TCM Spotlights 15 Movies by Southern Writers with Host, best-selling author John Grisham...
There's something very distinctive and compelling about Southern American Literature. Its lush settings, romantic atmosphere and touches of decadence reflect a culture that doesn't seem to exist above the Mason-Dixon line. The South has produced countless literary classics, many of which have teen transferred to film. This Wednesday night Spotlight series, hosted by best-selling author John Grisham, will focus on several of these classic films.
