Passages from my work. by Harper Lee' To kill a mockingbird' I confess that I have very complex and inexplicable feelings for black-and-white movies. On the one hand - something archaic and outdated in some places with strange dynamics, unfamiliar rules and mysterious work of operators. On the other - for the same reasons, more involving. In spirit and atmosphere - this movie has almost no equal. So this film is very atmospheric. Not enough that, it was shot in the 60-ies, so also it tells the story of 30-ies. It turns to be a classic work twice. When you cannot hit the audience with special effects and rich decorations painted on the computer, you have to deal with what you have. Performance of the actors, costumes, and dialogues- all these are very good. And you really believe in the actors play… Did you know that the mockingbird using his singing often imitates not only the singing of other birds, but sounds are heard near his home - clucking hen, a dog barking, the creaking of a cart or a postman whistle sound? And he does it brilliantly! But not only this makes people love the mockingbird. The bird is sociable and trusting by nature and sometimes makes its nest in the bush right next to the entrance to the house. In general, the mockingbird is an absolutely harmless bird. **** What is his secret? Actually there is no secret. Atticus just raising his children by his own example, his own life. And if he says that you must not humiliate the weak, the children see that the father would never allow himself to speak in the scornful tone with the man below his social ladder. If the father explains why lie is bad, children are sure that their father would never lie. If the father shows that one must be able to defend his position, if you truly believe in your rightness, the son and the daughter see Atticus does this every day at work, ignoring the angry shouts of the crowd and not being afraid of threats. If times are tough, the father takes responsibility for the life of another person, self-feeding protects unjustly accused black man, his client. The children stand next to him at night in front of a crowd of angry drunken men with rifles in their hands, ready to sweep away all in their path. And even this crowd gives way to Atticus and the kids. Because he believes he is right, he is calm, and therefore internally much stronger than all of those who came to hold a Lynch’s trial.
