Johnny Simmons

So yesterday, I went to the video store with my nephew. He wanted Dora, or Diego or some other weird children's film. Anyways, I'm looking through the classics section and this guy starts talking to me. People tend to do that to me often, it is not cool! He says he's a film enthusiast etc, asks me what I like, what movies are good, and the usual. I happened to have a copy of To Kill A Mockingbird in my hand so I say, "This is a good film. Gregory Peck is good in this." He looks at the DVD his eyebrows furrowes. "Hmmmm. Never heard of this one before..."

WTF? Call me an intellectual snob if you will, but seriously? This man has to be over 50 and he's never heard of To Kill A Mockingbird or Gregory Peck or Harper Lee. I swear to God, stupid people seek me out. I mean in this messed up world it's rare if children know about this story, but an adult...almost a senior citizen? Absolutely criminal.

Please tell me you know what To Kill A Mockingbird is? Or at least tell me you heard about it?
