Horton Foote — March 14, 1916 – March 4, 2009

American playwright and author Horton Foote died, March 4, 2009.

Best known for his screenplay for the 1962 film To Kill a Mockingbird, Foote will always be remembered by me as the man who wrote The Trip to Bountiful (1962).

I watched the movie adaptation of The Trip to Bountiful with my mother, it was a movie we both enjoyed immensely and one that I will in the future watch with a heavy heart because of the shared experience of having first watched it with her and knowing how much she enjoyed it.
