Again, Lew, agree completely, and, just to clarify, I wasn't so much defending Peck (who isn't one of my favorites by a long shot), as I was Roman Holiday, which I really like a lot.
In other words, Roman Holiday might have been even greater with Grant, but it's great enough without him. Other films which might have been great with Grant, are just mediocre, or even bad without him.
