Actually the movie follows the book very, very closely. Tigr Send a noteboard - 28/09/2009 07:19:54 PM
I am a huge King fan and I love everything that Frank Darabont has done with his books (Shawshank Redemption, Green Mile, The Mist). I've read the book a few times and seen the movie several times, the differences are minimal though admittedly you get a better feel for the characters, especially John Coffey, in the book.

I will say this though, Michael Clarke Duncan was the most well casted actor in that film. He was perfect in that role.
