Tompkins County Public Library will host a free screening of the award-winning film “To Kill a Mockingbird,” Wednesday, September 23 from 6 to 8 p.m. in the BorgWarner Community Room-East.
The 1962 film adaptation of Harper Lee’s Pulitzer Prize-winning
novel by the same name, “To Kill a Mockingbird” is the coming of age story of
7-year-old Jean Louise “Scout” Finch and an indictment of race relations in the
deep south during the Depression Era.
The film is being shown in conjunction with the fall session of
the Library’s “4 Seasons Book Club.” The club will meet October 1 at 6:30
p.m. to discuss “Go Set A Watchman,” the recently-released novel by Harper Lee,
which visits the characters of “To Kill a Mockingbird” some 20 years later.
The Library screening is free and open to the public. The
film is intended for an adult audience.
