Whats the moral of the Green mile,,with tom hanks?
There actually is a moral to The Green Mile and it is the same moral in all of Stephen King's movies and novels and that moral is that good overcomes evil in the end. In The Green Mile, john not only takes care of Wild Bill but also Percy who was just as evil as Bill, but he was supposed to be serving the law. Bill ends up dead and Percy in the insane asylum, unable to hurt anyone again. Paul also had to answer for killing John. He did not want to do it, but it was his job. His having to live and watch as all of the people he loved die was a punishment for killing the gift that was John. I have read almost everything that Stephen King has written, and this is the moral he uses the most. That good overcomes evil, whether it is the common man getting one over on the greedy corporate world, or the hero of the story overcoming the nasty, creepy creature. Stephen King is a genius!
What is a better story The Green Mile or Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption?
Other than both being set in a prison and dealing with being falsely accused of crimes they didn't commit, that's pretty much where the similarities end. "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" is more realistic without any supernatural elements, and is told from the point of view of a prisoner. "The Green Mile" has the supernatural elements of John Coffey being able to heal people (and mice) with his hands and is told from the point of view of the prison guard, Paul. There is much more going on in "The Green Mile" that takes place outside of the prison. All that being said, I like "Rita Hayworth" better, just because it has a happier ending.
