This is one of the most moving scenes in any film I've ever watched. Robert Duvall plays 'Boo' Radley, a recluse of whom the neighbourhood is afraid. He saves the life of Scout Finch (played by Mary Badham), & this is the moment when his many secret kindnesses to her bear fruit.

Also arrived yesterday, bought because it looks like fun! Each day out of 365 has an entry of relevance to acts of queer resistance that happened on that day.
