This film makes me weep

there were many emotional scenes in that movie that I found much more horrific, sad, even frightening, than watching traditional horror, suspense or drama flicks.
I get weepy throughout many parts of the film.
The film uses the horrors of real life to make its impact. Mix that with a story of a beautiful soul who is about love and healing in its finest form and it manages to pack one heck of a wallop.
This is a rare breed of film that did everything right.

I read the book after seeing the film and the it captures the essence of the novel beautifully.
The 188mins fly by and every scene is interesting and adds something to the flow of the story.

The fact that John Coffey would rather die than endure the horrors of the world anymore really is depressing.

Coffey was too pure for this world and the positive is, he was set free from his own pain and suffering in a hateful world.
Regarding his circumstance, how could it possibly be proven that he was innocent, especially considering the supernatural healing power surrounding him? The guy was doomed to die and there was no way out of it. He at least got some resolution owed to him regarding Wild Bill and Percy.

I've never seen it because I was once sat behind two girls on the bus and one of them had just watched it and was telling her friend all about it and it sounded so sad and awful I could never bring myself to watch

Oh, you must view it at least once. Like Lilith said, she probably wouldn't watch it again due to its high end emotional impact, but it sure is one complete and whole experience as a film. I don't have issue watching it though.
It is currently streaming on Netflix if you subscribe.

But I’m too much of a wuss to watch it
