The Movie

This week in English class we watch the To Kill a Mockingbird movie.  It was interesting take on the characters.  The only characters that I thought were correctly portrayed were Calpurnia, Atticus, Jem, and maybe Judge Taylor.  The rest of the characters were not as I pictured them in my mind’s eye.  Let’s start out with Scout.  The first time I saw her I thought it was Jem.  She looks like a little boy that has some kind if eating disorder.  She is as thin as a toothpick.  She is just bone no skin. She also has the highest and shrillest voice I have ever heard.  It is worse than finger nails on a chalk board.   Now let’s move on to Dill.  Dill looked like a horse and a beaver mated and then tried to beat there love child to death but it survived.  Heck was not as I pictured him either.  I pictured him like boss hog in smoky and the bandit.  His voice was way too high to be a sheriff.  If he tried to arrest someone they would just laugh at his ridiculous voice.  Boo Randy was also different.  He looked alike a serial killer, rapist, and or flasher.  He looked as if when he saved Jem and Scout he would take them back to his van and offer them candy.  The movie was alright I guess.  Gregory peck was amazing as Atticus.  That is the kind of man I want to be when I am older.  I have thought about this way to much.  I have a lot much free time.  I need a hobby.

  1. You do need a hobby. I was surprised you even knew what that dudes name was. And I liked your explanation of Dill. It matched him perfectly. But I didn't think the movie was good at all but oh well it's whatever you think.
