3 The Book(S) Many people don’t know that The Green Mile was actually a series of novels , six books to be precise , all written in a period of six months by the notorious writer Stephen King. That shows how passionate the author was at that time of his career. There is even an interview where he said that everything was covered with pages in his apartment at the time he wrote the series. One year after the books were published they were republished as a single paperback volume , which made it much easier too read an made it 1# New York Times Bestseller.

4 The Plot It's just another normal day on the Green Mile for prison guard Paul Edgecomb. That is until huge John Coffey is sent there. Unlike the hulking brute that Coffey looks like, he is in fact kind at heart. Whilst watching over Coffey, Edgecomb learns that there is more to Coffey than can be seen. -FilmFanUK
