The Green Mile, a movie based on an exceptional serial novel by Stephen King, centers around the character of John Coffey.  The gigantic Coffey is a wrongfully accused death row inmate who possesses amazing healing powers.  Those powers unfortunately come at the cost of his own health.  He seeks to use those very abilities to aid those who have imprisoned him, seeing the good in them whether they want to see it in him or not.  Coffey is a character who is as selfless as he is sympathetic, navigating a story that is far more dark than it is uplifting.   Ultimately The Green Mile is a story about forgiving those who seek to even do you the greatest of harm, even when it means paying for it when all that you have.
