      I've seen Sexy Beast so many times! I love when Ben says "No no no no no no no"
      So good, that movie. Ray Winstone was awesome too.

                  Being a big fan of the book, To Kill a Mockingbird, I thought that Gregory Peck would be outstanding as Atticus Finch. But compared to the book Atticus, Peck showed too much affection toward the children. In the book he was loving, caring, and strict without showing too much emotion. I was hoping for an emotionless character, like Dustin Hoffman in Rain Man.
