Green Mile

Here is the brief plot of the beginning of this complex film that consists of drama, mystery and crime:

Paul Edgecomb (Tom Hanks) walked the mile with a variety of cons. He had never encountered someone like John Coffey (Michael Clarke Duncan), a massive black man convicted of brutally killing a pair of young sisters. Coffey had the size and strength to kill anyone, but not the demeanor. Beyond his simple, naive nature and a deathly fear of the dark, Coffey seemed to possess a prodigious, supernatural gift. Paul began to question whether Coffey was truly guilty of murdering the two girls.

Coffey :
In a way, Coffey is a form of god and has been bestowed upon earth as a sacrificial lesson to the humans to witness his existence.

Paul: After having to unwillingly charge Coffey with murder and rape of two girls (although he wasn’t guilty), Paul is cursed.

Wow! The Green Mile is such a great movie.

Minnesota Mild Off

It's the opposite of a Mexican Stand Off. In a Minnesota Mild Off, participants come to an impasse become either no one has strong feelings or they're unwilling to voice them.

"Hey guys, what should we get for dinner tonight?"
"I'm easy"
"I had pizza yesterday, so maybe not that?"
"Oh, I ate earlier so I'll just have something small. You guys choose."

And so we came to a Minnesota Mild Off on the notoriously difficult topic of what food should we eat.
