How to be weird
The film: To Kill a Mockingbird was based on the book by Harper Lee. The director of the film is Robert Mulligan. The movie takes place during the 1930s in the small town of Maycomb, Alabama. Just like in the book, it is about a widowed father of two who is a lawyer. He is supposed to defend an African American man accused of raping and beating a young white woman. Atticus is faced with ha hard decision. He knows Tom (the accused) is innocent. However, Maycomb is stuck in its ways and he does not want to harm his family by trying to change it. In the end, Atticus does the right thing by defending Tom. However, the whole town is affected. Gregory Peck plays Atticus Finch, a slightly old, but wise man. In the film, Atticus (Gregory) is lawyer during the great depression. He has two children. He is a widowed single father.

They don't do anything to the town of Maycomb. Boo Radley even saves the Finch children. Later, he realizes that his father does have cool qualities, just not the ones he would have thought was cool. Mulligan was too afraid too, which is understandable. In the film, Mulligan does an average job of creating her. Since they were poor they lived in the "negro" area of town, behind the dump. The film is a mixture between drama and mystery. That is, after all , what one would expect if it was based on the novel. He is to defend a young African American man acused of raping and beating up a young woman named Mayella Ewell. Jem is at the age where he is starting to mature.
