"If you just learn a single trick, Scout, you'll get along a lot better with all kinds of folks. You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it." – Atticus Finch

Why watch this? It's a superb adaptation of the Pulitzer-winning classic novel.

Plot Summary: Scout Finch is a young girl growing up in a racially segregated Alabama town during the Great Depression. Her principled lawyer father, Atticus, defends a black man falsely accused of raping a white woman. Through the trial and interactions with their mysterious neighbor, Boo Radley, Scout and her brother Jem confront the complex realities of prejudice, injustice, and the loss of childhood innocence.

Dad's Preview: A wonderful, yet somber message film about a racially motivated 1930's trial in the deep Southern state of Alabama. There is a pivotal moment in the film, at night, when an angry mob descends upon the jail house, hell-bent on lynching the black man on trial. Only Atticus Finch, the black man's attorney, stands in their way, and he seems no match for their anger, torches and guns. Suddenly Scout, his 8 year-old daughter, steps forward from behind Atticus. What this precocious young lady does next will have you in tears.
