To Kill a Mockingbird

To Kill a Mockingbird

1962

Southern comforts abound in this classic adaptation of Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning novel. Gregory Peck won an Oscar for his role as Atticus Finch, a widowed lawyer who takes on the task of defending an innocent black man (Brock Peters) against rape charges, only to wind up in a maelstrom of hate and prejudice that threatens to invade the lives of his children, Jem and Scout (Phillip Alford and Mary Badham).

The most beloved and widely read Pulitzer Prize Winner now comes vividly alive on the screen!

Winner of 3 Academy Awards
