CLIP DESCRIPTION:
When Atticus (Gregory Peck) cross-examines Mayella (Collin Wilcox Paxton), he proves that Tom is only right-handed, and Mayella has an outburst.
FILM DESCRIPTION:
Harper Lee's Pulitzer Prize-winning autobiographical novel was translated to film in 1962 by Horton Foote and the producer/director team of Robert Mulligan and Alan J. Pakula. Set a small Alabama town in the 1930s, the story focuses on scrupulously honest, highly respected lawyer Atticus Finch, magnificently embodied by Gregory Peck. Finch puts his career on the line when he agrees to represent Tom Robinson (Brock Peters), a black man accused of rape. The trial and the events surrounding it are seen through the eyes of Finch's six-year-old daughter Scout (Mary Badham). While Robinson's trial gives the film its momentum, there are plenty of anecdotal occurrences before and after the court date: Scout's ever-strengthening bond with older brother Jem (Philip Alford), her friendship with precocious young Dill Harris (a character based on Lee's childhood chum Truman Capote and played by John Megna), her father's no-nonsense reactions to such life-and-death crises as a rampaging mad dog, and especially Scout's reactions to, and relationship with, Boo Radley (Robert Duvall in his movie debut), the reclusive "village idiot" who turns out to be her salvation when she is attacked by a venomous bigot. To Kill a Mockingbird won Academy Awards for Best Actor (Peck), Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Art Direction.

i applaud this movie for taking the dialogue straight out of the novel for nearly the entire movie
omg that's very interesting, i didn't know that. I wonder why books that are turned into movies don't do that today
Yes. *I read the novel (To Kill a Mockingbird) before the movie;* therefore, I took the _novel's descriptions for the characters - and implemented it._ Yet, I found that the movie _captured the character's appearances well, as well._ They chose a talented set of actors to play the character roles. I noticed that they had the capability to *memorize lines, well.*
*[On a side-note.]*
_The only line I can recall from the movie_ that was altered in the book was when Atticus (Gregory Peck) said _"the defendant is not guilty, but someone in this courtroom is."_ In the movie, *_"defendant"_* was replaced with *_"man."_* (Paraphrasing the words.)
However, that certainly does not alter my opinion for this film. It surely did capture the character's archetypes well; with additional memorization on point. It was enjoyable to watch and read.
This and The Outsiders are the two most faithful movie adaptations. All the lines in each movie, are almost exactly the same as the books.
@@superjackster0165 *need a haircut greaser*
@@pedrorojo7851 LMAO
Atticus is the kinda guy who would voice God in a Christmas animation.
MyHeroMacadamiaNuts she is triggered
OMG SO TRUE
Ahahahahahaha truuuuue
ThatKidWhoLiesAboutHisAge OnTheInternet hi again.
I wouldn't mind that at all.
Atticus is the ultimate bad ass.
Yes
A badass gentleman. Oh he was the intelligent woman's most do-able guy, that's for sure! His voice alone sends shivers! 🥰💋💪👍
atticus is a dilf u can't change my mind
@@srividyacharepalli5332 why would u want to change ur mind
She's a difficult character to like, but you can't deny that the actress playing her was intense!
Geoffrey Oliver One of the most powerful courtroom cinema scenes ever. She was a tragic character. Tragic in that she was enmired in the venom of her era, community, and most critically--father.
@@RETROGEMS good actress passed several years ago I think she was in jaws 2 as a marine biologist
Geoffrey Oliver she desrved famee man
Your not supposed to like her lol she accused him of something he didn’t do
I don't know how true this is but I read somewhere (can't remember now as it was years ago when I read the book in English lit class) that Collin Wilcox the actress who played Mayella was either civil rights activist or at least involved in civil rights and when she attended an NAACP conference people really believed she was like Mayella and they had to be reminded that she was there because she believed in the cause and was only playing a part in the movie and Mayella's character in no way reflected her real life beliefs.
This is my favorite part in the book when Atticus Finch just really traps her in the corner. He's a great lawyer.
My fav part is when bob ewell died and arthur came
You have to kind of feel some sympathy for her she was being abused and daddy Ewell was the most likely culprit
@@patrickgogan3517 he did abuse her in the book
@@Largest_Marge Her dad sexually abused her in the book?
I forget if it was sexual or not but definetly was beating her
The actress playing Mayella doesn't look 19 or those are some rough nineteen years.
Well, she HAS had some pretty rough 19 years! Mayella lives in the most disgusting, poorest home in town with the most disgusting, poorest father imaginable.
She does a great job though
Very. Bob Ewell is an abusive lout of a father.
@Latina Beauty the movie/book is set in the early 30s
Latina Beauty
the Film was made in the 1960s, but took place in the 1930s
It’s obvious Mayella was lying and atom was telling the truth. Atticus knew it, but didn’t hold anything against Mayella because he knew and understood her horrible situation and her horrible home life.
Too rite
“atom”
We were watching this in my class and some boy in the back whispered, "Dang, Atticus is hot!"
Normally I don't agree with him about anything, but he has a point lol 😂
He's ridiculously attractive😂 Cannot blame that kid lol
Sluguins are you gay
It’s odd. But I like him. And he supports gays because his name is based on the Atticus circle, which protects gay rights.
@@LiamS1947 Not really. Atticus is just "Athenian" in Latin. That only came decades after both the book and movie were made. And Finch requires no explanation because it's all about bird allusions and freedom in this novel.
@@LiamS1947 Nah, it's a Latin name.
Okay, lets be honest. Who are all here because they're reading this in english class?
Fletch money me
Fletch money Me!
If I knew about it before though I would of still read it...
Yup
Fletch money me
Mayella isn't attractive because thy never really stated that she was drop-dead gorgeous in the book.
The movie isn't focused on beautiful people taking every role, which makes it seem so much more realistic.
I just saw the movie...but what that heck is the point?? is not a racism movie...nop..i didnt see it like that....its not a story about a fater loving his kids...neither a story about kids remembering their childhood??? what in the mother of f*** is this movie about?? it never goes "that" deep on the racist issue. I get the mockingbird metaphor....but?? what that hell...i was expecting more "racism" subjects on this movie before seen it. I think is kind overrated. And people love it, cause its a book that they read in school.
koshi loco It is a book about prejudice. As author Harper Lee said in an interview, "My book has a universal theme, it’s not a ‘racial’ novel. It portrays an aspect of civilization. I tried to show the conflict of the human soul-reduced to its simplest terms. It’s a novel of man’s conscience . . . universal in the sense that it could happen to anybody, anywhere people live together…"
@@GdashO Well said!!!!
he is suppouse to be 19 still, so
stop the caping.
I remember reading this book and fangirling about what a badass Atticus was.
I think we can all agree... Atticus is a dilf
lmaoOo
yasss
lmao tru
I'm ace, but I agree.
I am a straight dude......But yeah
I was born in the 60's, during the time of race riots and people seeking freedom. I remember my school showing this movie to all of us kids. Was very powerful. Way ahead of it's time. Atticus was a single father, raising 2 children during the depression. He was stern, honest, compassionate, loving. Just allowing his children to call him by his first name, allowing them to grow into who they were was before it's time. The kids begin to know who their father is when he does things they thought he was incapable of doing. Like being the "Best shot in the County". Maybe served in WW1. His hatred for fighting and the "N" word. Allowing clients to pay with what they could afford. Many moments that were outstanding. When the kids save Atticus from the mob, by a child's innocence. The Balcony standing and the Reverand saying to Miss Gene Louise(Scout), "Stand up, your Fathers passing". When Atticus find out from Sheriff Tate that Tom was killed. His back was to the camera. You could see his brokenness just by looking at him, as he turns toward the front porch. And when he gave Boo Radley, his respect and gratitude by saying, this is Mr. Arthur Radley. Giving him his due respect as a man, no matter what his mental state was. When Scout walks him to his front porch, and back home Atticus lifts her onto his lap and holds her. As a boy, man, and father, his actions and compassion has stayed with me my whole life.
Legend has it that this is loosely based off of the Scottsboro Boys trial from 1931 (which was also in Alabama)
You'll never know what Mayella said unless you read the book or turn on the captions..Thank god for captions.
same
Or you know Southern talk.
Chibi Lychee raised in the south and still no clue.
I will admit that I had to go back a few times to hear what Mayella said, because crying, screaming Mayella is rather difficult to understand, but I figured out what she said, especially when I was wearing earphones. I dunno; maybe I can figure out what screaming actors are saying, because I can desipher John Rambo's mental breakdown. lol
Chibi Lychee For real though!
I realized something when Mayella was yelling that if the court didn't believe what she accused Tom of, they were nothing more than cowards. While she definitely was referring to Tom in this case, I wonder if she was also subconsciously letting her anger and frustration at anyone who didn't try to help her poor situation when she was a child, given that her family was mocked and ignored by the whole town just for being related to Bob Ewell, and in doing so they did nothing to protect her or her siblings from his neglect or their poor living conditions.
Mayella was not just a single character but a type of person, as all of the characters in the novel were. She represented the abused passing along her abuse to others who were abused even more than she. All to the amusement of power people.
The town did try to help the ewells. They let bob hunt out of season to feed his family and they brought them food and other supplies at Christmas. The Ewells are unable to help themselves since Bob, his parents and children are/have been too stuck in their ways to change.
Atticus's voice is exactly as I had imagined 😢!!!
Gregory Peck was a fucking brilliant actor!
she cant get her damn story straight because her father did it to her for hugging tom. and her father told her to blame it on tom but she was so scared she couldn't get the story straight
kissing Tom!
I just love her acting. For theatre we had to do monologues in front of the class, and I chose Mayella. Her paragraph is quite well written.
The part when Mayella is yelling is my favorite. Colin Wilcox gave an awesome performance.
mayella had me like 😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒😒
LaPrentice Veronica Mayes lol true
Right, I was giving her the sideye the whole time. Girl had my eyes rolling 😩
Glad im not the only one who thinks this.
The ultimate “sure Jan” moment in literature.
This is for the book and movie point of view speaking like a detective or sum,When she had her eyes wide open, that’s when she knew she been caught lying, I mean my great uncle’s right arm muscles torn loose and I can see he can barely use it, what kind of “rapist” she calls Him uses one arm to do it
There is a gravitas in Gregory Peck's acting in this movie that I don't know we can find again in American actors of this generation. This is the difference between the eras of film making: actors today are chosen and promoted based on a perceived box office draw, not on acting talent or training. I think this does the art of film making a disservice and the evidence is seen in how many British actors who have undergone the process of training at British acting schools take up the great dramatic roles of the last 20 years, culminating in Daniel Day-Lewis earning his Oscar for playing Lincoln.
exactly
Actor's back then were also chosen for their box office draw. The difference was that box-office draw wasn't as quantifiable back then (because there were fewer metrics to go on) and cinema held a larger share of people's leisure attention, which meant that there was more ambiguity and leeway to favor actors who were "better for the role."
1:00 See how Mayella jumped? She's been driven into such a pitiful state by all the cruelty around her. Mayella was almost as much a victim as Tom and it makes me sick!
Tom never did anything bad in his life, despite being treated like s*it. mayella got a man killed.
@@cybercriminal3110 she was also beaten and abused by her father. Both Mayella and Tom are victims in their own way. The real criminal and cruel person is Bob Ewell.
@@heathermontrose1084 So if you're abused by someone you can murder people?
Deserved lmao
she stopped being a victim in the moment she went along with this slander
I love Atticus so much. He is my spirit animal :P
aglove275
*_*Spirit guide*_* not animal dumbass
@@whispersinthewinds8641 uhh there is such thing as a spirit animal? They were correct a spirit guide is different
@@whispersinthewinds8641 there also isn't any need to be a douche
Arabella A.
Well then use the correct terms & it's spirit guide which is a person.
@@whispersinthewinds8641 Well technically a human is a mammal and in return is an animal so it could be used in that terminalogy. But maybe that person didn't know there was a difference there still isn't any reason to call them a dumbass
Collin Wilcox the actress that played Mayella was actually heavy into Civil Rights activism. One year she attended a NAACP conference and received very dirty looks. People had to be reminded that she is an actress and that was a role she was playing. Sometimes when an actress plays a role so good it's hard for some folks to decipher between that actor/actress and the role that they play.
This is one of those movie scenes that sticks with me. No wonder Harper Lee never wanted another movie version besides this.
Bro, this honestly was one of the best books I’ve read In English, I low key miss 9th grade because I remember reading to kill a mocking bird and then talking to my friend about what’s gonna happen next
What country are you from cause is one of many Banned books in U.S. Schools
Pity there is so little of Brock Peters on UA-cam. As a kid watching him he always intrigued me: there was something noble and tragic about him, like a King in exile. Maybe it was the roles he was given, he was born in the wrong time and skin, or the African American was too classical for Hollywood. A piece of heaven would be owning a library of audio books narrated by that hypnotic voice.
I wonder if the trial would’ve gone differently if the judge had requested her father to be out of the room when she testified
This is the single greatest courtroom scene in the history of film.
What I don't understand is why loads of you are calling Mayella a fake b*tch. If she didn't say all those things then she was going to be beaten and abused even more by her father. She was acting out of fear not hate.
she still cost a man his freedom and in turn, his life
I know that and I'm not trying to say what she did was right but that if she had the choice without any influence from her father I sincerely doubt she would have chosen to prosecute him.
she's still a fake bitch though
I don't think that's fair. I just say blame Bob Ewell.
Okay, let's say she did say that it was her father who rapes and beats her. The police would get involved take away her siblings, distribute them into different homes. They would all be split up. Also, had she told the truth, she would have been shunned from the community even more than she already is because she tried to seduce a black man. She would be an even greater outsider than she already is! Finally, from an outside perspective, it is clearly a bad situation without her having to confess about her father, yet the police have done nothing to help, so what faith does she have in the police that they will do anything about it? Now add the fear of her father... of course she's going to lie! Now I'm not saying that what she did was right, she was still throwing away a man's life! But from her perspective, she didn't know she had another choice....
I'm going to be playing Mayella at my local theater, so I have been studying and analyzing her character for the past few months.
Poor Mayella. Yeah, she practically condemned Tom, but she was a victim as well.
What she did costed him his life
Blue Skeptic I don't think her dad raped her. I think he just beat and abused her.
"mayella in the book is 19 in the movie she looks like a 35 year old"
-My little cousin
The lady that played Mayella was in her twenties.
We can best assume that stress aged her terribly.
R.I.P Mrs Harper. 👼💫
I like Mayella's actor, she's very convincing
Man, Atticus is a great lawyer, and Gregory Peck is an excellent actor
it's been 5 years since i've seen this movie but atticus can still get it and i will live by that forever. i mean look at him and his VOICE.
Mayella looks kinda like Sarah Paulson...
I thought she looked like christine basley ford
when i was in high school, i remember hating this book so much. in fact, i didn't even read it. but now that i'm older, i wish i had appreciated it more. i do now, and i now see how powerful this story is and why it's always apart of the english curriculum.
so kids: appreciate and read all the books you have to read in high school! you'll learn to appreciate it later.
Actress playing mayella later starred in twilight zone episode: number 12 looks just like you
Yep!
Ohh that’s what I know her from
In April and May of 2017, I performed in The Gallery Players production of To Kill A Mockingbird. I was cast as Atticus Finch.
I used to watch this movie a lot when I was a young boy. This movie brings back so many good memories.
When my class doesn't agree with me on a question: 2:05
lol
Mayella = Original Karen
bought this book around the start of this week and now im on this page of the book 👏 the trial was my favorite part even though the outcome was extremely unpleasant
my favorite book in the entire world, and one of the most incredible films ever made.
My English Teacher was right. This book is enjoyable.
I’m watching this instead of reading the book for the test tomorrow
ChillKanna How’d you do on that test?
Joe Whitehead F
ChillKanna Ouch
they said she was like 19 in the book, she looks 40
I just watched it today as a 29 year old, I love everything about the movie from the protagonist portrayed marvelously by Mr gregory , the children and the rest of the supporting cast.
Ngl Mayella looks about the same age as Atticus, even though she was stated to be 19, either that’s a good thing for Atticus or a bad thing for mayella
You can hear in her voice how bad her life is. Just like in the novel her brother Burris shouts obscenities at the teacher that he obviously learned listening to his dad curse at mayella. Likewise when a much smaller student comes to her defense Burris is scared of the much smaller child. If he is afraid of a smaller younger male imagine how scared he must be when his father goes off on him or his siblings.
The guy who played Atticus is handsome oh my good.
the word coward does also insult the disgraced and the traitor
Wow the teacher in English who explained this really made me want to watch it, it’s amazing.
The late, great actress Collin Wilcox Paxton as Mayella.
"I had known girls from that kind of background. [At the audition] all the other girls trying out for the part were overly made up; they had curly, clean hair and wore brassieres and high heels. I wore a secondhand dress, tennis shoes with holes in them, and dirty little white socks. I rubbed cold cream through my hair--and that's why my hair looked so dirty -- CWP, reflecting on her role as "Mayella" in the film To Kill a Mockingbird (1962).
" She deserved an Oscar nomination or golden globe nomination, but received neither.
Thanks for this. She is outstanding. I came to this scene because today is her birthday.
When mayella said “sittin’ right yonder” I think she looked at Bob as she pointed.
I remember reading this in the 9th grade for English class and also watching the movie. I absolutely loved it. (:
I need a father like Atticus man♥️
1:00 the look of a guilty woman
I'd totally forgotten. My older son is named Jeremy and when he was little I called him Jem. Didn't know why but now I remember.
Atticus is a well, straight forward man and I respect that.
1:57-2:48
I got something to say, and then I ain’t gonna say no more...he took advantage of me, and if you fine, fancy gentleman ain’t gonna do nothing about it then your just a bunch of lousy, yellow, stinking cowards! The whole bunch of ya! And your fancy airs don’t come to nothing your ma’aming and your Miss Mayella’ing it don’t come to nothing Mr. Finch, n-n-(collapse into sobs/cradle head)
One of the best novels I've ever read
10/10 Atticus
Mayella and her father committed the worst kind of perjury imaginable. Her father probably beat her savagely but she is still complicit in the perjury. I would have more sympathy for her if not for her lies which condemned Tom Robinson.
"Would you identify the man who BEAT you..." classy dub.
Peck was a master class actor
There is also a sharp contradiction in the book.
She testifies that her father ran in the room screaming "who was it?", but he claims earlier that he looked in through the window and got a clear look of who it was.
These two statement clash... such a wasted opportunity for his closing speech.
Yes, this has been bothering me too. Did Lee mean this to be seen as an oversight by Atticus? If so, it is surprising that Jem did not spot the anomaly. Or is it just a "mistake" by Lee? Puzzling.
It's not an oversight since Atticus was fighting the jury's prejudice. He refuted their testimony in the cross examination but asked the jury to believe Tom's testimony.
is the book similar to the movie? or should i read the book?
It really didn't matter. They were going to convict no matter what. A black man raped a white woman. Even though the family were the worst kind of white people. Heck Tate even says at the end about Boo "he did this town a great service" by offing Bob Ewell. It was still the south, still white vs. black.
He did say that the two witnesses contradicted. Also this was two years ago xd
Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour...
how dare he question the victim
We watched that movie in my English class. We all sat there and listened to Mayella's screaming. Lol
If you want to see another movie that showcases just how great an actor Gregory Peck was, check out The Boys From Brazil.
EnemyAce88 Or Cape Fear, that's another one I love him in!
+EnemyAce88 He was absolutely remarkable with Hepburn in Roman Holiday
I would add, “ Roman Holiday” as well.
Rest well Harper Lee & Mr. Gregory Peck
Awesome acting
POV: You have to watch this clip for a test in 8th grade
Atticus Finch...an idol to all village lawyer like me. ❤👍
Seeing this play out all over again in the Kavanaugh confirmation process. Democrats there in 1962. Democrats now in 2018.
Yes, remember when discovering the flaws in her story was considered excellent and noble legal work? Now it's "judging a survivor." Sigh.
Actually the 30s
The film is still relevant in just as polarizing times as they were back then.
why do yall always have to bring politics into things?
@@absinthe4969 Book: *Is literally based on nothing but politics*
The only mistake Tom made was “I felt bad for her”(Mayella) if he didn’t say that he would’ve won the case, but I understood why Tom felt bad for Mayella, she was getting abused by her own father and r@ped at that.
Great acting
i'm really touched wiz Atticus 'integrity,humility, determination and excellence in his work....
R.I.P Harper Lee.
I remember the entire class freezing when the teacher read the N out loud
Mayella reminds me of those women that are filmed in supermarkets and stores: “You’re in America and in America you have to speak english!!!!!” Well acted.
Christine Blasey-Ford right there
I’m still mad they didn’t include Francis in the movie. 🙄
Saint Francis of Assisi
"all my muscles were totaled" I see your hand bro wtf???
My friends are all talking about how fine they think Atticus is. I came here bc I didn’t agree and wanted to know what they were on about.
okay I agree
I’m here just for Atticus... good lord that man is fine
Anyone here because they're reading To Kill A Mockingbird for fun?
One mans trash is another man's treasure 1:37
The Tom Robinson in this movie was so much better than in the book. He actually seemed disturbed, when in the book he seemed more like he didn't care all that much.
I want to see this in a Phoenix Wright ace attorney format
Kavanaugh trial un-colorized
So begins my film score creation journey.

Saw this movie once 25 years ago and i can remember every scene.
My friends call me Atticus Finch because I look like him
This has to be the only book/ movie i enjoyed reading and watching in school
Looks like Miss Mayella founded the Me Too movement.
Atticus is a dilf
