    The Green Mile.

    It never fails to bring me to tears.

    One of the greatest movies of all time for me and Tom Hanks at his finest.

    The performance of Michael Clarke Duncan as John Coffey is one of my favourite movie characters of all time, so sad that he passed away at just 55 which made his performance even more poignant for me.

    I find it impossible to hold back my emotions with this classic and wondered if any films had the same effect on anyone else.

    A recent movie with Sam Worthington called The Shack also does r the same to me.

    An all time favourite of mine too, Mick.

    M C Duncan, huge and massive in many aspects.

    Another favourite with Tom Hanks is, of course, Forrest Gump.

    Cracking filum Mick as are (in my opinion) Shawshank Redemption, Sleepers and Legends of the Fall among others.

    All interesting stories with characters you can identify with and others whom you can despise from the pit of your stomach.

    Shawshank is so obviously one of the best movies of all time I didn’t even think to waste my time listing it 68😎🤣

    Morgan Freeman at his very peak playing the part so beautifully understated.

    Emotional as well, especially the beach scene at the end.
