To Kill a Mockingbird has always been my favorite movie, and Atticus Finch will forever be my favorite character. As a child, I read the book, and seeing Atticus come to life through the artistry of Gregory Peck’s portrayal was life changing. I am still moved to tears, laughter and joy each and every time I see this movie. It was a great day in cinematic history when Harper Lee’s Atticus Finch met Gregory Peck!
