Based on Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, To Kill A Mockingbird is considered a quintessential American film about innocence, strength, and conviction. The story—set in a small, Alabama town in the 1930s—focuses on the trial of a black man accused of rape, defended by the highly respected lawyer Atticus Finch (Gregory Peck). Released during the civil rights movement, the film was a timely reflection of the continuing social injustice that existed in the South and won Academy Awards for Best Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Art Direction.
