    And whilst I also.list Zulu Dawn up there I did find the casting rather erratic.

    Peter O'Toole as Lord Chelmsford was perfect

    Simon Ward as Verecker as above

    However Denholm Elliott as Pulliene and Burt Lancsater as General Durnford were bizarre choices.


    Also some folk.may not be aware that our very own Dai Bradley was in this film as was Chris Chittell (Emmerdales Eric Pollard)

    Cant think of my top personal five favourite films right now, but The Green Mile is definitely one of them.
