Harper Lee said it was a love story; who, Scout and Boo?
The heck was Dill, chopped liver? What happened to him?
I figure he was killed in W.W.II.
I believe the love in the story is the familial love of Atticus and his children; and that neighbourly love - no mention of Calpurnia and Atticus gettin’ down and dirty, please!
Dill - who knows? He may have gone on to become a train engineer, like his father. Or was his father a spy? Maybe the poor deluded boy just ended up in a sanitarium.
That’s awful!
If I want your opinion, I’ll ask for it!
Er, wait a minute, I did…Never mind.
Carry on.
Maybe he was loved by the crazy janitor there…
Aren’t you sickos supposed to be over in MPSIMS with us?
I always feel like I’m reading her income tax return…
Harper, Lee.
Once again from “Demanton’s Unabridged Notes On ‘To Kill A Mockingbird’ The Movie”:
"In the director's cut of the movie, a previously edited scene gives us a glimpse into an unsettling, futuristic world of Techno-Color, in which......Dill has 'morphed into a street-wise Chicago gangster named Dill "Buttered Biscuit Face" Caponte. His reign of terror in the Windy City became the stuff of legend, from his scheme to corner the gray kneepants market to the string of pompous, wordy novellas that chronicled his fascination with cabooses and papier mache' hams. Eventually tracked down like a rabid dog by Elliott Gould and his band of Unmentionables, Dill Caponte lived out his last days in Shawshank prison, where he carved portraits of Vice Presidents from driftwood, and wrote pompous, wordy articles for the prison monthly, the Shawshank Reader. His death in 1957 from the effects of years of mescaline abuse hardly caused a stir in Macomb, Alabama or Chicago, two cities once entranced and enthralled by this mythical man-child."Well, there you have it.
He moved to television where he and his older brother Tommy get into wacky adventures almost every day.
Dill went on to become a flamboyantly gay author who wound up ghost-writing a novel for his friend Scout. For the rest of her life, Scout was pestered by fans of the novel wondering why she only wrote one book.
Or so the rumor goes.
FWIW, her full name is Nelle Harper Lee. From what I’ve seen in interviews, her friends and family members all call her Nelle.
Dill became a weird little kid on Star Trek with Kim Darby and Michael J. Pollard, then told it to the Spartans with Burt Lancaster.

Like many female authors of that time, she probably did it because books written by women weren’t taken very seriously. So instead, they used a more “male sounding” name.
That was Shatner’s kid. Now, I will be the first to admit that I’ve never seen them together, but she was female and Dill was male.
carnie,
Check the credits of that episode, “Miri.” John Megna was in it. I’m pretty sure that was the actor’s name.
He had funky teeth. I don’t think Shatner’s girlss had any lines. He carried one of them around during the final scene, if I recall my Starlog geek info.
Yer ever-lovin’ pal.

Dammit, everyone’s a critic.
I’m tryin’ for a little humor here, and you confuse the teeming millions with facts.
Actaully, the kid with the kunky teeth was Dick Cheney.
He had them fixed and became a famous politician.
