In my opinion, Mary Badham's portrayal of Scout is the best performance I've ever seen done by an actress.
Than you haven't seen many movies
That's his opinion man-she was unforgettable-I have an opinion that Lionel Barrymore is the best actor in Its a wonderful Life
@@henryjackson2357 her opinion, her choice. Stop trolling, fool
jerlan23 It was a brilliant performance and, yes, arguably the best.
@@henryjackson2357 a real idiot who`s hasn't even seen the movie,..hahah what a moron ...seriously people like you i diagnose as narcissistic ,..enjoy yourself ,..most of you people know nothing else
I read the book again just last week. Everytime Atticus speaks in the book I hear Gregory Peck's voice and I see Mr peck standing, sitting, shooting like he did in the movie.
The actors and the characters are forever one in my mind.
This movie is a classic and no one should ever attempt to remake it or colorize it. Leave it black and white.
Atticus has exited.
She looks the same, and seems like such a nice person to sit and chat with.. Timeless movie and book. A little trivia, John Badham, her older brother, directed the movie Saturday Night Fever.
Movie and book is still gold even to this year.
One of the Greatest All Time Films! It's great to hear Mary, so down to earth.
What an amazing little actress she was back then!! A superlative actress by all accounts🙏🙏🙏🙏.
To Kill a Mockingbird is the most inspiring film of ALL TIME!
It's a blessing that To Kill A Mockingbird can still inspire people today. It's certainly a most special reminder of why films have always been such an important part of our lives.
Her scene in front of the courthouse where she talks to Mr. Cunningham and diffuses the tense situation blows me away.
This is my favorite movie and I also loved the book. I think it swept you into the real world. You could just feel like you're one of the cast.
I studied the book in school which led me to originally see the film in class. To this day To Kill A Mockingbird still has so much to say about the many harsh issues that humanity struggles with.
Scout used to dress up as a ham.
I do remember that scout used to dress up as a ham.
Actually, Scout dress up as a ham only once in her lifetime - and that was for a school party sometime around Halloween - probably a "pre-Halloween" party - before Halloween was the holiday it became in the late 20th Century!!!!!!!
Jeff Schwartz how was scout when she dress up a ham?
It was for a harvest festival, probably before Halloween.
Yes It was. I saw her in the movie called kill the mucking bird.
Just watched the movie in 2019 . she's the best child actor I have ever seen
One of the BEST movies ever!
Thanks for POSTING ! This has always been one of my Favorite Movies of all time ~
One of my favorite books and movies.
An Oscar performance for certain.
She looks the same after 50 years . Wow !
Just fatter now
@@henryjackson2357 Much like your mouth.
Ya trippin
@@henryjackson2357 Be nice.
Mary "Scout" should have won an academy award.... or at least have been nominated.
She was nominated.
She was nominated for best supporting actress. And she should have won easily. Her acting in that movie was natural, convincing and totally believable. One word: WOW
Rick Leblanc So true, except that year she was up against a young actress who gave probably the greatest performance EVER by a child...Patty Duke in The Miracle Worker!
@@JHPine yeah, if it were another year (prior or after The Miracle Worker), I absolutely think she would've won the Oscar, no question
Our class was given the assignment of reading the book before I saw the movie and, when I finally did see the movie, I was struck by the fact that visual experience was absolutely identical to what I had imagined when I read the book. Obviously, Harper Lee's writing was so descriptive that the set designer saw what I imagined when reading the book. That's the mark of a talented writer. TRIVIA: Harper Lee and Truman Capote (another talented writer) were life-long friends and collaborators.
OMG HER LAST NAME IS BADHAM LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOL
Oh I get it now! Like a ham she dressed up as
oh XD
Scout is and always will be my favorite child character. Mary did so well. .. Such a golden perfect movie.
And such a good book.. The story is priceless
somebody : who's your greatest trio of all time(at anything) ?
me : JEM , SCOUT AND DILL
When year was this interview done ?
Luv the movie and the book!! She was perfect as Scout! Also terrific in This Property is Condemned and Let's Kill Uncle. Just a wonderful actress!!
Mary Badham is very beautiful, she still looks like Scout!
Love Scout
Scout Finch - the best
Enjoyed seeing her.
Just watched The Bewitching Pool episode of Twilight Zone. One of my faves.
Yes!!! Oh that one is so cool 👌
On my birthday, yay!
You were the best choice., no doubt. Very wonderful.
I can't think of another film where so many people gave such iconic performances and drew on so much emotion. And Mary Badham outdid them all. No disrespect to Patty Duke, but Miss Badham got robbed.
She is so inspiring!
One of the best performances by a child actor ever 👍
Remember when she said- "Hey Boo.."
Wonderful picture!!!
pix must be required seeing &also reading at all educational levels for depicting racism &ignorance in lowest form of human nature.
@@persiatuvim7476 Also to give a good account of the difference between racism - deliberate choice of a person to see another as less than they are, and socialized (if you will) racism - the "racism" that you have simply because it's what you hear, it's what you see, and it's what you're taught and you don't know any better or any other way to think.
We still have both kinds with us today, in all races - not just in one, contrary to what many say or would have you believe.
Perhaps more than any other novel adapted to the screen, the movie Mockingbird more accurately captured the look & feel, and certainly the character's personalities of Miss Lee's great story than any in my memory.
Mary never called Gregory Peck anything else other than "Atticus". She could never bring herself to call his "Greg" or "Mr Peck"
in high school we read to kill a mockinbird and then we saw the movie
Cute child !
I completely understand, Mary Badaham rgdsColin Scotland
Mary Badham was great, but she was up against Patty duke
which president is she talking about? President Kennedy? why are there no photos of the event?
Obama I think
Hahaha.lol.😅😅😅
Oh for Christ sake stop making everything about politics and trying to vilify George Bush.
Shut up
