A Remarkably Simple and Simply Remarkable Masterpiece!, 7 March 2005

Very rarely, it happens that movies are made that are very simple in
expression but possess monumental appeals and significant life lessons
in a style only of the kind of their own that, we can't expect even.
This fact is truthfully exemplified in this movie. It's not just a
movie or even just a promising story in general, but all it portray's
is "Innocence". A girl's recollection of her childhood days which are
still at their full bloom in her mind, depicting the innocence of
juvenile as well as as adult minds, a period where mostly immature
minds become curious to the racial bigotry and sometimes mature minds
become its prey and a time when harsh realities of life like
intolerance, hatreds, prejudice and adversities of society gradually
dawn upon them.
Atticus Finch ( Gregory Peck ) is an absolutely Gentleman Lawyer whose
wife has passed away and he has a son and a daughter. A Black man Tom
Robinson is wrongly alleged of raping a poor white woman. In fact, he a
victim of white woman's effort to hide her guilt by targeting his
innocence and utilizing favors of racial attitude of unsocial society
towards Negros. Finch decides to defend him on his principles realizing
that the narrow minded society will turn against him and so it happened
and townspeople started making his life agonizing. The whole story is
masterfully out shined by the ingenuousness, purity and innocence of
his children with with a unique inspirational interaction with their
father.
Boo Readly who lives in the town is mentally retarded and is sidelined
by the society. He is a mark of fear and curiosity for children because
he is different from others. But he is the one who marks the ultimate
climax of this emotionally crafted masterpiece.
It's a must see movie for all ages in all times because it gives many
priceless emotional and touching lessons for those who are sincere and
perceptive.
A Remarkably Simple and Simply Remarkanble Masterpiece!!!
