Essay / To Kill A Mockingbird Essay - 819
Hello, in this essay I will talk about my opinion about the movie To Kill A Mockingbird. The purpose would be to express my opinion on this film and let others know if this decision was good or bad. In my opinion, this movie was good because of the story it had and the message it conveyed. I will support my opinion by expressing my favorite elements of the story and scenes, some information I got online, some of my favorite quotes in the film, and the opinions of the critics. Some of my favorite parts of the movie were the glitches. and the end. The main message of the story was not to judge a person by their appearance or what society says about them, but rather by how helpful and kind they are. This message was conveyed in 2 different issues. One was that Tom Robinson, a black man, was accused of raping and beating Mayella Ewell, which he did not do, but was convicted due to Mr. Ewell's lies and his daughter Mayella. Another problem was that Arthur "Boo" Radley was not respected in the community because of the lies that were told about him. He was said to be a monstrous being with no heart, only hatred, but in reality he was a kind man who was only socially distant from his community. These core issues were intended to show that all people, no matter what society says or what they look like, should be treated fairly and with respect. This proves that this film is based on equality and that everyone should be treated fairly, especially people like Tom Robinson and Arthur Radley. This is a testament to why I think this movie is good. Some evidence I found online was that this movie received a pretty good rating of 8.7/10 and the reviews from others were all positive. For example, someone wrote: "I would say... middle of paper... it's a good movie because it tells us a good story and shows us how people were treated in the era, either because of their color or because of what. the company says about them, it got an 8.7/10 rating online, it's filled with suspense/mystery and humor, and many film critics like Owen Gleiberman and Kenneth Turan like this movie because of its history. I would recommend this film to my friends because in my opinion the story was well written and well filmed. The story had a real meaning that shows others to stop spreading rumors/gossip because it can ruin other people's lives like Arthur. The film also shows us how racist society was in the past. These are some qualities of a movie that make others want their friends to watch it. This is just a simple overview of why I would recommend this to my friends, but as the film comes to an end, so will this essay..
