"The Green Mile", like "The Shawshank Redemption," tells a story that takes place in prison. If we call "The Shawshank Redemption" an epic or a legend that shocks our senses or minds, then "Miracle in the Green Mile" should be called a fairy tale, a beautiful fairy tale, you clearly I know it's not real, but I still believe it like a seven- or eight-year-old girl...
Green Miles, a very poetic name, but the literal translation is difficult for Chinese people to understand and accept intuitively, and we can't take it literally. Translate this wonderful fairy tale. The translation of "Miracle in the Green Mile" probably wants to tell the Chinese audience the bottom line - telling you the type of story bluntly, in fact, it is also explaining it to everyone, which is very good, but unknowingly throws the poetic fairy tale dream in the out of cloud nine.
If there are such miracles, I hope the more the better. Life is not a movie, nor a fairy tale. The vast majority of people will experience things we don't like and people we don't like most of the time. There are always some villains who are successful, and there are always things that we can't see happening right in front of us, making those of us who love justice and passionate people indignant but helpless. The mountain of life is on our shoulders. As ordinary people, we have no way or ability to change. We can only watch and accept silently... So, I hope to see such a miracle happen, and The more the better. Let the scavengers like Big Coffey punish the bad guys; let the bully assholes like Pesci down; let the bad guys like Billy perish!
Beyond the story itself, I don’t know the background or metaphors reflected in the film. From the film itself, the storyline is coherent and not procrastinated, although it lasts for three hours; under ordinary images, there are large and small hidden everywhere. A small surprise; the characters are full of images, vivid in character, and the emotional catharsis of the characters is just right.
We love Big Coffey, the maker of the Green Mile miracle, and although we technically have a lot of question marks about him, we don't want to solve it. When he sat in the electric chair and was pushed to death in disarray, I'm sure most of the moviegoers shed tears of sadness like the jailers present, we just love the big man who made the miracle, we just hope the big man does it More miracles...
Let's take a look at the big guy in this film - Uncle Tom Hanks, as the absolute male lead and the narrator of this fairy tale, this time he is willing to be a green leaf. In fact, his role is the same as our audience: witnesses to miracles. It's just that his distance is closer. From this perspective, it is actually a microcosm and a representative of our audience. This is also the fascinating thing about the movie - it resonates with the audience.
"Miracle in the Green Mile" is a good movie, I seem to have heard the protagonists mention it in "How I Met Your Mother". This is a very fresh story and a wonderful miracle. Hope for such miracles, and the more the merrier.
