Book of the twentieth century. Read it a couple of times. Given the book to a few friends. Watched the movie more than once. Movie follows the book as well as any I've ever seen. It's on TCM tonight at 7:00. Might want to take a peek.

Harper Lee passed not too long ago. Off topic, but relevant; When it gets dry out, and my tomatoes start turning red, the mockingbirds wreak havoc on them. Atticus and I may have to agree to disagree.....lol.

I know, they are protected...

Haven't read the book either. Has anyone here read Harper Lee's first book, Go Set a Watchman, that this story sort of derived from?

I’m a little disappointed.

I thought this thread would be about a rule change that allowed us to exterminate the noisy little pests

Yes. It isn’t in the same league as TKAM.
I obviously can’t verify when HL wrote it but
it wasn’t published until after her death and
is set when Scout is a grown woman.
Again, doesn’t hold a candle to TKAM.

Was mostly a money grab cobbled together from some of her notes/sketches. Ms. Lee would have never authorized its publication had she been in her right mind.
