Ok the topic for this week is either on The Green Mile or Capital punishment.
We've watched the movie The Green Mile for around 5 periods during english. For me, I liked some parts and feel sorry in the others. In the movie, they used The Electric Chair,"Old Sparky" as the way of Capital punishment. It was the usage of electricity to kill a person. Electricity would enter rapidly into your body through a wet sponge on your head, shocking you and causing some pain.
At first i thought that the first execution part was quite funny due to the lack of knowledge towards the first prisoner. But as the movie continued, it showed us more and more about the other prisoners and their character.
During the second execution,which was Del's, I felt really sorry for him as he was actually a really nice guy,training Mr Jingles to be a Circus Mouse and becoming friends with John Coffey,and had truly repented for what he had done. But during the execution, Percy,the most disliked officer, purposely did not wet the sponge. When electricity was summoned into Del's body, it caused Del to feel intense pain as electricity passes through the body slower. And because of this, Del was cooked alive causing a pungent smell to fill the room "which would last for more than 5 years". This execution made me hate Percy even more than ever. It also made me realised how cruel Capital punishment really was.
By the next John Coffey's execution, I really felt like protesting against it not because it was not only cruel but because they were killing an innocent man who had sved and tried to save many peoples lives.
After the movie, I really hated Capital punishment. Must we take away other peoples lives because a lfe was taken away?! For me, I don't think so. We do not have the right to take away a persons life as God was the creator of Man and he is the only one who can take away the lives from us. When someone has sinned, he will have to face Judgement Day with fear if he had not repented and that will be the worst punishment.
