To Kill a Mockingbird

In Episode 8, Alan & Nisha discuss one of the major classics of American literature: To Kill a Mockingbird.

They talk about the Pulitzer Prize-winning 1960 novel by Harper Lee, and compare it with the film adaptation released just two years later in 1962. This remains the only major adaptation of this book. How does the film deal with the large and sometimes scattershot story of its source material? How does the social commentary hold up from these works 60+ years later?
