Bea became this month's movie picker, selecting 1962's To Kill a Mockingbird - a classic for sure - with an Academy Award winning performance by Gregory Peck. It will be fun to see where our conversation goes when we discuss this piece of cinematic history.
On top of that, I have some interesting supporting material that deals with Mockingbird that I've decided I have to share along with tonight's screening. (I couldn't resist...) Let's just say it will (hopefully) add a uniqueness to our understanding of this film.

Ok, so my 'supporting material' kind of bombed... Admittedly, it was a little bit out there, and it didn't help that the sound on the DVD didn't work right... I still like Martin Arnold's work though. But maybe Bea's right that I'm a little weird.
The movie itself was great though. I really love those old title/credit scenes. The always so well shot and planned out. I was sucked in right away. And then, when the film got going, I remembered how serious the To Kill... story was... all I really remembered from the last time I watched it (as a kid) was Boo Radley! (And even that storyline was advanced when we realized that Robert Duval plays Boo!)
So yeah, great pick Bea.
Is it next month yet?!
