The movie, with the brilliant actor Gregory Peck, is true to the book in that mind numbing aspect.

I like it for the characters. I know I said that, but I'll say it again. The whole movie's about letting go of prejudice, a lesson the admirable Atticus keeps in mind and teaches his cute kids. Plus, Peck's so good at his role that Atticus feels completely real. I often forget it's an actor.

Well **** my dumb ass, I was thinking of Catcher in the Rye, cause I'm a drunk moron. I've never even read To Kill a Mockingbird.

Catcher in the Rye is famous because it was the first to capture dumb ass whiny teen voice.

To Kill a Mockingbird is famous because it was the first old lady book where nothing that's actually deep gets discussed and the plot is easy to follow and some of the characters are different from one another (one of them might even be a static character if you're lucky).

I'm sorry for anyone who has to read either.

I only read a small part of it as a kid in school. It was uncensored.

While on the topic of books, One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest is the best movie based off of a book. Fight me.

Apply this to that...

Like, I don't even relate to the character, even though I read the book when I was around the same age. I remember some review talking about how the book was no longer relevant, because all of the main character's cynical revelations were old hat to modern youths, and that's pretty ****ing true. Like I said, I was around the same age as the protagonist when I read the book, and I just kept thinking, "This only JUST occurred to you? You're not too bright, huh?" No matter how good the book might have been, in 2016 it is dated as ****.

That would be a close number 2



hundred thousand.

The Shining. Over and out.
