To Kill a Mockingbird

To Kill a Mockingbird

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 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 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.

Synopsis: Much-loved, compelling classic confronts racial bigotry via tale of widowed Southern lawyer and his kids. Acclaimed performances appeal to fans of character-driven drama, sensitive coming-of-age tales, and riveting courtroom confrontations.
