I prefer The Green Mile novella series over the Shawshank redemption novella...I actually subscribed to The Green Mile books (originally released as a short novella every month)...
I also liked The Green Mile movie better...Although shawshank is a classic and one of my favorites...
well, to be honest , I think I never shawshank redempton,,, And I got a big collection of movies, I think i'am going to ' buy ' it now,
I saw the green mile, 4 times, cryd 3 times...
shawshank redemption but there pretty close. I choose SR because as stated above it couldnt have been done any better and I can also watch the movie from time to time and not get bored of it.
