Gregory Peck Dies (2 Viewers)

[Lance Nichols]

Damn

 

[Brent Bridgeman]

Creator of maybe the most "human" performance on film.

"He would be in Jem's room all night. He was there when I went to bed, and he was still there when I got up the next morning." (sorry if that's not exact)

Rest in peace.

 

[DanaA]

Never Hollywood. Always dignified. Another one of the true greats that can never be replaced.

Rest in peace my friend.

 

[Mark Bendiksen]

Wow...and just days after AFI named Atticus Finch as the greatest movie hero of all time.

Gregory Peck was the real deal. Rest in peace.

 

[Lou Sytsma]

Gregory Peck was the real deal. Rest in peace

Amen.

[Robert Crawford]

One of the great lines in cinematic history. I will miss Gregory Peck very much and so far this year, it's been a rough year with deaths of people I admired from afar.

[Nick Sievers]

Farewell Gregory - You were one of the best.

 

[Vickie_M]

Those quotes from To Kill A Mockingbird are tearing me up. I'm just sitting here sobbing. He was a favorite, a great actor and great man. I knew it was coming, but, damn.


I need to watch the original Cape Fear. My two favorite actors...

 

[ScottR]

Goodnight Mr. Finch. :frowning:

 

[Richard Kim]

Looks like I'll be watching To Kill A Mockingbird tonight.

Hopefully Turner Classic Movies will do a Gregory Peck retroscpective soon.

R.I.P.

 

[Jim Robbins]

He will indeed be missed.

 

[Dharmesh C]

Goodbye, Greg!:frowning:

 

[Gordon McMurphy]

Agh, no. :frowning:

Great, great actor. And one of few honest, unpretentious and likeable stars of all time.

Thanks for movies, Mr Peck!

:star: :star: :star: :star: :star: :star:

[Kirk Tsai]

Thanks for everything, sir.

 

[BarryS]

Very sad indeed. Mr. Peck was one of the few true legends of cinema still around. He will be missed. So long, Mr. Peck and thank you for the memories.

 

[Danny Tse]

Thank you for sharing your art with us.

RIP

 

[Scott Weinberg]

R.I.P. Mr. Peck.

Thank you for all the wonderful movies.

 

[Agee Bassett]

To me, he'll always be Brigadier General Frank Savage in Twelve O'clock High. One of the most perfectly, sublimely handled lead performances ever, in the greatest of all war films.

R.I.P.

These are all the Gregory Peck films I’ve watched so far, some of which I happen to have on DVD or VHS, as denoted. It may seem pointless listing them but I must say that doing so made me feel good, because I know that as long as I have them in my collection, the memory of Gregory Peck – one of my childhood heroes, as can be attested from the large number of entries – will never fade away. I had intended to watch a couple of German Silent Horror films on DVD over the next few days but I guess now they’ll have to make way for a mini-Gregory Peck retrospective I’ll be holding in his honor. I plan to watch my as yet unwatched DVDs of SPELLBOUND, THE GUNS OF NAVARONE, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD and the two CAPE FEAR movies, as well as throw in a few VHS tapes I haven’t watched in ages - THE YEARLING, THE MAN IN THE GRAY FLANNEL SUIT and ON THE BEACH, not to mention THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO which I’ll be watching for the first time ever.

P.S. I hope that Fox will release two of his finest movies (and performances) - TWELVE O' CLOCK HIGH and THE GUNFIGHTER - as part of their renowned "Studio Classics" collection, a treatment which they both fully deserve!
