This is not the court movie where Samuel L. Jackson screams, “Yes they deserve to die and I hope they burn in hell!” This is the older court movie about racial injustice in the South. The one where Gregory Peck very politely harrumphs at things and Robert Duvall just sorta... radiates energy. Also he’s got a full head of hair and that’s just fuckin’ weird. Anyway, if you haven’t watched this one, you really should. It’s a beloved classic for multiple reasons. Even better—watch this, and then read the Harper Lee book it’s based on. by Bobby Roberts
