About Hey, Boo: Harper Lee & To Kill a Mockingbird
In this full-length documentary, Mary Murphy explores the enduring power, popularity & mystery that is Harper Lee. She interviews Oprah Winfrey, Wally Lamb Anna Quindlen, James McBride and others, and with rare cooperation from Harper Lee’s family and friends tells the story of a novel that became an American classic. In the newest edition of the film, Harper Lee from Mockingbird to Watchman, Murphy examines the rediscovered novel and its place alongside To Kill A Mockingbird.
Directed by Mary McDonagh Murphy, Hey, Boo: Harper Lee & To Kill a Mockingbird leans on a strong ensemble — Bob Mayer, Jennifer Laird, Christopher Seward — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2011.
