My husband took me to the movie at the base in Germany to watch “To kill a Mockingbird” many years ago. I didn’t like the movie, perhaps because my English wasn’t good at that time. Maybe I will either order the book or the movie from Amazon so I can either read it or watch it again
Personally I would recommend the book over the movie, although it is one of the few films that I can honestly say was an accurate portrayal of the book it’s based on. But Harper Lee is an excellent writer and the book gives you insights into the characters that couldn’t be brought out in the movie. I first read the book back in the 90’s when I was in high school and fell in love with it. I’ve read it many times since and each reading is still as wonderful as the first time.
The movie (with German dubbing) is frequently aired here in Germany - not that you would need that anymore.
