    disappointed in the movie because it left out some of the main scenes. On the other hand‚ the movie is 2 hours and 9 minutes. The movie never leaves you predicting what will happen next. Nevertheless‚ our opinions are that we favored the book over the movie. Everyone in the class notices many differences between the book and the movie. Provided that the book gives detail that the movie cannot show it is a missing part in itself. Aunt Alexandra was not even mentioned in the movie. You didn’t see Scout
