Regardless of its flaws, it occupies a specific place in American cinema; it's easy to enjoy and hard to forget.
09/30/05
Arguably one of the best dramatic films ever made, brought home with tons of great features, a sparkling new transfer, and a nifty fold-out case.

With the Tom Robinson plot intertwining with Scout and Jem's education in the ugly flaws of a world they're only beginning to comprehend, today the film offers an extra accumulated layer of 'meaning.'

...endearing, heartwarming, tragic, uplifting, and, ultimately, inspiring. Movies don't get any better than this.

Combining the best of Southern Gothic and coutroom drama traditions, this Oscar-winner is poignant as a classic coming-of-age tale and expose of the American legal system

To Kill a Mockingbird should make admirers of the novel weep many times over.

An oldie but goody that can still entertain as it preaches.
01/07/02
Made in black and white in 1962 at a time when other movies had switched to color, it shattered many notions of what was right.
