Gregory Peck won an Oscar for his brilliant performance as the Southern lawyer who defends a black man accused of rape in this film version of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. The way in which it captures a time, a place, and above all, a mood, makes this film a masterpiece. The setting is a dusty Southern town during the Depression. A white woman accuses a black man of rape. Though he is obviously innocent, the outcome of his trial is such a foregone conclusion that no lawyer will step forward to defend him except Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck), the town's most distinguished citizen. His compassionate defense costs him many friendships but earns him the respect and admiration of his two motherless children.

A wonderful book and a wonderful movie. Gregory Peck makes the handsomest and sweetest Atticus, and Scout and Jem and Boo are all so wonderfully captured. I love this story and her characters far too much to let it go, even though I first read it as a mandatory novel in my ninth grade English class. It certainly is very old, but done so well and with such class that coming back to it year after year never makes it feel cheesy.

My favorite book! I had been looking forward to watching the movie and was not disappointed. Some things were changed but that usually happens when they make a movie out of a book.

Gregory Peck is one of my all time favourite actor's from back in day. And 1962's To Kill a Mockingbird is my favourite film of Gregory Peck. Gregory Peck delivers a great performance that won him an Academy Award in 1963.
