Frank Darabont

In the bowels of a 1935 Louisiana prison, home to women awaiting execution, one man’s story will upend everything. Paul Edgecomb, a veteran guard, comes into contact with John Coffey, a gentle giant accused of a terrible crime. But John isn’t one of them — he has a gift so extraordinary it’s inexplicable. As Paul discovers the truth about John, the miraculous clashes with the tragic, and he is forced to grapple with the tenuous line between justice and injustice, humanity and cruelty. This is a suspenseful story of redemption, self-sacrifice and the indelible ties formed within the unlikeliest of circumstances.
