#34 on my 100 Films/100 Parodies challenge.

I would like to note that this was one of Robert Duvall's first films (The Godafther 1 and 2, Network, Apocalypse Now, The Road, etc.) and he defiantely picked a good part for him even though he never says anything.

What makes this film so rare is that the entire experience is told fromt he perspective of a little girl living in racist Alabama of The Great Depression as her father, Atticus (played by Gregory Peck who won an Oscar for his performance in this film) defends an African American who is accused of beating and raping a white woman even though proof shows that her father beat her yet, not so surprisingly, the jury, most of which friends of the man who actually beat her, deem Tom of being guilty. I won't spoil the ending for you (unless you read the book or saw this classic courtroom drama film) but it is a damn good ending.

Of course there's a small bit in the book where atticus tells his son, Jem, that he can use the gun {good parenting, eh?} and he can shoot any of the birds but not the mockingbird (foreshadow for the ending). I decided to use this little thing as the joke for this parody.

Go ahead and laugh aloud. Thanks for all your support folks.
