This is my second definition of "Chevaliers de Sangreal (Blutritter)" of "The Da Vinci Code Soundtrack". It is also a birthday present for Hans Zimmer......

I hope you'll enjoy it....

The blood knights in this video are the executioners of the defendant "John Coffey (the same initials as Jesus Christ)"

The definition of Green Mile in this movie was the way on a green floor to the execution room (electric chair)......

That means: I DO NOT LIKE CAPITAL PUNISHMENT!

I like this video especially, because there is the same actor as in "The Da Vinci Code" - movie (I mean the great actor Tom Hanks = Paul Edgecomb).

Paul Edgecombe
Paul Edgecombe (named according to his uncle; debate in the film, by the way, written: Edgecomb) is the attendant / hangman and first-person narrator in Kings Roman "The Green Mile". He reports in the review about the events of 1932, when John Coffey was sentenced to death and came to Cold Mountain.

Edgecombe hasn't got any problem with his occupation as a hangman in exception of the case of John Coffey. He thinks firmly, that murderers come into the hell; he still is persuaded of the fact that the capital punishment is no solution, because only covers are executed, from which the demon, which controlled them once long ago, has disappeared.

He develops a personal relation to many prisoners and looks so well it goes around them. His job is, to bring the executions humane and for the witnesses adequate above the stage.

John Coffey cures his violent bubble infection, Edgecombe begins the fight for Coffeys life. When he has to execute him, a world breaks for him and he immediately gives notice.

german:
Paul Edgecombe (benannt nach seinem Onkel; im Film übrigens Edgecomb geschrieben) ist der Wärter / Henker und Ich-Erzähler in Kings Roman "The Green Mile". Er berichtet im Rückblick von den Ereignissen des Jahres 1932, als John Coffey zum Tode verurteilt wurde und nach Cold Mountain kam.

Edgecombe hat mit seinem Beruf als Henker, mit Ausnahme des Falles von John Coffey, kein Problem. Er glaubt fest, dass Mörder in die Hölle kommen werden; dennoch ist er davon überzeugt, dass die Todesstrafe keine Lösung ist, da nur noch Hüllen hingerichtet werden, aus denen der Dämon, der sie einst beherrschte, längst verschwunden ist.

Er entwickelt zu vielen Häftlingen ein persönliches Verhältnis und kümmert sich so gut es geht um sie. Sein Job ist es, die Hinrichtungen menschenwürdig und für die Zeugen befriedigend über die Bühne zu bringen.

John Coffey heilt seine heftige Blaseninfektion, woraufhin Edgecombe beginnt, um Coffeys Leben zu kämpfen. Als er ihn hinrichten muss, zerbricht für ihn eine Welt und er kündigt umgehend.

  • @tlv156 It's been a while since I saw it :P

  • @Mattashi His name was Del, the mouses name was Mr. Jingles and he was actually gray. lol.

  • @cheyanne2010 was the same movie but with the other guy, I forgot his name but he had a white mouse as friend.

  • @cheyanne2010 that was percy who did that to dale this is john and percy was sent to a mental hospital before this execution

  • best movie of all time, im a strong man and even i shed a tear when he died

  • I'm confused. I swear that someone who didn't like him was supposed to wet the sponge, but skipped it and just set it on his head dry making the execution a lot more painful for him. Or was that from another movie? lol

  • ruend it

  • no other track would fit better...

  • I think that the character who has to be executed is a Christ Figure b/c he heals people and committed no crimes, although he is falsely accused.

  • Yeah, this is pretty much the music that plays in my head during this scene.
