Gregory Peck was a fabulous actor, stand up man & wouldn't or couldn't admire such a man💕💕 I loved him in Roman Holiday & just about any movie he was in.
A movie about Frank Mankiewicz and the writing of Citizen Kane showed Mayer calling all of the big stars into a meeting in the heart of the depression and asked them to give up their salaries for a time, until things got better. He promised to repay them later. They agreed and he faked crying. They never got their money.
No I didn’t know he had a back injury nor three children. I am surprised that his live in girlfriend are not included in his life story ( Ursula Andress, Bo Dereck ).

Roman Holiday was nonsense; any guy with a working pecker would have been all over that Princess. People love the artificial reality.
They said Mayer was always FAKE CRYING. This was his way to manipulate his actors.
This was just early private corporate fascism that was also lost by the fifties and declared studio control theaters illegal.
Great story on Gregory Peck. Love To Kill a Moningbird

I’ve read that Louis B. Mayer could cry at the drop of a hat.
