Margaret and I saw Ed Harris as Atticus Finch in Aaron Sorkin’s To Kill A Mockingbird on Saturday. If you have the opportunity to see it, then please do so. It is simply extraordinary.
Whether you have read Harper Lee’s book and/or seen Gregory Peck’s film portrayal matters not. Familiarity with the story is not a condition precedent to being mesmerized by the play. The performances are uniformly excellent. And there are not many better ways to pass a couple of hours than watching talented actors give voice to Aaron Sorkin’s words. If you have ever watched A Few Good Men or an episode from the first several seasons of The West Wing or Newsroom then you know what I mean.
