The man accused of shooting a black girl, a storekeeper named Paris Trout, has no great feeling of guilt, nor any fear that the system will fail to work his way. Trout becomes an embarrassment to the polite white society that prefers to hold itself high above such primitive prejudice. But the trial does not allow any avoidance of the stark reality of social and racial tensions.

I saw the movie many years ago and though it was harsh and tragic it was better than the book, oddly enough. I chose the book because I thought I would get more of the back story but that was not the case they were totally mismatched.
Not what I expected
