week 11: to kill a mockingbird movie summary????

The movie to kill a mockingbird starts off with Mr. Cunningham giving Atticus hickory nuts as a form of payment because they were too poor during the time of the great depression. The children, Scout and Jem then meet Dill and they quickly become friends. We are then introduced to their neighbour, Mrs. Dubose. Later on, there is a sene where Atticus teaches Scout how to read. At that time, it was not very common to be able to read. After Scout and Jem go to sleep, Atticus is then approached with the offer to defend Tom Robinson and Atticus accepts this job. Scout, Jem and Dill then play with the tyre and they end up knocking into Boo Radley's house. The mischevious kids, being curious about Boo Radley, then proceed to go to the court house to see where Boo Radley is locked up. We then see Mr Ewell, the man that accused Tom Robinson of rape, threaten Atticus. Later on that day, the three children decide to sneak into Boo Radley's house to see how he looks like. Later on, Mr Radley shoots his shotgun. The next day, Scout goes to her first day at school and while at the dining table, Atticus explains the concept of "to kill a mockingbird". Later on, a mad dog is seen on the streets and Atticus shoots the dog. Helen Robinson and Atticus then meet for the first time. Jem, on the way home from school, finds  a spelling bee medal in a tree hole outside the Radley house. Jem proceeds to build his collection of stuff that he finds at the tree hole. Unfortunately, the tree hole gets covered up by Mr. Radley. Later on that night, Atticus sits outisde the place Tom Robinson is being held captive. A lynch mob shows up and so does Scout, Jem and Dill. Scout manages to defend her brother and make the lynch mob turn around. The next day, the trial for Tom Robinson starts and Tom is found guilty. While on the way to the prison, Tom Robinson is shot during an attempt to escape. Atticus and Jem both go to the Robinson's house to break the news to Helen. Mr. Ewell shows up at the house and proceeds to spit in Atticus' face. Quite some time after that, when Jem and Scout were on the way back after a halloween cotume competition, they are attacked by an intoxicated Mr. Ewell. However, Boo Radley defends the children from Mr. Ewell. The children get home safely thanks to Boo and Scout begins to see that Boo Radley is in fact not what most people say he is. Atticus then discovers that Mr. Ewell was killed and he assumes that Jem did it but soon learns that it was actually Boo Radley that killed Mr. Ewell. The sheriff decides not to reveal it to the public as it would be a sin to praise Boo for murdering someone. Scout, with unsespected maturity and intelligence then links the Boo Radley situation with the analogy of to kill a mockingbird.
