"Dead man walking"

What can I say. When I first saw this film I cried all the way home form the Trafford Centre back to Preston! This is an awesome film from director Frank Darabont, who also directed my all time favourite film "The Shawshank Redemption" (God knows why you can`t rent that on here?) **

This story is about the inmates on death row and the relationships between them and the empathic guards and one inmate in particular, John Coffey, who is a giant of a man with special healing powers and a fear of the dark. Written by Steven King, the viewer can expect to really get to know the characters and actually give a damn about them in this "feel real" tale that should touch your heart forever. Brilliantly acted throughout, even the mouse! This film should be in everyone`s collection.

** Editor's Note: Unfortunately "The Shawshank Redemption" DVD release was deleted in the UK as from 21/1/2004.
