Entry for Stephen King

STEPHEN KING: WESTERN ECONOMIES ARE STILL IN DANGE...(Read more)
 

Stephen Edwin King (born September 21, 1947) is an American author of over 200 stories including over 50 bestselling horror and fantasy novels. King was the 2003 recipient of The National Book Foundation's Medal for Distinguished Contribution to American Letters.

King evinces a thorough knowledge of the horror genre, as shown in his nonfiction book Danse Macabre, which chronicles several decades of notable works in both literature and cinema. He has also written stories outside the horror genre, including the novella collection Different Seasons, The Green Mile, The Eyes of the Dragon, Hearts in Atlantis and his magnum opus The Dark Tower series. In the past, Stephen King has written under the pen names Richard Bachman and (once) John Swithen.  (Read full article from Wikipedia...)

The Green Mile
Set in a Louisiana prison in 1935, this grossly overlong but masterful sentimental fantasy is clearly aimed at the Forrest Gump audience. Tom Hanks plays a warden who forms a life-affirming relationship with a condemned black prisoner, on death row for the murder of two little girls. Suspension of disbelief is essential if you're to enjoy Frank Darabont's reverential adaptation of Stephen King's 1996 novel - all the wardens are angels, bar one. Yet Darabont, directing his first film since The Shawshank Redemption (also a Stephen King prison drama), cleverly manipulates our emotions and only the very hard-hearted will remain dry-eyed throughout or unshocked by the harrowing execution scenes. The film received four Oscar nominations, including best picture and a well-deserved best supporting actor nod for relative newcomer Michael Clarke Duncan as the convicted child-killer.(Starring:Paul Edgecomb*Tom Hanks|Brutus "Brutal" Howell*David Morse|Jan Edgecomb*Bonnie Hunt|John Coffey*Michael Clarke Duncan|Warden Hal Moores*James Cromwell|Eduard Delacroix*Michael Jeter|Arlen Bitterbuck*Graham Greene (2)|Percy Wetmore*Doug Hutchison|"Wild Bill" Wharton*Sam Rockwell|Toot-Toot*Harry Dean Stanton|Old Paul Edgecomb*Dabbs Greer)

Latest Movie Trailers

  The Mist - Trailer 2
Three-time Oscar-nominee Frank Darabont (“The Green Mile,” “The Shawshank Redemption”) reunites with horror-master Stephen King to write and direct this chilling adaptation of the author’s original short story. Following a violent thunderstorm, artist David Drayton and a small town community come under vicious attack from creatures prowling in a thick and unnatural mist. Local rumors point to an experiment called the ‘The Arrowhead Project’ conducted at a nearby top-secret military base, but questions as to the origins of the deadly vapor are secondary to the group’s overall chances for survival. Retreating to a local supermarket, Drayton and the survivors must face-off against each other before taking a united stand against an enemy they cannot even see!
Directed by: Frank Darabont
Starring: Thomas Jane, Marcia Gay Harden, Alexa Davalos
