Not only do you get one of the great films of all time, you also get the documentary about the film and its impact on the general public. The film is about a man's priciples to defend a black man who is accused of rape during the Great Depression. The film is also about growing up and facing lifes realities. This work is truly beautiful and has held up every bit as good as when it was first released. The film also follows the book very closely and does a wonderfull job of adapting the masterpiece.
The DVD has running commentary from the film makers as well as an exclusive documentary about the film. This project could not been done better. It is part of my personal film library and is truly a great addition.

This is another rendition of an American classic. I had seen this movie and read the book in the past, so was there really anything new this time? We watched it as a school project for my daughter. She watched it as a teenager, my wife watched it as a teacher and I watched it as a lawyer and, for tonight, at least, a part-time tutor. We each saw something in it that we had not appreciated before. For me, the courtroom scenes were interesting, but I identified more with Atticus, the father, than Atticus the lawyer. No matter how often you have watched this in the past, you will find something new to admire when you watch it again. Never stop!

I am not going to discuss the film, as many other have covered it. The Blu transfer looks and sounds great, but if you are buying the film with the intention of getting benefit of the digital copy, be aware of the following when using the code through iTunes Canada :
SD - 1.76GB
Code until - 31 December 2012

To kill a mocking bird.
Wonderful movie and wonderful story. Gregory Peck is great as always. I saw the movie years ago and it was even better than I remembered it.

Gregory Peck at his best. This black & white classic is a must-have! Harper Lee's book is landmark American literature and the movie really does it justice.

To Kill A Mockingbird (Legacy Series Edition)
A wonderful DVD of a classic. Gregory Peck is amazing. A timeless story, which should be studied today with regard to our preconcieved prejudices.
