I truly don't want to argue, but how is it he came to live with grandparents rather than with his mother? I cannot believe MY mother would have ever allowed such a thing. The issue wasn't money. What was the reason? And why was his loving mother seemingly divorced from her loving parents? Why does he show such disdain for w****s (he IS ashamed of being mulatto, isn't he?), and why is his Attorney General only interested in h**e crimes against b****s? Is he indicating he knows b****s don't "h**e", even when they threaten and k**l FAR more often than w****s? I'm not trying to fight. I am trying to understand where your thinking comes from. I think you do a lot of talking without knowing what the facts are.

As to the two movies you mentioned, I can assure you neither of them is one I want to see again - entirely too depressing. I h**e depressing movies. I like realistic movies, but not if they are depressing. My government depresses me exceptionally well and I don't need to add insult to injury.

I have heard many comments, in my life, about "Guess Who's Coming to Dinner?" and "To K**l a Mockingbird". I have never heard anyone refer to them as depressing. "Mockingbird" is one of the most beloved books of the 20th century and is now required reading in so many high schools throughout this nation. BTW, people from all over the world come to see Harper Lee's hometown in rural Alabama. She only wrote one book but has become a genuine literary hero and is much beloved. BTW, she still makes $4,000,000 a year for a book written in the early 60s. Not too shabby for such a depressing work of literature.
