Film Description
Five films starring Gregory Peck, one of 20th Century Fox's most popular and likeable film stars, often cast as the good guy fighting injustice.
In Gentleman's Agreement (Elia Kazan, 1947), Peck plays a young journalist who poses as a Jew to write an article on anti-Semitism in America, encountering many stories of discrimination along the way. The Hollywood Reporter called it 'the most spellbinding story ever put on celluloid' and it received three Academy Awards including Best Picture.
Twelve O'Clock High (Henry King, 1949) was a deserved box office success, with its intelligent script, fine production values and a couple of excellent performances. Dean Jagger won an Oscar, Peck was nominated, as was the picture, and the film stands as a fine study of men under pressure. Peck is commanding a US bomber base in wartime Britain, and begins to crack under the responsibility.
The Gunfighter (Henry King, 1950). 'His only friend was his gun...his only refuge - a woman's heart!' Gunfighter Jimmy Ringo attempts to rebuild his marriage but his reputation precedes him and a young gunslinger decides to take him out.
The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit (Nunnally Johnson, 1956) is a search for a man's purpose in world dominated by business and material culture.
The Bravados (Henry King, 1958) is a classic Western - a tale of murder, passion and revenge in which a farmer's wife is raped and murdered, and the farmer teams up with his old flame to trail and kill the four outlaws he believes to be responsible.
