There is a story that in 1970 efforts were made to adapt To Kill a Mockingbird as a musical, starring Don Murray, but the rights could not be obtained and the project was abandoned. (Whew!)
"Some stories don't have a clear beginning, middle, and end. Life is about not knowing, having to change, take the moment & making the best of it, without knowing what's going to happen next. Delicious ambiguity."
-Gilda Radner
