The Green Mile

2:49:01

As for me. . .

2:49:04

. . .John had to give me
a part of himself. . .

2:49:06

. . .a gift, the way he saw it. . .

2:49:09

. . .so that I could see for myself
what Wild Bill had done.

2:49:14

When John did that. . .

2:49:18

. . .when he took my hand. . .

2:49:21

. . .a part of the power
that worked through him. . .

2:49:26

. . .spilled into me.

2:49:28

He. . .what?

2:49:30

He infected you with life?

2:49:35

It's as good a word as any.

2:49:39

He infected us both,
didn't he, Mr. Jingles?

2:49:42

With life.

2:49:47

I'm 1 08 years old, Elaine.

2:49:50

I was 44 the year that John Coffey
walked the Green Mile.

2:49:57

You mustn't blame John.
He couldn't help what happened.

2:50:01

He was just a force of nature.

2:50:06

I've lived to see
some amazing things, Ellie.

2:50:11

Another century come to pass.

2:50:16

But I've had to see my friends and
loved ones die off through the years.

2:50:21

Hal and Melinda. . .

2:50:23

. . .Brutus Howell. . .

2:50:25

. . .my wife, my boy.

2:50:30

And you, Elaine.

2:50:33

You'll die too.

2:50:36

And my curse is knowing
that I'll be there to see it.

2:50:42

It's my atonement, you see.

2:50:45

It's my punishment. . .

2:50:47

...for letting John Coffey
ride the lightning.

2:50:51

For killing a miracle of God.

2:50:55

Almighty, everlasting God...

2:50:58

. . .the source of all being and life.
