I am studying this book for my pre-ap English class (I am a freshman) and I absolutely hated this book at first! I was so wrong because this is the best book I have EVER read and it is my all time favorite now. The movie is great to and is my favorite movie but I must say the book is MUCH better than the movie!
I agree I read the book in jr. high then we watched the movie and I thought Gregory Peck was exactly how I pictured Atticus. Actually I pictured Scout the same way too, all the actors were well cast.
Atticus isn't meant to be "perfect" in that sense. He is the definition of justice. He is equal, he is swift, and he is unrelenting. You can't have somebody who represents justice be majorly flawed in some way, even if that is realistic.
@Thelonesniper101 I'm 12 in 6th grade, & I've read "To Kill A Mockingbird" recently. Best book of all time, & the movie is also really good with a beautiful score.
Atticus Finch is the man!.Best coming of age story ever written and ever filmed.Gregory is awsome.

I read somewhere that the role of Atticus was Gregory Peck's favorite of his whole career.

Why do people like characters for being "perfect"? Well-made characters are realistic and have flaws just like everyone else.

Symbolism, friend. It's all symbolism.

scout liked to fight---so let her whoop the tar out of someone instead of being a pure sissy like the way schools try to turn modern day kids into---

Hey idiot.. It's spelled AWKWARD. And I'm not in love with Gregory Peck... I'm in love with the Atticus Finch character.
Simply because he's intellectual... but I suppose you wouldn't know what that's like would you?? Being intellectual..
