"One of Hollywood's finest achievements, To Kill A Mockingbird is truly timeless."
- Film4
"This outstanding film only gains in stature as time passes. One of the best of the 1960s."
- Leonard Maltin's Movie Guide
"Oscar winner Gregory Peck is ideal casting as Atticus, for his Lincoln-like integrity and intelligence perfectly serve the role. Peck hammers home the film's achingly authentic, timeless, and resonant plea for humanistic tolerance: The best way to understand another's problems is to get into his or her skin and walk around in it."
- Dan Jardine, AllMovie.com

- James Berardinelli, ReelViews
"Gentleman's Agreement is an important experiment, honestly approached and successfully brought off."
- TIME Magazine
"[A] brilliant and powerful film."
- Hobe Morrison, Variety
