The Green Mile is Stephen King's magnum opus the more I think about it, I'm not sure how I feel about Stephen King as an author yeah, his stories can be captivating... but they're also really, really cheesy from demonic clowns to undead cats to groovy Anti-Christs, it's kinda hard to take his work seriously and then there are the adaptations like this one which really only reinforces the cheesiness ...

the more I think about it, I'm not sure how I feel about Stephen King as an authorWhat I hear is that he's a commercial author who writes to sell, which is why he has so many books he keeps publishing and churning out, while someone else like say George rr Martin writes as more of a hobby that unexpectedly took off, which is why he's been so slow to write and complete a work. ...

What I don't understand, is why is he being punished so much when Coffey literally said he wanted to die? Wasn't there a whole scene where Paul's wife tells Paul to ask Coffey himself what he wants, then Coffey states that he doesn't want to live in this world because of all the evil in it or something along the lines of that?
