I watched the movie “To Kill a Mockingbird”
today. This is a very interesting movie for me. It was made by Robert Mulligan
in 1962. The theme is segregation and this content is a little difficult so I
didn’t understand without watching it two times.
The leading actor is Gregory Peck. He
played Atticus. He came out the world of entertainment in 1944. He appeared
“Roman Holiday”, “Duel In The Sun”, The
Paradine Case”, “The Guns of Navarone” and
more. Roman holiday is a famous movie because Audrey Hepburn appeared in it. He
is known that he is best as a co-star for her so he is a great actor. He serve
as the president of many movie associations. Also he was a president on
American Cancer Society.
There is a man who is a lawyer in Alabama.
His name is Atticus. He would defend an African American who is called Tom at
trial. But there is segregation in the town so he was criticized by people who
live in the town. Atticus has two children, Scout and Jem.
They fight against their classmate and
libel around people, but they are not beaten. It is that Tom assaulted on white
woman. The jury in the trial are all white man so it was disadvantageous for
Tom and Atticus and Tom said that he did not assaulted her with crying. Then
this was a truth. Tom is right-handed person, but it was detected that a left-handed
person hit the woman and her father is a left-handed person. Nevertheless she
insisted that she was hit by Tom. Finally innocence of him wasn’t shown in the discriminating
town. Also the movie has another story. Scout and Jem had a strange experience.
They run away from somebody and they found the dolls which looks just like them
in wood and they were attacked him.
