      It’s hard for me to say. Of course To Kill a Mockingbird stands out with everyone.
      I love Roman Holiday too, and it’s fun to see him in a comedy like Designing Woman.
      The William Wyler picture The Big Country always has me in front of the TV. The idea of an eastern sea Captain making it in the Wild West seems perfect for him.
      I could go on and on.

      Memories of my Papa are wonderful, despite his demanding and busy life, ensuring memorable times on the home life our family enjoyed together.

    My mother and I had the honor of meeting Gregory and Veronique Peck in 1987, as they attended a showing of one of his films, Duel in the Sun, being shown as part of a presentation honoring his contriubtion to film and the Motion Picture Industry at The George Eastman Museum in Rochester, NY. They sat next to us during the film. Yes, the two seats next to us were unoccupied when we sat down, and after the film started they came and occupied them. My mother and I looked at them in complete astonishment, and they responded simply by smiling and waving, like we were long lost friends. Somehow we mustered the courage to wave back. So we got to watch a Gregory Peck film with the star and his wife.

    I met Gregory Peck in the mid 90’s when I was working at Los Angeles County Museum of Art, LACMA, I had the honour. of returning one of the works of art he owned that was lent for an exhibition . He answered the door invited me in and chatted with me for a while and talked about his collection, I told him that he had made a great impression on me when I was a kid and growing up. I told him that the most impressionable film on me was his acting the character in the Big Country. We continued to talk about his collection and related his love of art and his purchase of a few Picasso pieces that he fell in love with and purchased in Rome when he was working on Roman Holiday. I walked away that afternoon with the memory of a great visit with a kind and great man and a fellow art lover.

    Had the pleasure of meeting him in San Diego in the early eighties. He was very kind and gracious to a group of young ladies celebrating a wedding shower in a nice restaurant. He was dining with several of his family members and we recognized him. He spoke with us, congratulated the bride to be and we were polite enough to quickly depart, expressing our love and admiration. Roman Holiday is my favorite of his films.

      ​@@JoanZeiglerYou are correct. Audrey was a victim of World War II. As a child she was often without funds and extremely hungry. She would eat weeds and plants. Some medical personnel think that may have contributed to her later GI and cancer problems. In order to help her mother financially she would assist the Allied Army by acquiring and passing intelligence information. Her bravery and desire to remain alive under horrible conditions is impressive.

    Lately when you hear about the lives and reputations of famous actors in Hollywood it's usually how they had all kinds of personality traits and issues with drugs, alcohol, or sleeping around with anyone they come across. And especially their children and friends reveal a lot of bad things and moments with their famous parents like Gary Crosby speaking about how lousy Bing Crosby was as a father or Joan Crawfords' daughter writing "Mommy Dearest" about the hellish life of having Joan as a mother. Gregory Peck has always been one of my favorite actors and felt that he was also one of the nicest in Hollywood based on what others who worked with him had nothing but good to say about Peck. He portrayed a man of character and morals in so many roles it's nice to know that he was like that for real and, like Atticus Finch, was kind and loving as a husband and father. Thank you for sharing some of these facts about Gregory Peck's life. It was very refreshing to learn about his life as a loving husband and father. He seems to be a rarity Hollywood these days.

Perhaps I'm wrong but I've seen this happen especially in Hollywood frequently. But does that signify that Gregory Peck was a "true gentleman"?

      1.: The film you are referring to, released in: 1959; with U.S. title: "Beloved Infidel"; was a fine one; Kerr was much celebrated with awards; had good box office takes; &, had an interesting idea, although Peck's performance was at the time criticized.
      Its' biggest attraction, was the rather hotly compatible mix, between: actor Gregory Peck; &, actress Deborah Kerr, as people; personally; which resulted in some very problematical issues in their private lives.
      They went on to work on 3 films together, ultimately.
      She was said to have nearly identically superb chemistry, w/: actors: Robert Mitchum; Burt Lancaster; (etc.), &, quite a few other, very big: "Screen Star Notables" of their era. It was perhaps, her most salient; &, most significant box office draw, calling card.
      She was able to accomplish this w/: a, rather notable range of men, she screen acted with; &, to repeat such, in more than just one project together, w/: the, same acting partner, in subsequent work w/: each other, later on; all of whom, were considered by many film buffs, highly attractive in their own right; &, in their own way, and, of their own times.

      In the start of: your, very 1rst sentence, or, at the frontmost head of every; &, any sentence's beginnings, you are always required in English, to obligatorily capitalize the very first letter, of the very first word.
      Thus, the way that you have written the word, in your word usage, of: "thanks"; is -->>incorrect; and - ->>should ->actually, >be >written, as: *Thanks.

    He was in 2 movies that attacked prejudice. Most everyone loves him as Atticus Finch, but in 1947 he starred in another film attacking antisemitism - "Gentleman's Agreement". It was just after WWII and based on a novel of the same name. He played a non-Jewish writer who, after seeing his Jewish friend snubbed, decided to dig deeper into this "quiet" form of bigotry. He posed as a Jew and experienced first hand what it was like. His girl friend was against it once his "religion" became known to acquaintances, etc. and she was embarrassed. It's really a good movie - a bit contrived, maybe, but still a good watch.

      That was: quiet an, interesting filmic concept; although, its' realization; &, execution could have been better.
      I think the flaws were inherently due in large part, to: a, somewhat dull screenplay writing of the, story.
      It was only saved by the fine acting turned in by most all involved.
      The writing could have been upgraded; the pacing seems likely to have been something of an issue; the, sustainability of the film's ideas, for the fill length of its' running time, may be a problematic concern; &, their are some questions as to choosing such a, varied, diverse cast for its' era, to portray such ethnically specific events in the happenings of its' story.
      Although, not entirely realistic in its' depictions, it does at least, attempt to address, such important topics as military mental health issues; bomber pilot symptoms of military duty; militsry service personnel PTSD; military service illness sufferer treatment possibilities; militsry personnel interethnic; &, inter-religious partnering; militsry serviceman more authentic forms of service related sacrifice; honor; &, dedication; military & civilian relationship dynamics; &, benefits; Etc.
      "The Purple Plain"-(1954), did garner British film industry cast award merit; but, not for its' lead: Gregory Peck; or, his romantic co-playing, female partner.
      The film was nowhere near as popular among American audiences as it was amongst British; &, Canadian ones.
      Peck's involvement in the film, for the most part, most likely evolved from his residence for tax reasons, at the time.
      Some of its' scenes depicting the legendary DeHaviland Mosquito aircraft, were staged w/: plane models, vs. using the, actual a/c.
      While flawed, in a, number of ways, it was worthy of its' being making, having been commissioned, for its' period; its' intended purposes aspired to; &, the outcomes it could've achieved.
      Whilst I truly must be in the right frame; &, mood to re-watch it; &, its' pacing at times, drags slowly; it still appeals on certain levels, despite its' now, considerable age.
      Please Note:
      Whenever naming a work of art, such as; &, including a, film; it is requisite to enclose the name of its' title, in double quotes; &, to maintain proper capitalizations.
      In this case, that would have to look like, this: "The Purple Plain".
      The highly engaging title itself was taken from a, fascinating geological phenomenon of the local area, in which the film's exact settings were scripted, as to have taken place in.

    I saw him in person when I lived in Cocoa Beach. I went to pay my rent . My very attractive landlady opened the door. I saw behind her, sitting on the couch , a shirtless Gregory Peck. He was in town shooting the movie “Marooned.” He was not faithful to his wife. Fidelity might be too much to expect from gorgeous movie stars who have women throwing themselves at them all of the time.

    "The Guns of Navarone" is my all time movie of Greg. 2nd is "The Yearling". 3rd is "Captain Horatio Hornblower". And my 4th is "David and Bathsheba". Greg was an awesome actor. One of THE greatest actors ever! The only one that I won't watch is..."To Kill a Mockingbird".
    The reason is...this movie overly used things; that simply was NOT the real South. Like the Northerners and Westerner's have never understood; what the real southern was, and why.
    Being born in the south; and then living in Chicago; I can understand why they do not know the real South. And they really did it bad; when the northerners came down south to cause "hate the whites" in the 60's! In things they had NO clue about it.
    Because they kept hearing things; like this movie, etc; that is simply NOT true. Of Course, "Gone with the Wind"; is another "make 'em hate white" movie. That was far over lies; what it really was down south back then!
    Believe it or not. And may Jesus have mercy; for LIES creating "hate white's"! And that has made this..."The lynchees have now become the Lynchors". And the "Lynchors are now the Lynchees"! Sad but oh true.
