  WSR Narrative Review
Story Synopsis:
Based on the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird received three Academy Awards

DVD Picture:
The black and white picture is wonderful on this anamorphically enhanced 1.85:1 DVD, with an exceptional gray scale. Images are sharp and detailed, with excellent contrast and shadow delineation. Certainly, as expected for a movie of over 40 years old, some dirt, film grain, and minor scratches are noticed in the source element, but nothing that is too much of a distraction. (Suzanne Hodges)

Soundtrack:
This newest DVD release of the classic film includes new Dolby
