Episode 154 - To Kill A Mockingbird (1962)
Manage episode 287098972 series 1393209
Stinking Pause – the movie review podcast with Scott, who this week is joined by Paul to chat about hot, mad rabid dogs, holes in trees and Halloween ham costumes
It’s back to 1962 for a genuine Hollywood classic with an Oscar winning performance from the legendary Gregory Peck in the big screen adaptation of Harper Lee’s To Kill A Mockingbird
Based on Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize winning book of 1961. Atticus Finch is a lawyer in the fictional town of Maycomb, a racially divided Alabama town, set in the early 1930s, and modeled after Monroeville where Harper Lee grew up. Finch agrees to defend a young black man who is accused of raping a white woman. Many of the townspeople try to get Atticus to pull out of the trial, but he decides to go ahead. How will the trial turn out - and will it effect any changes in racial attitudes in Maycomb?
“... some men in this world are born to do our unpleasant jobs for us... your father is one of them.”
