Paul Edgecomb is the head of the block guards during the 1930s at the Cold Mountain Correctional Facility. Through his many years of watching men live and die, Paul's faith and sanity has deteriorated. He is assigned to watch over John Coffey, a giant man convicted of murdering two little girls. But John acts more like a child than a cold-hearted murderer. Edgecomb and other guards find themselves in a moral dilemma when they witness John accomplish healing miracles.

The third Diamond Luxe edition sent to us for review by Warner Home Video is The Green Mile. For an introduction to the Diamond Luxe series, please see the review of the Gremlins Diamond Luxe edition. As with Gremlins, Disc 1 of The Green Mile Diamond Luxe edition is identical to the disc previously released by WHV in 2009 in a DigiBook edition and reviewed here. The file dates on the disc read "2009". For the Diamond Luxe release, WHV has added a second disc with a significantly expanded version of the documentary included on Disc 1 entitled Walking the Mile: The Making of The Green Mile. It is discussed below under "Special Features and Extras". As with Gremlins, the scores for feature, audio and video have been copied from the 2009 review.
Please refer to the 2009 review.
Please refer to the 2009 review.
Please refer to the 2009 review for a list of the extras contained on Disc 1. The new extra on Disc 2 is as follows:
This particular Diamond Luxe edition isn't as difficult a choice as the others I have reviewed. Any fan of The Green Mile will want to give this release serious consideration, because the expanded version of Walking the Mile provides the kind of backstage experience that goes much deeper than a standard EPK. This is the rare new edition that is worth the double-dip. For those who don't already own The Green Mile, this is the version to get.
