For those of you who have not seen this small English film it has what has to be considered as one of the most amazing performances from Sir Ben. Compare this with Ghandhi and then consider how completely the role was taken onboard.
You MUST this performance let alone those of the excellent supporting casr also -

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.
