TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD - The defendant is not guilty ...

Reading the newspaper a few weeks ago.. there was this article about the book and film To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee..

How in the world didn't I had 2 hours for watching this amazing movie before ?

Well.. I finally found them and had a great surprise of it..

I believe all the characters are very special, well defined and each of them play indispensable roles, while Atticus Finch is the one who links all of them ..

Scout, Jem, Dill, Calpurnia, Boo Radley, Cunningham, Ewell, Mayella, Tom Robinson...

There are unforgettable scenes, the killing of the dog, when Jem and Scout meet Dill, when Atticus throws the glass to Tom Robinson, so many.. Harper Lee's book was just released a year before... I guess all this great situations were flying in the imagination of Robert Mulligan while thinking about making the movie..

In summary this film gathers together so many things about racism, community, family, justice, friendship, prejudice, childhood... which makes it one of my top films from all time..
