    I read the book again just last week. Everytime Atticus speaks in the book I hear Gregory Peck's voice and I see Mr peck standing, sitting, shooting like he did in the movie.
    The actors and the characters are forever one in my mind.
    This movie is a classic and no one should ever attempt to remake it or colorize it. Leave it black and white.
    Atticus has exited.

    She looks the same, and seems like such a nice person to sit and chat with.. Timeless movie and book. A little trivia, John Badham, her older brother, directed the movie Saturday Night Fever.

    In my opinion, Mary Badham's portrayal of Scout is the best performance I've ever seen done by an actress.

      Actually, Scout dress up as a ham only once in her lifetime - and that was for a school party sometime around Halloween - probably a "pre-Halloween" party - before Halloween was the holiday it became in the late 20th Century!!!!!!!

    To our beloved Scout ❤. It is said by experts in the know that your Brilliant and outright Precious performance in this movie has been viewed by many hundreds of millions of people worldwide! Far more than the majority of all other actors/actresses. I saw this all time great movie when it premiered in Atlanta when i was11 years old. Close to.your and Philip's age. I frequently listen to Maestro Elmer Bernsteins HEAVENLY score and when I do I think of you,Jem, Atticus and Boo❤😂 I am convinced that the Heavens abided with you all from the beginnin🙏😇God Bless.

    Our class was given the assignment of reading the book before I saw the movie and, when I finally did see the movie, I was struck by the fact that visual experience was absolutely identical to what I had imagined when I read the book. Obviously, Harper Lee's writing was so descriptive that the set designer saw what I imagined when reading the book. That's the mark of a talented writer. TRIVIA: Harper Lee and Truman Capote (another talented writer) were life-long friends and collaborators.

      @@persiatuvim7476 Also to give a good account of the difference between racism - deliberate choice of a person to see another as less than they are, and socialized (if you will) racism - the "racism" that you have simply because it's what you hear, it's what you see, and it's what you're taught and you don't know any better or any other way to think.
