Title: "To Kill a Mockingbird" for adults
Product review: Gripping story, invigorating characterizations, inspiring heroine set in a time when frontier law was harsh, to say the least. I particularly liked Portis' use of contemporary mannerisms in speech to provide a context far different from the usual western. He also faithfully rendered the geography of the area in which the story is set. I read the book twice, despite having seen both versions of the movie. The Cohen brothers were much more sympathetic to Portis' intent than Hal Wallis.
