Whoo. I feel better now. Just had to get that out.

I watched "To Kill A Mockingbird" today.

I am ashamed that I had not watched it before. I read the book a long time ago and absolutely adore it, but I had not watched the movie. Let me just say, I love that film. I love everything about it. When the Reverend said, "Stand up Jean Louise, your father's passing." I lost it. It hit me like a sledgehammer in the chest. I don't know why. Maybe because I love my father so dearly and look at him like Gregory Peck's character. It was that goodness and reverence that got to me. Such a great film. The opening titles were so well done, so thought out. The music, the acting, the fact that they actually did the book justice in interpretation and style. I love that movie.

Hey, Dan Vado posted on my board. That's funny. :)

Normally I don't comment on other people's journals but, dammit, that is both one of my favorite books & movies of all time. I know it seems dull being that anyone who reads books is SUPPOSED to like that book. But what a great book!

I could watch the movie over and over again, too. Everytime I see Scout in her ham costume I laugh uncontrollably.
