So sorry!
Had no idea that they hadn't shown it in Europe yet. One of the ladies from here sent me an email and told me. I didn't mean to spoil it for anybody.
Well, for those of you that like it, it is an excellent episode. I can't believe that Europe doesn't get to watch it until later. When is it coming on in your country?

The Green Mile is a story told in "flashback" by an elderly Paul Edgecomb in a nursing home. He tells a friend about the summer of 1935 when he was a prison guard in charge of death row inmates. His domain was called "The Green Mile" because the linoleum floor was green. The star of the cellblock was "Old Sparky", the electric chair, sitting peacefully, waiting for his next victim.
One day, a new inmate arrives. He is seven-foot-tall John Coffey, a black man convicted of raping and killing two young white girls. Coffey immediately shows himself to be a "gentle giant", keeping to himself and being moved to tears on occasion. Soon enough, Coffey reveals his extraordinary healing powers by healing Paul Edgecomb's urinary infection and bringing a mouse back from the dead.
At the same time, Percy Wetmore, a vicious, sadistic guard who takes pleasure in intimidating and injuring inmates, exasperates everyone else in the cellblock. However, he "knows people in high places," preventing Paul or anybody else from doing anything significant to curb his deviant behavior. What Percy wants is to be put "up front" for (i.e., in charge of) an execution; then, he promises, he will transfer himself to another government job and Paul will never hear from him again.

Best and most interesting movie I've watched in a long time...
unfortunately it's based on true events.
Too late for so many
but all the lives saved because of the persistence of one man
Discussing the movie earlier with Mr Know it all
according to him much is also going on in Brazil today concerning American toxic waste.
In whom can we trust these days, certainly not the big boys we should ...
On another blog someone used the expression
" like toads in boiling water"
the lady wasn't too far wrong with what she said.
Anyways, DARK WATERS is an eye opener and definitely worth a watch
stock up on the popcorn though as it is longer than your average movie
Which Hollywood and Bollywood movies would you consider as the best to have come out or watched in the year 2017?

There seems to be a new trend developing on the CS blogs. At first I thought the word Vlog was a type error as the “v” and “b” are next to each other on the keyboard, but no, the word vlog refers to a video blog.
Of course, videos are not new on CS, there is a shed load of them posted in the “Video” section. What is interesting however, is that members are now posting videos of themselves on the blogs and even going as far as co-operating with other members in the making of.
I am asking myself whether this is a passing phase or a trend here to stay. I see the value of these types of videos in other applications such as a profile addition, however, as far as the blogs are concerned, I am not convinced they are a good idea, that said, for those that do post vlogs, I look forward to more proficient postings from the amateurish ones seen so far.
