To Kill A Mockingbird is black and white, long, and based off of a book that most of us were forced to read in middle school. For these reasons, most people my age steer away from the movie. I’ve been warned by my peers to not watch To Kill A Mockingbird because it’s “boring and old and bad.” I watched the movie anyway and I’m so glad that I did. I loved the film for all of the reasons that my peers hated it. It’s classic and it’s powerful. The movie starts off childlike and innocent, with Scout and Jem (brother and sister) playing around their sleepy town of Maycomb, Alabama in the 1930’s. It later progresses into a dramatic courtroom drama in which Atticus Finch, their widowed father, is appointed the lawyer
