Movie of the Year: 1999The Green MileWhy The Green Mile Still Strikes a ChordOn this episode of the Movie of the Year podcast, the Taste Buds step into the hauntingly spiritual world of The Green Mile, Frank Darabont's sweeping 1999 adaptation of the Stephen King novel. Blending magical realism with deeply human storytelling, The Green Mile tackles justice, pain, and the inexplicable mysteries of life—and the panel is here to unpack it all.As they revisit this emotional powerhouse, the Taste Buds examine the film's artistry, cultural context, and why it continues to resonate with audiences decades later. Whether listeners are longtime fans or curious newcomers, this discussion sheds light on the film's enduring significance.Darabont and King: Adapting The Green MileFew director-author pairings have produced such emotionally resonant work as Frank Darabont and Stephen King. After the success of The Shawshank Redemption, Darabont returned to King's work with The Green Mile, crafting another prison-set epic—but this time with a supernatural twist.The Taste Buds explore how Darabont translates King's sprawling narrative into a cohesive film, balancing intimate performances with grand themes of morality, fate, and grace. The episode also compares both adaptations, highlighting what makes The Green Mile uniquely powerful.Related Links:Stephen King's Official SiteIMDb: The Green MileCoffey and Race: A Complicated Legacy in The Green MileJohn Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan) is one of the most memorable characters in 1990s cinema, but also one of its most debated. This episode takes a close look at the racial dynamics of the film, unpacking the “magical Negro” trope and its implications.The panel wrestles with the emotional potency of Coffey's story, the film's approach to race and injustice, and how it reflects the myth-making tendencies of Hollywood storytelling, especially when viewed through a modern lens.The Power of Love in The Green MileAt its core, The Green Mile is a film about love. Not romantic love, but love expressed through compassion, understanding, and humanity. The Taste Buds reflect on the different relationships in the film—Paul Edgecomb's (Tom Hanks) empathy for Coffey, the bonds between the prison guards, and even Coffey's tenderness toward the mouse, Mr. Jingles.The discussion highlights how the film uses moments of grace to balance its darker themes and why The Green Mile remains a tearjerker that earns every emotional beat.Bonus Segment: Being John MalkovichAs a special treat for listeners, the episode includes a bonus segment where the Taste Buds dive into another 1999 classic: Being John Malkovich. They explore the film's surreal originality, its commentary on identity and celebrity, and how it stands as one of the boldest cinematic experiments of the year. It's a wild ride that perfectly complements the emotional gravity of The Green Mile.Guest Panelist Spotlight: Erik from Cradle 2 the GraveJoining the Taste Buds for this episode is special guest Erik, host of the Cradle 2 the Grave podcast. With his signature insight and deep love for ‘90s cinema, Erik brings fresh perspectives to the discussion, particularly on the cultural legacy of The Green Mile. His dynamic presence adds a new flavor to the panel as they dig deep into themes of justice, faith, and film craft.

Click here to try it out!Welcome back to Bad Dads Film Review!This episode, we're stepping into the eerie and unsettling world of The Mist (2007), a harrowing adaptation of Stephen King's novella directed by Frank Darabont. Known for adapting King's works with finesse (The Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile), Darabont delivers a tense, claustrophobic horror film that dives deep into human nature when fear and desperation take hold.Setting the Scene: Monsters in the MistThe story begins in the small town of Bridgton, Maine, where a violent storm causes a power outage. Artist David Drayton (Thomas Jane) and his young son Billy (Nathan Gamble) venture into town for supplies, along with their neighbour Brent Norton (Andre Braugher). As a mysterious mist rolls in, trapping them and other townspeople in a supermarket, it becomes clear that terrifying, deadly creatures lurk in the fog.But the true horror emerges not from the creatures outside but from the growing paranoia, fear, and fanaticism inside the store. The group splinters as Mrs. Carmody (Marcia Gay Harden), a religious zealot, gains followers by declaring the mist an act of divine retribution. Tensions rise, and survival becomes as much about navigating human threats as it is about avoiding the nightmarish creatures.Why It Stands OutPsychological Horror Over Monsters: The Mist isn't just about creepy creatures—it's a study of how fear can turn people against each other. The tension is unrelenting, and the real danger becomes the people succumbing to fear and fanaticism.That Ending: The gut-wrenching, bleak finale remains one of the most divisive and shocking in horror film history. Deviating from King's original ending, Darabont delivers a twist so nihilistic it haunts viewers long after the credits roll.Powerful Performances: Thomas Jane shines as a desperate father trying to protect his son, while Marcia Gay Harden's Mrs. Carmody is an unsettling portrayal of religious extremism. The supporting cast, including Toby Jones and William Sadler, bring depth and authenticity to their roles.Atmosphere and Tension: The supermarket setting is a perfect microcosm of societal collapse. Claustrophobic, tense, and rife with dread, the film captures the mounting hysteria and desperation.A Dad's TakeThe Mist is a great watch for horror fans, but it's not just about monsters. It's a disturbing exploration of human nature, moral dilemmas, and the choices we make when all hope seems lost. It's a reminder that sometimes, the scariest monsters are the ones inside us.Final ThoughtsFrank Darabont's The Mist is a horror film that lingers long after viewing. It's terrifying, tragic, and thought-provoking, delivering a uniquely unsettling experience. For dads who appreciate psychological horror and impactful storytelling, it's a must-watch—just don't expect a happy ending.So, join us as we venture into the mist, dissecting the film's themes, unforgettable moments, and that notorious ending. It's Bad Dads Film Review at its darkest!

On Episode 123 of The Film ‘89 Podcast, Steve, Skye and returning co-hosts, Leighton Winstone and filmmaker Kyle Reardon are covering another all-time classic, The Shawshank Redemption, a film that, according to the long-running IMDB Top 250, is the greatest film of all time. A big screen adaptation of the Stephen King Novella and directed by Frank Darabont, The Shawshank Redemption was released 30 years ago and was met with muted critical and commercial success and no wins despite 7 Academy Award nominations. But upon it's release on home video, it became a huge success and in the years since has become a perennial favourite and a film cited by many as one of the greatest films ever made. The guys chart the making of the The Shawshank Redemption , the changes that Darabont made from King's book and give their usual in-depth analysis of this remarkable film for its 30th anniversary.

"The Shawshank Redemption," directed by Frank Darabont and released in 1994, is a cinematic masterpiece that has stood the test of time. Based on Stephen King's novella "Rita Hayworth and Shawshank Redemption," the film navigates the life of Andy Dufresne (Tim Robbins), wrongfully convicted for the murder of his wife and her lover."The Shawshank Redemption" excels in storytelling, weaving a poignant tale of hope, friendship, and redemption. Andy's journey, marked by resilience and intelligence, is a compelling narrative backbone. The film's pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to immerse themselves in the Shawshank State Penitentiary's oppressive environment. Darabont's screenplay, adapted from King's novella, is a fine example of narrative adaptation, retaining the source material's essence while adding cinematic depth.The storytelling is enhanced by the narration of Ellis "Red" Redding (Morgan Freeman), whose perspective provides depth and emotional resonance. The narrative elegantly explores themes of institutionalization, corruption, and the human spirit's indomitability. The plot's twists, particularly Andy's meticulously planned escape, are executed with precision, leaving a lasting impact.Tim Robbins delivers a nuanced performance as Andy, capturing his stoicism, intelligence, and hidden emotional turmoil. Andy's transformation from a despairing prisoner to a symbol of hope is portrayed with subtlety and depth. Robbins' chemistry with Morgan Freeman, who plays Red, is a highlight. Freeman's portrayal of Red — a man hardened by the realities of prison life yet profoundly impacted by Andy's friendship — is exceptional. His voiceover adds a lyrical quality to the film, enhancing its storytelling.The supporting cast, including Bob Gunton as Warden Norton and Clancy Brown as Captain Hadley, provide formidable antagonistic forces, embodying the corrupting influence of the prison system. Their performances add layers to the film's exploration of power and moral decay.The film's exploration of hope as an unassailable human spirit's element is its most powerful theme. Andy's unwavering hope, despite the injustices he faces, inspires not only his fellow inmates but also the audience. The film also delves into the concept of freedom — both physical and psychological. It portrays how institutionalisation can erode individual identity, a theme poignantly captured in Brooks Hatlen's (James Whitmore) storyline.Roger Deakins' cinematography is stellar, capturing the bleakness of prison life juxtaposed with moments of transcendent beauty, like the iconic rooftop beer scene. The film's score, composed by Thomas Newman, is hauntingly beautiful, adding emotional depth to the narrative. The production design meticulously recreates the prison setting, contributing to the film's immersive experience."The Shawshank Redemption" is not just a film about a prison break; it is a profound exploration of the human condition. Its enduring appeal lies in its universal themes of hope, friendship, and the pursuit of freedom. Darabont's direction, coupled with outstanding performances and technical artistry, cements this film as a timeless classic. It resonates deeply with audiences, reminding us of the power of hope and the resilience of the human spirit.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcast If you are looking to start a podcast and want a host or get guests to pipe in remotely, look no further than Riverside.fmClick the link below https://riverside.fm/?utm_campaign=campaign_1&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=rewardful&via=matthew

For our fourth and final Slasher Summer episode this season, Viddy Well Film Blog's Aaron Haughton returns once more to break down our last “Remake That Rocks”: Chuck Russell's funhouse sci-fi gross-out The Blob. Russell's late-80s remake of 1958's “The Blob” proves the old adage: if it ain't broke, don't fix it. Acting as a sort of counter-programming to the onslaught of teen slashers and franchise horror movie villains popular during the time period, “The Blob” is content just to scare the hell out of you with a gooey monster and a ridiculously fun premise. It's time to Pop That on 1988's The Blob.

The third major theatrical Stephen King adaption by Frank Darabont (who did pretty well with Shawshank and Green Mile) doesn't take place in a prison, but it's still about a bunch of people who are trapped and any attempt to escape could be fatal!  A strange mist rolls into town, and lurking within it are all sorts of icky monsters!  Ordinary folks hiding in a supermarket can't deal with the horror (or each other) for very long and soon many of them are on their way to express check-out!  King's short story was really scary, despite its piss-poor ending.  Darabont fixes that here, and drops a whopper of a conclusion on us.  Any first-time viewers are in for a shock, so if you "mist" this movie, watch it now!  And by the way, it's not the same as The Fog.  That's harder to see through.  But awesome to watch!  

Stephen King says Frank Darabont's adaptation of this novella is one of his favorites out of the many films made from his work, and for good reason: it's spectacular! In episode 269, Luke & James discuss the warden as the devil theory, which iconic shot Roger Deakins regrets, the differences between Stanley Kubrick and Darabont forcing so many takes, what people say to Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman everywhere they go, and how sometimes going for broad appeal is the right choice.

Frank Darabont had been an avid reader of Stephen King novels for quite some time when he came across the 1980 novella called “The Mist” as part of the “Dark Forces” anthology. Darabont immediately fell in love with the story and decided to adapt King's book into a film that would become his directorial debut. What ultimately happened was Darabont made another King novella into a film with “The Shawshank Redemption” followed by yet another story called “The Green Mile.” Finally in 2004, Darabont began working on a screenplay adaptation of “The Mist” that he intended to turn into a film after inking an overall deal with Paramount Pictures. Darabont's finished script actually altered the ending of King's story into something different after a mysterious mist invades a small town, pitting neighbor against neighbor in a harrowing battle for survival.In the latest episode of Rewind of the Living Dead, we're going to grab a can of peas and make sure the revolver is loaded as we review the 2007 film “The Mist”….

ABOUT THE ROYALThe Royal tells the story of iconic former Kansas City Royal slugger Willie Mays Aikens (Amin Joseph), whose promising career quickly turned disastrous because of drug addiction. Aikens, to this day a World Series home run record holder, was entrapped by tricky cops and ultimately sentenced to the longest prison sentence ever given to a professional athlete in a drug case. THE ROYAL is an intimate portrait of a man taking the hard circumstances of his life and turning them around against all odds, as he seeks redemption with his estranged family and friends (including George Brett), with baseball, and ultimately with himself upon his release from prison.It stars Amin Joseph (Snowfall), Andrea Navedo (Jane The Virgin), Michael Beach (If Beale Street Could Talk), Nic Bishop (Truth Be Told), and Dallas Young (Cobra Kai).

He resides in Los Angeles.

In the spirit of the movie we are reviewing I thought it would be humorous to make the show notes excessively long so that it would take you three hours to read them but it turns out that a) no one reads the show notes anyway and b) that would take me an extremely long time so instead you can recreate that experience by simply looping over these next sections a few thousand times.  Frank Darabont had already directed the Stephen King adaptation THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, initially a box office disappointment which at some point was apparently unanimously declared a modern classic, before he worked on bringing another of the Maine-born authors stories to the screen with 1999's THE GREEN MILE. Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks) is a Warden Supervisor at Cold Mountain Penitentiary's Death Row, given the movies titular nickname because of the green linoleum floor which leads from the doomed prisoners cells to the electric chair. Assisted by a team including David Morse's powerful but respectful Brutus, Barry Pepper's youthful Dean and Jeffrey DeMunn's humane Harry, his aim is to provide condemned men with dignity in their last days, an endeavour complicated by the sadistic Percy (Doug Hutchison), foisted upon him by virtue of the state governor's nepotism. When the physically imposing but gentle and childlike John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan),  sentenced to death after being convicted of the rape and murder of two young girls, joins the rest of the inmates on Death Row, inexplicable events will bind both prisoners and guards for the rest of their lives. It's fair to say that Darabont takes his time breathing life into King's characters on screen; the movie has a whopping 189 minute run time and focuses heavily on drama and relationship building before introducing the supernatural elements to the story. Thankfully it is a superb array of actors that he has assembled, with the late Duncan giving perhaps a career best performance (Kingpin aside), a truly unforgettable villain in Hutchison's Percy and a talented ensemble cast featuring the likes of Bonnie Hunt, James Cromwell, Sam Rockwell and mouse-fondler Michael Jeter. I didn't join the rest of the Dads for this review so I have no idea what they are going to say. I imagine at least one of us finds this maudlin, over-wrought and just too long. If I had been there, I might have talked about the troubling 'magical negro' aspect to the story (quoting Spike Lee there my friends, don't judge me) so consider yourself lucky you were spared that. Most of all I'm wondering just how long they will spend talking about the part where Michael Clarke Duncan touches Tom Hanks's penis. I reckon some of the guys could do 3 hours on that alone.

The Philosophy in Film podcast returns to discuss Frank Darabont's  beloved adaptation of "Shawshank Redemption". This lengthy episode is broken up into a somewhat long-winded Producers' Notes (8:27), followed by a brief synopsis (25:15), the Philosopher's Corner segment (40:32) and finally, a round table discussion of the film (51:23) where we discuss the philosophical and non-philosophical aspects of the movie that caught our attention.

On this episode, Will Root joins the show as we get busy livin or get busy dyin and watch some tricks performed by Mr. Jingles. You could call it the Frank Darabont episode, the prison episode, the Stephen King adaptation episode or what have you, but today we will be talking about The Shawshank Redemption and The Green Mile. But before we get into the two classics, we talk about Will Smith's actions at the Oscars, the awards show overall, a new deleted scene from The Batman and a trailer for A24's latest thriller, Men.

Ian and Cole execute one of their finest "Page2Screen" shows with a look at The Green MIle!Stephen King's serialized 1996 novel follows the guards in a Depression-era southern prison who welcome two new guests on death row. One is a convicted murderer with magical powers; the other is a highly intelligent mouse who takes a...shining to one of the inmates.Despite a sprinkling of the supernatural, The Green MIle finds King returning to the rich well of insightful male-bonding storytelling that he exhibited in "The Body" (which was adapted into the film Stand By Me) and "Rita Hayworth and the Shawshank Redemption" (shortened to simply The Shawshank Redemption for the big screen).In this detailed discussion, the guys look at Frank Darabont's film adaptation as a moving yet puzzling take on the book. From the excising of a poignant bookend device, to the stripping of every female character's agency/poignancy, and an unforced error in fully realizing King's grand thesis of man's relationship to the divine--there's a lot to talk about (including an especially effective addition to the story on Darabont's part)!

We are staying in the '80s this week as we take a look at another horror remake for the 2021 Halloween Spooktacular! This time, we review the Frank Darabont-penned remake of The Blob. Ian is shocked to find out Darabont wrote this film six years before he would write and direct The Shawshank Redemption. Despite that pedigree, Ian found this one to be a little lacking in some areas. Justin, on the other hand, loves this film for its incredible practical effects and its absolute craziness when compared to the 1958 original. Join us as we take a look at one of the most overlooked horror remakes!

Frank Darabont wanted to adapt Stephen King’s novella “The Mist” as his directorial debut, but obviously that didn’t happen. It took him 13 years and three feature films, not to mention all the TV writing he was involved in, before he’d finally get around to adapting the story and making the film. What’s great about it is that he went dark with the story and took the original story even further than King took it. It worked for some people but not that well for others who found it far too bleak. Still, it’s found its audience and is generally considered one of the strongest horror adaptations of Kings’ work. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we wrap up our Stephen King à la Darabont series, with his 2007 film The Mist. We talk about the bleak nature of the story and how well it works for us in context of what King was doing with it. We look at the color version versus the director’s preferred black-and-white version and why we both prefer the black-and-white as well. We chat about the performances, notably Thomas Jane and Marcia Gay Harden (not to mention all the Darabont regulars) and why they work so well in their respective roles. We discuss the Lord of the Flies aspect to the humans in the story and why it fits so perfectly in this world. We chat about the creatures and why we find them so perfectly terrifying. We touch on the music and why the haunting voice of Lisa Gerrard works so well in context of this story. We debate the ending and why it works so well for us while certainly not as well for others – and how it can be interpreted in different ways. And if you’re tuning in to hear us talk about how cool it is that Darabont is such a fan of Drew Struzan’s poster art that he builds it into his lead character’s occupation, you’ll be disappointed. We completely forget to bring it up! So we’ll just mention it here. It’s a fantastically freaky film and we both love it. We had a great time talking about it on the show this week, so check it out then tune in. The Next Reel – when the movie ends, our conversation begins!

Cinema icon Frank Darabont is this week's special guest on the Post Mortem slab! The key figure in adapting Stephen King's 'THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION', 'THE GREEN MILE' and 'THE MIST' for the silver screen, Darabont has had a career filled with monumental achievements. He discusses his introduction to the medium, the highs and lows of his success and much more! He's also joined by screenplay-to-publication editor for 'THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION' and 'THE GREEN MILE', Tyson Blue. POST MORTEM WITH MICK GARRIS NICE GUY PRODUCTIONS 2021

When Stephen King published “The Green Mile,” it was quite a novelty as he chose to release it in six serialized segments, each releasing a month apart. It was inevitable that it would get adapted as a film, as so many other of King's works, but perhaps because of its popularity, its subject matter, and because of Frank Darabont's connection to King after making The Shawshank Redemption, it came as no surprise that Darabont was adapting and directing it as his next film. Join us – Pete Wright and Andy Nelson – as we talk about the next film in our Stephen King à la Darabont series, his 1999 film adaptation The Green Mile. We talk about the episodic nature the film has, perhaps because of its original serialized format, and how that affects our viewing of it. We look at the flashback structure with Old Paul in the nursing home at the start and finish and debate if it helps or hurts the film. We also talk about the mean orderly in the nursing home in the novel and why perhaps the film would've worked better if that character was kept. We discuss the magical negro nature of the film and why it can be harmful to the interpretations of the film today. We look at all of the performances but notably Michael Clarke Duncan and how well he works as John Coffey. We touch on the cinematography, production design, music, and editing and why they all work well in this long story. And we ponder what it's saying about death sentences, if anything. It's a good film, despite the problems it has with the magical negro element, but doesn't approach the level of Shawshank for us. Still, it's worth watching, so check it out then tune in.

Tom & Tony Bancroft from The Bancroft Brothers Animation Podcast join us to kick off our Stephen King à la Darabont series! Why has this film stood the test of time as well as it has? How much did Darabont change from the original source material? And how awkward is it to picture any of the other actors considered for the role after seeing the brilliance of Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman? It's one of our favorites, so tune in to this week's show to get answers to these questions and more!

It's one of our favorites, so tune in to this week's show to get answers to these questions and more!

Frank Darabont may not have been Stephen King’s first Dollar Baby, but he certainly was one of the earliest. And according to King himself, Darabont’s short film The Woman in the Room is his favorite of the bunch. The story Darabont really wanted to adapt of King’s, however, was “Rita Hayworth & Shawshank Redemption.” It wouldn’t be until much later in his career, after he’d already established himself as a screenwriter of horror properties, that he’d be able to return to King and lock in the rights. Join us – Andy Nelson and Pete Wright – as we kick off our Stephen King à la Darabont series – with guests Tom & Tony Bancroft from the Bancroft Brothers Animation Podcast – to talk about his 1994 film The Shawshank Redemption. We talk about our first experiences with the film and why it’s stuck with us over time. We chat about Tim Robbins and Morgan Freeman and all the other potentials that could have played those parts. We look at the nature of Robbins’ character Andy Dufresne and how he embodies the type of protagonist that doesn’t necessarily follow his own character arc but changes those around him over the course of the film. We also argue how he still does have some strong moments of change himself, and how often the film is used as a parable in Christian circles. We touch on the greatness of the cinematography and music. And we marvel that the film didn’t get much award or box office love, considering how much we all love it. It’s a marvelous film and a great way to kick off this series. We have a great time talking about it with Tom and Tony, so check it out then tune in!

The Total Tutor Neil Haley will interview Amin Joseph of Baywatch. Amin Joseph's star is on the rise and he is continuing to make his mark in Hollywood. He will be seen on the big screen in Paramount's highly anticipated blockbuster film reboot of BAYWATCH with Dwayne Johnson, Zac Efron and Priyanka Chopra this spring. He will immediately follow this with a major role in FX's upcoming television series SNOWFALL. The hour-long drama, executive produced by John Singleton, is set in Los Angeles in the 1980s and covers the early days of the crack-cocaine epidemic. The show is slated for a summer 2017 premiere. He is also shooting a role in Johnny Depp's LABYRINTH, a thriller about the investigation of the murders of Tupac Shakur and The Notorious BIG. Joseph has been featured in many major films including THE EXPENDABLES and HOMEFRONT, both Lionsgate action hits written by Sylvester Stallone; G.I. JOE: RETALIATION with Bruce Willis and Dwayne Johnson; the film festival darling DOPE, which premiered at the Sundance Film Festival in competition and went on to screen at the Cannes Film Festival and the Deauville American Film Festival in 2015; THE GAMBLER with Mark Wahlberg; and Frank Darabont's 2007 horror film, and THE MIST, based on the story by Stephen King, among many others. In 2004, he made his small screen debut in the action drama RAGE AND DISCIPLINE and his career took off from there, with over five dozen film and television credits in just twelve years. He reunited with Darabont for both FX's hit series THE SHIELD as well as a recurring role on TNT's L.A. NOIR. He also starred in two Cinemax series, ZANE'S SEX CHRONICLES and ZANE'S THE JUMP OFF, both written by New York Times bestselling author Zane.         

The crack of Indy's whip returned to screens in 2008, followed by a tidal wave of opinion, frustration and castration. Now the serial wheels are spinning again - emphasis on spin - and talk of a new Indiana Jones adventure has been discussed. Will Steven Spielberg use this opportunity to once again apologize for his last Indy endeavor or has the mold been set for the next generation of the Family Jones to continue in the same stride? John and Andy open a bottle and pour the shots, to once again unravel the past, present and future of Hollywoods favorite archaeologist.
