To Kill A Mockingbird is a film based on the original novel by Harper Lee. The film brings the novel to life and allows the viewer to visualize the book in a new way. The film is about a southern lawyer named Atticus Finch, who is tasked with defending a black man in court, during a time where racism and prejudice were highly prevalent. The movie like the book spreads awareness about the issues of prejudice, injustice, and discrimination. And allows you to see what life was like for the racially prejudiced back in the 1930s. Gregory Peck who plays Atticus Finch won an academy award for his performance in the film and is praised as one of the greatest heroes in American Film Culture. If you are a fan of the book, or someone looking to watch a good film, To Kill A Mockingbird is a great movie to watch. - @CoolReadz of the Hamilton Public Library Teen Review Board To Kill A Mockingbird, based on the book of the same name by Harper Lee, is a fantastic film. It captures the main themes and ideas of the movie although many parts aren’t mentioned so you should definitely still read the book. It was originally released in 1962 so it is in black and white but I find that this makes the film even better. I must also mention that Gregory Peck flawlessly portrays Atticus, he is absolutely perfect for the role. I would rate it 4.5/5 stars. - @reginaphalange of the Teen Review Board at the Hamilton Public Library
