One of the all time greats.

Rating: 10/10 (20 February 2015)

To Kill a Mocking Bird is one of the all time greatest books and films of all time. It's the timeless story of Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck) a lawyer in the Great Depression in Alabama and his relationship with his children Jean "Scout" Finch (Mary Badham) and Jem Finch (Phillip Alford) and his devotion in defending Tom Robinson (Brock Peters) an African American man accused of rape. The book is one of the most critically acclaimed works of literature ever and it was brought to the screen with great success. Atticus is one of my favorite characters of all time. He's a hero who strives to serve justice to an unrepresented minority. And the scenes where he talks to his kids about different things are great too. The best scene of all though is the courtroom scene. I highly recommend To Kill a Mocking Bird in literary or cinematic form.
