Gregory Peck won an Oscar for his
brilliant performance as the Southern lawyer who defends a black man accused of
rape in this film version of the Pulitzer Prize winning novel. The setting is a
dusty Southern town during the Depression. A white woman accuses a black man of
rape. Though he is obviously innocent, the outcome of his trial is such a
foregone conclusion that no lawyer will step forward to defend him--except Peck,
the town's most distinguished citizen. His compassionate defense costs him many
friendships but earns him the respect and admiration of his two motherless
children.
