this movie was really sad and really allows you to appreciate life and you know we watch a lot of movies here for this channel and this is one of the ones where you know you just kind of watch like if you were watching this in a theater you just kind of walk out and just kind of in silence
Starting point is 01:43:37 and just like sit in your car for a little bit and just like blonder the experience you just had absolutely and yeah with the movie like this you just kind of want to soak it in and kind of sit in it to just reminisce over the things that you just experienced um and yeah i would say that's kind of home feeling right now i'm i'm feeling this sense of appreciation and analyz analysis of life and you know how we treat each other and what it just what it means to to be good what it means to be human um and yeah just appreciation that a movie like this exists you know my whole life without seeing this movie and thinking about just the
Starting point is 01:44:34 altruistic nature of who John Coffey was and how like this movie made me feel like this is a real guy like he was just he just cared
Starting point is 01:44:50 and felt so deeply for human life um yeah I feel like this guy really just passed before my eyes and I'm like kind of a little shuckin by that but also witnessing how the effects of somebody like that
Starting point is 01:45:07 play into the appreciation for the experience that Paul had. But also these performances were all incredible as well if we're just talking about the film on a technical level. The music was incredible. All the performances were really believable. I was extremely inventive. invested in, you know, Paul and John and their relationship, and I hated Bill and I hated
Starting point is 01:45:39 Percy with a passion. And I think that those two characters met their face in a way that was very narratively gratifying. Um, yeah, dude, I'm, I'm, I'm befuddled. I'm just a little bit at a loss but I think that's okay um that's so you know something added impact yeah something that's something special you're just kind of caught in the afterglow exactly yeah um but what is something i will say that's that's a major positive of this movie is that i did not feel the runtime i was just yeah it was extremely well-paced and did a good job of endearing you to the characters from the jump and yeah i just uh really really enjoyed it Such a steady hand.
Starting point is 01:46:33 Like, hats off to Frank Darabon. I mean, obviously, dude's been around. He's been doing a ton of, he's done a ton of movies, he's done TV, he's done everything. But watching both Shawshank and this in tight succession, like, these are incredible. Like, these couple movies are especially incredible. And, like, the amount of assuredness it takes to pull something like this off, but also thoughtfulness is wild. And I know that oftentimes. things get changed in adapting the Stephen King stories or whatever but um he just seems to be a guy who
Starting point is 01:47:07 like is so well attuned to the spirits of what these stories want to be i assume i imagine it feels that way certainly like these movies feel definitive sure yeah and yeah just like so much craft and skill on display and and it's not distracting it's like oh look at me you know it's just it's to make a movie like this that, yeah, that glides and that is affecting and that, yeah, never drags or anything like that is really
Starting point is 01:47:38 a mark of immense skill and prowess. Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. But I have to imagine we have some questions that kind of color the rest of our conversation here. Absolutely do. All righty.
Starting point is 01:47:58 Okay, all right. we are now getting into the questions some small period of time has passed between the last thing i said now because it is very cold in the studio so i currently have a this is the coldest studio we have they're all in the same air conditioning unit and so every shooting space it responds differently to that we are in the room that gets coldest fastest yeah we have this shoot room another studio in the podcast room and yeah this is the coldest of the three to get the others temperate we we have to go into like a freezing mode in this room so this is a little hard to work against especially when you're like well I have to leave the AC on otherwise they're going to boil so anyway right
Starting point is 01:48:45 yeah so you guys thank you we got a bunch of questions today thank you so much for sending these in I'm excited to get into the questions so without further ado Lob star, the Green Mile. I'm so glad you guys are watching this movie. It's, in my opinion, the best Stephen King adaptation. Question is, what do you think of everyone's performances? I think no character was wasted in this film. Agree?
Starting point is 01:49:17 I know. It was a terrific ensemble. Everyone's really well cast and everybody shows up and leaves an impression. even characters who were only there for a small period of time, you know, even people who are like in these incidental almost sort of stream of consciousness feeling bits or whatever. Like, yeah, this was a real tour to force in terms of acting and casting all around.
Starting point is 01:49:41 Like there's almost not enough that you could say to encompass. Yeah. Just the terrific work on display. Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. I think, yeah, Tom Cruise. Not Tom Cruise. Tom Hanks was great. Michael Claude Duncan, R.A.P.
Starting point is 01:50:00 Oh, man. I didn't even think about that. He's actually dead in real life as well. Yeah, he was amazing in this movie. I don't know if he got nominated, but he definitely should have because I feel like it's a not an easy role to believeably play somebody
Starting point is 01:50:16 who is physically, you know, very imposing, yet someone who is so warm and so loving and gentle and gentle at the same time and but you without feel like it's a hard balance to sort of walk to be somebody who does physically look so intimidating we're also being so sincerely warm and and you like you feel protective of him in in a way where you're You know, he's, he's too good for this world. You know, you want him to be this, this guy who is so, I don't know, he's, you feel like he deserves better.
Starting point is 01:51:06 And it sucks that he is someone who got the faith that he did. But everyone else is so, also is really great in the movie as well. Yeah, I absolutely loved all the performances. Sam Rockwell was definitely an unexpected surprise and you hated him so much in this movie. He did a fantastic job. You also hated Percy and all the other, all the other guards, you know, you really felt for them as well. You really believe that these four guys were above the average interpretation of what we perceive like prison guards to be. Because it's normally some like some foul play or like, you know, they're really abusing their power, sadistic.
Starting point is 01:51:51 exactly so i feel like they did a good job of portraying these empathetic guys who just wanted to do their jobs and really believed in what this guy john coffee um could do for for the world and and for healing people um and yeah really felt his loss so everyone did a great job um thank you so much for the question lobster here here all right star dust and madness this is one of those movies that should have won all the awards. My Claude Duncan is phenomenal in the role of John Coffey, and I think he was robbed of an Oscar. Wow, I wholeheartedly agree.
Starting point is 01:52:30 Yeah. Who do you think was the cruelest character ever created for a work of fiction? And why is it Percy Wetmore? Oh, golly. Oh, God. There are a lot of, oh. There's a lot of really fricked, messed up characters in movies. um percy because he's just a conniving little bitch who hates who hates people and who you know he has a power complex of like wanting to impose his will on these people that are gonna they're dying anyway and he's just so petty he just freaking sucked but there's a lot of really great bad guys in movies um and just works a fiction in general so it's hard for me to
Starting point is 01:53:16 pin one down because there's so many but all the top of my head percy was pretty awful and so was um so was bill bill was awfully trash they were both trash um so yeah any any bad characters coming off of uh your mind right now get no frills delivered shop the same in store prices online and enjoy unlimited delivery with pc express pass get your first year for 250 a month learn more at c a max katie uh in cape fear mercer pretty pretty cruel cruel guy nurse ratchet uh in one floo over the cuckoo's nest very very cruel character uh like i i'm half curious to watch a clockwork orange again when i saw it i found it i know people love that movie i found it rather off putting and uh alex delar is very off-putting characters and is, you know, gleefully cruel.
Starting point is 01:54:22 I need to watch it again. I've been watched it since high schools. I don't really remember what happened. Frigin Denzel and Training Day, pretty freaking cruel after a while. The Calvin Candy and Django is pretty cruel. That is an immensely cruel role. I thought he should have got the Oscar for that one. Yeah, it's terrible.
Starting point is 01:54:44 Yeah. There are a lot of good. ones though I'm trying to see if there's anybody I might have forgotten glorious bastards yeah I'm pretty cruel I mean you know what's the guy's name in Schindler's list certainly never seen Shindler's list certainly mad cruel it's been a minute since I've seen it but uh yeah I'm sure there are other good ones but those are a few that came to my mind I'm sure there are a lot of war movies of characters like that too I was looking atable villains right now yeah just look
Starting point is 01:55:16 up like you know oh i want to watch road to oh you know what i just watched who's a pretty hateable dude who's that um christopher lloyd and um grim roger rabbit that guy sucks he was he was very evil he's very evil i will give you that it was very fun to watch but also it was very evil uh joe peshy in what casino is a pretty pretty freaking cruel and unpredictable scary guy um baby jane
Starting point is 01:55:48 whenever happened to baby jane it's pretty cruel there were a lot we could go on but uh but yeah those are something that came to my mind
Starting point is 01:55:56 yeah those are definitely some uh some good ones but i mean percy yeah percy certainly was uh definitely again props to that actor because uh thankless role hateable guy
Starting point is 01:56:07 and uh yeah and brought you could tell you could extrapolate who this guy is from his choices and that's good it's like he brought humanity even though you're never getting very sympathetic with him so yeah but yeah certainly earns a
Starting point is 01:56:23 spot among the cruelest especially in an environment where he provides such a contrast and he's the guy you were expecting the other guards to be essentially you know uh yeah well definitely thank you for the question star dust and madness absolutely you're a gem you're a superstar you were a death on death row what would be your last meal oh it would be like an ADD feast it would be like give me some sushi give me a burger king original chicken sandwich uh I want a ficcatcha bread pizza I want a cream soda I want like an Oreo milkshake I want an ice coffee I want all this shit that I love give me some with lemon in it oh that be nice oh man It's tough because I'm like, there's so many good foods that I like.
Starting point is 01:57:19 Taramisu, lemon cake. If I could just have something that I, if I knew I wouldn't get sick and I could just eat all the things that I wanted to eat, oh man, let's freaking give me an omelette, give me like a nice, hearty steak, give me a good burger, some of the best chicken strips in the world, give me some of the best fries in the world, some bomb sushi as well. Oh, okay. We had to go stupid with it.
Starting point is 01:57:47 What else can we get? We had a fucking tomahawk steak. Never had one of those before. Okay. Yeah, maybe some, I don't know. Some fried tacos. Give me one last hot dog. Classic, you know?
Starting point is 01:58:07 Sure, you know, keep it easy. Keep it simple. Absolutely. Yeah, I would say those would be my, yeah, for sure, an ADD concoffiny of different things. Also, some chocolate milk, because I love me some chocolate milk. Absolutely.
Starting point is 01:58:19 Yeah, but I feel like that answers the question. What would your last meal be, guys? I'm curious to hear all them last meals, yeah. Thanks for sending in the question. Here you go. Appreciate you. Hey. A double clap.
Starting point is 01:58:30 All righty then, Melissa Taylor. Hey, John and Aaron. This is a powerful film, disturbing, heartbreaking, and hopeful all that once between playing tombs on the air. X-Files and Percy Whitmore in this film, Doug Hutchison sure had a knack of for playing evil sadistic characters. Do you think the film was successful in using Percy's cruelty to highlight the potential for abuse of power in the justice system? Johnny? Yeah, I mean, we've seen characters like this in films that have highlighted, I think, something similar.
Starting point is 01:59:09 I think it's interesting the way it is presented here. And I think that, yeah, he represents the kind of person who you suspect, like, you know, the things that get them off and the things that make them feel, you know, powerful or successful or whatever you want to call it, you know, are not that far away from the people that, you know, he's on the other side of the bars from. And there are lots of obviously movies that kind of highlight that fact of like, you know, the only difference between these criminals. and those criminals are the bars and you're getting paid to treat us terribly, blah, blah, blah. But I mean, yeah, like, certainly he seems like a guy who, you know, has all these connections, wants to be here, who thinks he wants to be the executioner,
Starting point is 01:59:53 who wants to, you know, be that cold iron hand of, quote, justice. And yet, you feel, yeah, the evil in this guy, and there are certainly probably people who get into, I mean, you know, it's well-documented people who can, can, not always, but can join the military as an excuse to, you know, let out their bloodlust. There are also people who might, you know, go into a place like a prison, which is, you know, obviously theoretically intended for either rehabilitation or to house people until the end of life. And, uh, and yeah, this seems like a guy who wants kind of a free legal license to be cruel and
Starting point is 02:00:32 to lord power. Uh, and that's a very real thing. So, uh, yeah, I feel like he, it you know in a it was an interesting way to do it having him be the one guard who most heavily embodies that and the rest of the guards the rest of the prison staff are relatively sympathetic in this movie and i think it's it does nicely for what the story's trying to do and also you know pays service to that idea that yeah like you know a lot of the people guarding and conducting the prisons are no better you know yeah no i think uh they did a great job of performing in this role and I think that yeah it did you know we said it multiple times in the film that it is surprising that some of the other characters were not of that sadistic vein but and I think that stems from you know both in real life and in other films the trope of the evil or you know power abusing guards is is very prevalent you know i think a lot of people want to feel powerful who view themselves as weak so they project this thing of being powerful and being in lording that power over people who they feel
Starting point is 02:01:52 otherwise would not submit to them so yeah it is really messed up um the highlighting the potential for abuse in power yeah i think that did a great a great job of of showcasing that and you Yeah, I think there just needs to be greater screenings for people in their tendencies and psych evals for people in power because it happens all the time in prisons on the streets and other countries and it needs to stop. And then, yeah, there's a lot of pain. It's being caused. A lot of death. Unnecessary death is happening all over the world. One too.
Starting point is 02:02:35 It's like he's not only doing this to take out something on the prisoners themselves. He's also sort of inflated his own sense of status due to his connections. And so he's able to like try and leverage that on to the people he works with and, you know, yada yada. So there is that too. It's like it plays on both sides. Not only his torture of the inmates who are under his quote care, but also the way in which he tries to push his superiors and peers around with. his, you know, unique connections and whatnot, a person who thinks they're above and outside of the law, essentially.
Starting point is 02:03:11 Yeah, yeah. And it's really aggravating to watch in the context of the film. And I have to imagine there's definitely a lot of people in positions of power that, you know, toss their weight around because like, oh, my dad's a senator, like some shit like that. Yeah. Yeah, I'm happy you got his come up. It's because, like, dude, freaking. sucked. He's a little, little, little bitch boy.
Starting point is 02:03:40 Bad, bad, bad, bad, bad. Bad, bad, dude. Thank you so much with the question. I appreciate you. All right, Brandon Davis. Thank you for sending in the question. Just to get it out of the way, I absolutely adore you guys. We adore you too. Love you. Thank you. Appreciate you. I always kind of wish Percy had ended up on the mild. What do you think of that versus?
Starting point is 02:04:05 where he ended up also rest in peace gram green yeah all right p graham green for sure that's fresh um yeah I don't know that's tough
Starting point is 02:04:17 because like yeah because I think that would have been a you know a suitable fate for him granted the only person he killed in the movie was a mouse and then I guess the and then that mouth went to
Starting point is 02:04:31 far exceed his lifespan presumably But yeah, I think that could have been satisfying, but also him just like in a days and finally getting out of that place and him, you know, being a different kind of prisoner in another location in a mental facility because that dude was messed up. He had problems even if he didn't murder anybody. So I think for me was satisfying because he would never be the same after the experience of that prison and John Coffey. so yeah I think that would have been nice I don't think it would have narratively made sense but I think that from my fan gratification point of view it would have been very satisfying to hit him in the chair without the wet spun so he could feel what Dale field right before he passed and tell him some stuff he doesn't want to know in his final days and hours like well actually um We talked to every woman you've ever been with, and they say, you have a very small penis. And they're all here to watch you die.
Starting point is 02:05:41 And they're going to laugh at you. But, yeah, those are my short thoughts on there. What about you, Ben? I was content with where he wound up because it's a death unto itself, really. And I get how, like, yeah, it's that weird. the transitory nature of him taking on this darkness that, you know, John Coffey has absorbed and, and, you know, all of that pain and ugliness swirling around inside.
Starting point is 02:06:12 And you have to imagine that, you know, Bill's actions were in there, too. And, you know, Bill is the guy who did, you know, traumatize this, you know, for all the things you can say about Percy, certainly nobody deserves whatever horrid altercation happen when you know bill pulls him up in the thing and starts canoodling his bum uh you know i feel like it yeah for me it was proportional and it made sense that he should you know like go into this sort of fugue you know unload on bill who is like in a lot of ways the target of his you know pain and frustration here initially the the number one person who has undermined him here.
Starting point is 02:06:56 And so to have him take him out, who's a character who we really hate and we know, it's funny. I've been watching, you know, Dexter obviously on the channel and a big thing that factors into that is like the code. And so like it seems like Bill has done more than enough things to justify, you know, being shuffled off the mortal coil. Percy's an asshole and a, you know, small person spiritually speaking. But I don't know if I would have put him on death row necessarily. And I think the poetic irony of him, you know, one way or another,
Starting point is 02:07:34 getting that transfer, you know, is pretty good. You know, I think that as a literary kind of payoff is nicely proportioned. So while, again, yes, as like a movie watching fan, you know, in my id brain, I'm like, yeah, cook them. At the same time, I'm like, I think this is a more poetic. And something that, yeah, certainly still harkens toward the death of something. And it seems like he's just going to spend the rest of his life in a catatonic state. So, you know, it's almost worse having to just live and suffer and be this husk than it is to, you know, have it.
Starting point is 02:08:11 I mean, you know, it is also terrible to die because that is permanent and final. But at the same time, it seems like, yeah, he is able to go on suffering. And in a way that, you know, now he is a pretty. prisoner himself and he gets to kind of you know somewhere down the dark corridor of his own mind live out you know some version of what he was on the other side of so uh as much as it would be more that if he wound up on the mile i don't know if it would be you would have to do too much stuff and focus on other things too much i think in the context of this to to do that and then have him show up as i just feel like it would add a whole other wing of the movie whereas doing
Starting point is 02:08:53 this i thought was like a really nice little ribbon on that story yeah i think it wouldn't have flowed the same i thought yeah it was suitable for what he uh had uh went through yeah or yeah but appreciate the question thank you so much all right jaden roads jane rose talking about the green mile ha ha i'm not sure if you've cried as much watching the movie before all actors bring it um but my question is i think i think it's i'm not sure i've cried as much watching oh my bad i haven't dyslexic a little bit no no no it's it's okay it's how it is written uh there must have been an auto correct somewhere in there but yeah i'm not sure if i've cried as much watching a movie before all the actors bring it they do they do uh but my question is
Starting point is 02:09:44 since this is a stephen king's story do you think this sticks as one of his best or do you i prefer some other ones um i think this is one of his best granted i can't speak to all i don't have like a large experience of all of his work i have it and then i got this and i maybe a couple other ones that i did not know were him um so yeah what about you man what do you think yeah there's certain ones i have to see i've never seen misery um i mean you know there's what carry there's I like the mist a lot Yeah The Secret Window 1408
Starting point is 02:10:23 There's a bunch of stuff In the Stephen King filmog This is definitely one of the best I mean like it's it's a toss up Between like a Shawshank Or the Shining Or this and Not really yeah I forgot shining was him as well
Starting point is 02:10:40 He is just such a wide variety of different types of storytelling Yeah He's done so that's It is tough to kind of pick but this one for sure stands the towards the top for me just because I think that it just captures a lot of heart and and pain and humanity in a lot of ways yeah it's this and uh and shaw shank kind of duking it out and uh you know at the top because they're both they they have similarities obviously shashank is is you know more grounded and and has a a different
Starting point is 02:11:17 kind of payoff that's a little less you know heart wrenching by the end it's it's a more of a sort of tears of joy and relief whereas this is you know certainly bittersweet but i think these two movies are absolutely toward a force i mean it's hard to pick between them and um i don't know how they read on paper which is why like oftentimes if you're saying like what's the best stephen king's story it's like you can't i don't necessarily foist the shining first because i'm well aware that it is not very similar to the book and so I don't know how this or Shawshank you know
Starting point is 02:11:52 correspond to their source material but this is definitely yeah one of the best as far as I'm concerned and and yeah it's either this or Shawshank like it's they're both fresh in my mind too so it would be really hard to choose one or the other they're both
Starting point is 02:12:08 super emotional super touching they contemplate a lot about the human spirit and the sort of peripheral magic and spirituality of life and what struck me about this was that this does that but also with a supernatural element and a certain it's weird this is the other side of Stephen King there's a stand by me too which I haven't seen a long long long time I feel
Starting point is 02:12:35 like I feel like that could be a contender too but yeah this one struck me in that yeah it's it's every bit is like the thoughtful Stephen King I've come to understand but also with some of the more supernatural some of the more you know at I wouldn't say horror in totality but there is horror in a story like this both of the human variety and of again the sort of mystery of the supernatural um so yeah it's got to be one of these two I would imagine but ask me again on a different day and I might give you a different answer to my change these are really terrific films yeah thank you so much for the question we appreciate you yeah all right I'll read this one.
Starting point is 02:13:16 Roby, Bobar, Papyrrata. For John and Aaron on the Green Mile. Hi, guys, how's it going? One. This is one of Tom Hanks' best performances. So which other performance of his is your favorite and why? That's a good question, too. Damn.
Starting point is 02:13:32 And two, what is your favorite Stephen King novel and which your favorite adaptation and why? Keep up the good work and chow from Sardinia. You know what? I have read precious little Stephen King. I'm not very qualified to comment on the actual adaptation of and by extension my favorite King novels. I remember we got really into secret window back in the day and I picked up that one, that collection of short stories four minutes to midnight or whatever was called.
Starting point is 02:14:03 But I definitely need to read some Stephen King to get you a real answer on this question. It's, you know, because of the movies and stuff, you have such a cultural osmosis for a lot of his work. I don't have to think for a second on my other favorite Tom Hanks performance. I would love to see Road to Perdition again. It's been a long-ass time since I saw that movie, but I remember him being amazing in that. Huh. That's tough.
Starting point is 02:14:30 I remember I watched it a couple years ago. I really liked him in Terminal. Hey, I like the Terminal. I like the Victorinovorski. Yeah, I think it's, it's underrated. Hichit. Yeah, man. I like that movie.
Starting point is 02:14:46 Obviously, Forrest Gump is one of his classics. Yeah, 100% of course. Yeah, I think I'm blanking on some. I need to see my Tom. Castaway. Big Captain Phillips. Big, never seen Captain Phillips. I need to see, I need to watch a lot more Tom Hanks.
Starting point is 02:15:03 But the ones I have seen, those are great. Obviously, great as Woody. Definitive answer is actually Elvis. wait Elvis oh no he's in Elvis that's right no he's uh he's in that as a very contentious portrayal uh oh da Vinci code of course doi ever seen da Vinci got to be da Vinci code i'm gonna look at this man's or or uh you know we got how about Larry Crown that's the best one ever seen Larry Crown I haven't seen me don't worry you're in good present you're in good company good company Polar Express
Starting point is 02:15:42 that's the best one awesome polar express he's actually he's pretty great and catch me if you can I'd throw that up there I like that's great catch me if you can
Starting point is 02:15:49 it was great catch me if you can is rad um I mean this is easily up there with them this movie was fantastic saving private Ryan
Starting point is 02:15:58 is uh is one you got a shout out I feel like for sure um okay Apollo 13's great I've never seen Philadelphia would love to see Philadelphia I'd love to see the burbs
Starting point is 02:16:10 never seen I would love to see those. Or Joe versus the volcano. I remember liking him as Walt Disney. Oh, that's right. Yeah, and saving Mr. Banks. Yeah. Whatever that is.
Starting point is 02:16:23 There's a Woody car in the Cars movie. I don't remember that. Well, look out now. Oh, ha ha ha ha ha ha. Shouts out to the lady killers. I know nobody likes that movie, but he is very fun to watch, I thought, as that weird character that he does.
Starting point is 02:16:39 in the lady killers the Coen brothers version he is like one of the most charactery performances I've seen Tom Hanks put on a lot of quirks Okay I need to watch more Tom Hanks
Starting point is 02:16:55 Yeah man This might be it This and This one and What's the other one I was thinking of? The Forest Gump might be his best For me He's Green Buller Express
Starting point is 02:17:09 Yeah, those are my two answers Hell yeah Thank you for the question dog For sure Thank you Roby All right Tara Erickson Ola
Starting point is 02:17:23 Just kidding Terra Mononymous Terra Hi John and Aaron Hello to you Well this answers my question During the Shawshank Redemption Q&A Whether you had seen this
Starting point is 02:17:33 Yes in fact Keep your eyes out That video is probably up by now I love this movie But I know people who will never watch it again because it was difficult to get through. What are your thoughts on that? Would you watch this movie again?
Starting point is 02:17:44 Someone already asked you about other evil characters other than Percy. I can think of one from Game of Thrones. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. Joffrey, Ramsey. Oh, yeah, terrible. Shitpags on Game of Thrones. But how would you compare Percy and Wild Bill?
Starting point is 02:17:59 As always, I love your reactions and thoughts. Thank you so much, Tara. I appreciate you. Oh, goodness, gracious me. Ooh, okay. I could, this shot, Ashank, again, is more uplifting as on the whole. I would watch this again.
Starting point is 02:18:16 I would too. I don't think I would not. I mean, it is very emotional and, and there is a lot of heaviness to it. But that's not the only flavor. It's not like oppressive wall to wall the entire time. There's a lot that's very beautiful, that is uplifting, that is sort of triumph of the human spirit, but also thoughtful and spiritual. this is the kind of movie that I would be very curious to go back to see again and to pick up
Starting point is 02:18:44 different details from or read into certain things a little more deeply or whatever. So I can see why you wouldn't want to put yourself through this again, because again, it is very emotional and heartbreaking. And I know that this is, you know, sort of among the great cry movies. But I could definitely watch this again. There's just so much great work. Yeah, I wholeheartedly agree. I think, We watched a lot of movies here, and, you know, some of them I'd put on again and, you know, just for my own entertainment, because I want to show people. Other ones, you know, I don't want to think of that again. Smurfs.
Starting point is 02:19:23 But anyway. Truly traumatic. Truly a traumatizing experience that. Truly. So much blue. Requiem for a dream. All those. You watch Requiem for a dream here?
Starting point is 02:19:33 I still have not seen it, actually, but somebody here just, just watched it. I heard it was a, yeah. And that is the number one. one film of people saying, you know, great movie I'll never watch again. Yeah, I reacted to the, with the person who watched it afterwards, and they were definitely messed up by the experience after the fact.
Starting point is 02:19:52 Sure. Going into a lighter movie was definitely the move after. But, yeah, I think that it is someone, the one I would watch and I would want to invite people who have not seen it to experience it and then talk about it. Because I don't think it's like a, the beautiful thing about this movie is the fact that it's three hours and it's not a tedious watch. It's not a slog fest.
Starting point is 02:20:18 Yeah. It's very well-paced and it has interesting characters and people you care about. And I feel like this is one of those movies that you may even benefit from multiple viewings in the first place. And you knowing the fate of what happens may make watching it even more bittersweet. I don't know. I feel like this is one of those ones I would, you know, like a fine wine. You know, it would age well with more viewings. But what was the other question?
Starting point is 02:20:48 Was there a second question here? One, and knowing where it's going to land on a second viewing, I think, might make it a bit easier. Because, again, you can kind of observe and you know what is coming, but also even his acceptance of death is sort of beautiful in its own way. Yeah. It's not dower, even though it's, like, heartbreaking. It's not a dower movie. No, I weirdly feel, I don't want to say hova. I don't think that's the right word, but yeah, it makes you just want to show more care
Starting point is 02:21:19 for people, want to show more love for people in the world and, you know, address those in pain. I feel like that's my takeaway from the movie is to just be a better person, just to go out of your way to try to do what you can to aid and help. help people in pain in your small corner of the world. I think that is the legacy of Mr. John Coffey and what we should take away from it, or at least what I'll take away from it. But yeah, thank you for the question, Tara.
Starting point is 02:21:48 Appreciate you. Do we get Percy and Wild Bill? Oh, my bad. We've already talked some about this. We did. How did you compare them? I think Wild Bill is actually a psychopath, and I feel like Percy may be a sociopath. feels like nature and nurture like wild bill just feels like this feral thing whereas percy sucks
Starting point is 02:22:17 but certainly feels like a more political animal you can kind of see how this guy might have got this way or you could imagine what influences led to this whereas wild bill just seems completely unhinged he had some craziness in him before wild bill him came to the picture because he's, like, tearing the place apart trying to get that mouse. I was like, I'll squish it. I'll squish the life out of that mouse. Oh, yeah, yeah. So there was some, you know, some tennis season there.
Starting point is 02:22:43 He reeks of a guy who's been made to feel small and who wants power, but doesn't really have the grit yet to actually be shit. Yeah. You know. I feel like he, yeah, he was a little small dick of boy. He wanted to be a big dick boy, but he didn't have the energy to do that. So that sucks on you. You go fucking rod.
Starting point is 02:23:04 a hole and think about what you did forever on the loop. But yeah, that's how I feel about that. Thank you so much for the question, Tara. Appreciate you. All right, Johnny Boy, is our last question. Keanu-Chinell. Thank you for chiming in, the Green Mile. Hey, Studs!
Starting point is 02:23:20 Hey, yourself. I hope y'all are doing swell this fine Friday slash whenever this is uploaded slash the day when this is uploaded. This movie is incredible and heartbreaking. The performances are top notch, especially from Michael
Starting point is 02:23:36 Clark Duncan, rest in peace, and Tom Hanks. Do you all think justice was served in the end, despite MCD still dying, and do you think Mr. Jingles is still alive and thriving? Again, hope y'all and all of the fine citizens of Reject Nation have a swell day and week.
Starting point is 02:23:51 Same to you. I hope you're doing well out there. Thank you for taking the time, you know, to check this one out, because this is a thick boy. Thickums. But yeah. Yeah. I would say you. I do think justice was served for Percy and Wild Bill. And it's unfortunate because, yeah, I feel like John Coffey made peace with his fate in the end.
Starting point is 02:24:18 He was just in so much pain because of how much empathy he had that he wanted it to stop. But part of me feels like, yeah, I don't know. He could have done more good in the world. But then also he's like in 1935, like racist America. so I think he still could have done good but I feel like the hate he would have received would have not stopped beyond his time within this film I feel like he would have experienced that for many more years to come
Starting point is 02:24:46 and experience many people in pain and I feel like he I don't know yeah I don't think he deserved to die and it really sucks that he died in front of a room people hating him and you know he's not the guy type of guy who would do good for for the sake of being praise he just did good because it was the right thing to do because it was just his nature yeah he was just a a saint in that way so yeah he was literally yeah he was in a way like the the the the Jesus figure you know
Starting point is 02:25:23 he died in front of a group he's people hating him even though he did miracles and stuff and yeah there definitely some parallels there for sure and um yeah any thoughts on that when you fly in emirates business class and you're picked up by your private luxury chauffeur driven car you'll see that your vacation isn't really over until your flight is over fly emirates fly better it's that it kept reminding me of that that f that him that you know whatsoever you do to the least of my people that you do unto me you know this guy who certainly is on a bottom rung of society who is you know absorbing these cruelties and you know performing healing in the face of them like you know yeah there is something very Christly about him um and yeah it again it's that bittersweet thing of like in some ways
Starting point is 02:26:21 justice is served in some ways it's not because obviously his name isn't cleared people don't know the truth but a couple people do and that's important you know there were people there to mourn him. There were people there to love him in his final moments to some extent. And some people at least learn the truth. And, you know, in isolation, in the room where it happened, you know, justice is arguably served. I mean, you know, Wild Bill had to go. Billy the kid had to go.
Starting point is 02:26:52 Bad, bad, evil guy. And so, like, you know, that circle of things, him passing this, you know, this pestilence on to Percy and then you know it's it's it's a fascinating little moment because yeah it's like you know the guy who John Coffey is here in place of is also here and and you know the the balance is somewhat adjusted when he is killed and when the truth is passed along and yeah not everybody's going to see it so there is some level of injustice to his end but I do appreciate it's weird you know because he accepts death and he wants the relief and in some ways you know he gets to rest peacefully now and that's a beautiful
Starting point is 02:27:39 reward but at the same time you bargain and you're like man though if he could have gone living with a clear name somehow but who's to say the trouble wouldn't befall him someplace else down the line because he is such a gentle giant he is so um childlike in so many ways and uh you Yeah, it's weird. There's definitely stuff that obviously you wish it worked out differently, but there is justice afoot. It's just not, I guess, you know, the full breadth of it that you would hope for, you know, for this guy to be vindicated and, you know,
Starting point is 02:28:15 revered in some way for his ability, for his link to, I assume, some divine higher power. Yeah, it's a, it's a rich handling of the stuff to make, you think about it and to you know make you sort of probe it from multiple angles um and i do and i would venture to imagine that i'm just gonna i'm just gonna hope that mr jingles is still out there even still i'm hoping mr jingles is out there and i want to make an addendum to my statement i think that wild bill should have gotten the the dry sponge treatment that i mean yeah dude he went out too easily yeah and it's weird because it's like you know percy shooting him
Starting point is 02:28:57 in a lot of ways there's there's there's there's a lot of interesting stuff about having it go down the way it goes down and for percy it's weird even though he is sort of this vessel of judgment and from then on is just sort of gone at the same time he's sort of getting a revenge of sorts you know for a pretty in isolation shitty situation so this is my butthole blah blah blah yeah exactly uh this is for my dignity and my butt cheeks and uh but uh you know also yeah frying there is almost no fate too awful for bill some might say that yeah it's fast he got off easy you know if he had been cooked without the sponge it would be hard to have that
Starting point is 02:29:41 much sympathy because he truly was just awful every ounce of time he was on screen even when he was being kind of quiet yeah no every awful every second and i wonder if like because some actors are so good at playing these roles that, you know, they get those hate that hate in real life. I wonder if this period in Sam Raqwell's life, people were just like, yo,
Starting point is 02:30:04 fuck you. Yeah, and I mean, too. I'm happy he's bounce back and played other characters because, yeah, this is a real piece of POS character to try to play. Well,
Starting point is 02:30:13 yeah, and I mean, multiple, you know, there were racist characters, but like easily the most overtly racist piece of shit on screen, too, like the way he talks to John Coffey constantly.
Starting point is 02:30:23 It's just disgusting. Yeah. Yeah. Like, in a movie full of nuances, like the one character who is just awful. And I have no sympathy for him. Whatsoever. Yeah. But yeah, you guys.
Starting point is 02:30:39 Well, first off, thank you so much for the questions. We appreciate you guys so much. Yeah, this was terrific. This was really great. This was a great film. And I will cherish it forever. And I'm going to think on it. I'm going to drive home today.
Starting point is 02:30:51 But, yeah, that'll be it for us today. We love you guys and stay good out there. Stay kind and we will see you in the next one. Deuses.
