I hadn't seen this documentary by Mary Murphy before so I had no idea what to expect and no expectations. One could be disappointed because Harper Lee hasn't been interviewed in something like 50 years, and Oprah Winfrey talks of meeting Harper Lee and how she discovered that Lee would never ever agree to an interview, with her or anyone else. We do get interviews with her friends, neighbors, siblings, authors and fans.
It still amazes me that Lee lived just 3 houses down from Truman Capote, who is of course is represented by the Dill boy in the book. You just never know where your friends will go.
What are the chances that two of the greatest writers of the 20th century would be neighbors in a small Alabama town?
