Can Not be rated under 10

Rating: 10/10 (26 January 2012)

Growing up with the book, the movie, the history and the pre "Civil Rights" times. I have nothing really bad to say on this film.
It grieves me to know that in fact the book in its entirety was not filmed and the cuts do not survive only a picture or two of the missing scenes. True book fans would lower the rating for this. I think the movie can stand up without the scenes... So did Margret.
Lets be truthful..... Story is a 10, cinematography is a 10, acting is a 10, screenplay adaptation is a 9.899, credits are a 10 (very unusual), music is a 10. Anything else is nick picking.
Thats my Mennonite Perspective.....
A few notes of change: - Calpurnia taking the children to her church was cut.... - Miss Maudie and Miss Rachel were combined into one character..... Mrs, Debose's death scene was cut.... A character Aunt was left out of the film (Not as Bad as leaving a child out of Gone With The Wind)
