DVD Review: To Kill a Mockingbird
Summary: 5 Stars

Great movie, Gregory Peck at his best. Shows just how injust our system was at that time in history...and at times is still. Great story line, simple yet made interesting. Must have for old black & white, no sex, no profanity, good clean entertainment. Hollywood at it's best. They don't make them like this anymore, sad.

DVD Review: a classic!
Summary: 5 Stars

I had seen the movie MANY years before and decided to check out a copy of the book from our local library. What a good read! I was curious about the movie so bought it from Amazon. The movie is amazing and follows the book very closely. My husband had never seen the movie and was riveted by it. Gregory Peck captures Atticus' demeanor to a t!

DVD Review: Wonderful
Summary: 5 Stars

This movie was just as wonderful as I remembered it. Theres so many junk movies being churned out so it was a pleasure to watch a movie classic..with teachable moments..for our grandchildren who enjoyed it.

DVD Review: Must See for Moral Truths
Summary: 5 Stars

Harper Lee's novel, on which the screenplay for this film is based, is one of the very finest American novels. The film is as fine as the book. The storyline follows the lives of three children, playmates in an small fictional Alabama County seat town (Maycomb in Maycomb County) where Atticus Finch, an attorney and father of two of the children is working to defend a black man who is falsely accused of the rape of a white woman. The story deals with honor and dishonor, racism, hatred, bigotry and redeeming love. It treats with gentle irony and profound moral insight the legal, social and spiritual issues of cruel poverty and heroic moral courage when that poverty, together with stupidity and moral cowardice call for taking the right course even when there is no possibility of victory. It is a story of the triumph of decency and grace where both are out of keeping with old codes and evil assumptions. It is a call for courage and a call for courage.

Ranked 34 on the American Film Institute's list of the 100 Greatest American Films, To Kill a Mockingbird is quite simply one of the finest family-oriented dramas ever made. A beautiful and deeply affecting adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Harper Lee, the film retains a timeless quality that transcends its historically dated subject matter (racism in the Depression-era South) and remains powerfully resonant in present-day America with its advocacy of tolerance, justice, integrity, and loving, responsible parenthood. It's tempting to call this an important "message" movie that should be required viewing for children and adults alike, but this riveting courtroom drama is anything but stodgy or pedantic. As Atticus Finch, the small-town Alabama lawyer and widower father of two, Gregory Peck gives one of his finest performances with his impassioned defense of a black man (Brock Peters) wrongfully accused of the rape and assault of a young white woman. While his children, Scout (Mary Badham) and Jem (Philip Alford), learn the realities of racial prejudice and irrational hatred, they also learn to overcome their fear of the unknown as personified by their mysterious, mostly unseen neighbor Boo Radley (Robert Duvall, in his brilliant, almost completely nonverbal screen debut). What emerges from this evocative, exquisitely filmed drama is a pure distillation of the themes of Harper Lee's enduring novel, a showcase for some of the finest American acting ever assembled in one film, and a rare quality of humanitarian artistry (including Horton Foote's splendid screenplay and Elmer Bernstein's outstanding score) that seems all but lost in the chaotic morass of modern cinema. --Jeff Shannon
