Timeless classic.

Rating: Null/10 (18 September 1999)

Anyone not moved and/or angered by this timeless classic is either hopelessly bigoted or brain dead. A moving, yet deeply disturbing, look at this country's racist past (and to some degree, present), this movie is wonderfully simple. Though early into the trial everyone and his uncle can see that an innocent man is on trial, it's also a forgone conclusion that the all white jury of his "peers" will not acquit him. Gregory Peck turns in one of his best performances as Atticus Finch and clearly deserved the Oscar.
