The classic book and movie are just that, classic. I wish more people would read/watch it. It truly is a book that takes its time to really delve into what it means to grow up.

So I don't think we can really say it's a different "side" of Atticus because I ultimately do not believe the two books even take place in the same fictional universe (indeed, the result of the trial that dominates To Kill a Mockingbird is a guilty verdict, but in Go Set a Watchman it states he was acquitted). It's a different "side" of Atticus in the way that The Dark Knight has a different "side" of Batman compared to The Lego Batman Movie.
