    Sorry, Sylvia, that I was late! Guess we won't see you until Monday on the job!

    I loved Scout's moves and grimaces at the breakfast table. The genuineness of her tomboy's disdain when forced into a dress couldn't be taught. She's a natural!

    To Kill A Mocking Bird, one of the saddest, and yet one of the most outstanding movies of all time.

    I remember watching an interview with Gregory Peck about this movie and it was mentioned that the children in the movie were not professional actors, just everyday children.

    I found this paragraph about them on the Audiophile Audition website.

    "The process of selecting and working with the child actors is an absorbing subject. They wanted real kids from the South and what a wise decision it was to use them instead of professional actors. Thousands were interviewed. Mary Badham (Scout) remained friends with Peck until his death. Always they addressed each other as Scout and Atticus. Mary Badham had no experience acting. Gregory Peck created the kind of comfortable relationship with the child actors that brought out their excellent performances."

    It was a brilliant movie and I loved Scout in it.
