He got his start acting performing in over fifty stage plays including three Broadway productions. After making the jump from the stage to the screen, Peck enjoyed a thriving career in film appearing in hit films like Cape Fear, The Boys of Brazil, The Sea Wolves, The Omen, and Roman Holiday. He was an incredibly talented actor who had a dynamic range. He could play virtually any type of character that a producer wanted him to, but he was well-known for portraying leading men with high moral fiber.
Peck won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his riveting performance as Atticus Finch in the 1962 film adaptation of To Kill a Mockingbird.
Even though Peck enjoyed a full and fulfilling career in the entertainment industry, he also experienced quite a bit of adversity and peril in his life. One event in particular that devastated Peck beyond works was the sudden and tragic death of his son, Jonathan. We'll discuss that heartbreaking chapter of his life - among other difficult periods of his life - in this facts-filled video.

Absolutely adored him in Roman Holiday. That last scene in the embassy he seemed to be waiting for that door to reopen. The look on his face when it didn’t was crushing. His character resigned himself to the fact that she could never come back and that he must move on with life. He acted that scene beautifully. I’ve seen that film at least 20 times and I always shed a tear at the end. I met him and Veronique at a Broadway opening - a truly handsome couple and still in love in the early 2000s by the way they stood together. He will always be my “Man Crush.” He played gentlemen very well without cookie-cuttering the roles. Each unique in their own way. Rest In Peace, Greg.

My family and I got to meet and talk with Gregory several times when he was making a movie in my husband's hometown in 1970. He was there for days. It turned out to be a terrible movie. However, Gregory was always willing to talk with the townspeople, have photos made with them and was gracious in every way. He was kind to everyone! After all the attention he inevitably got because of his celebrity, this is a indication of his character.

I was not aware of how Gregory Peck died, so was somewhat perturbed when I first read the title of this video. It’s August 2022, I’m 77 and have rediscovered a number of his movies on KZfaq. As my Dad would have said “He was a lovely man” probably the greatest complement he would make. Given his incredible achievements throughout his life and the fact he was an octogenarian dying in his sleep I’m guessing that’s the way he would have wished to pass. Thank you.

Gregory Peck's appearance in films commanded fabulous attention. He made a permanent niche in the hall of fame which very few could emulate. His candour and want of any overreaching through histrionic and his calm presence, very much restrained, made him extraordinary. His life was fraught with tragedy. We wonder how such a man of peerless stature could face such turmoil. His faith in God primarily was unshaken always. May the Soul of the Great Actor a legend for all times, find an everlasting peace that "passeth all understanding" in the words of John Milton in Paradise Lost

Didn't Gregory Peck divorce his long time wife after he was interviewed by his last wife Veronique, a French woman who worked for Paris Match magazine. They fell "in love", Gregory divorced his wife and the day after the divorce, he married Veronique. Does that make him a "thoroughly decent prince of a man"? Because he always portrayed decent characters on film doesn't make him necessarily one himself.

I thought he was incredible in The Yearling, but it was too sad for me to watch over and over, as I did with Roman Holiday. Movies don't often show the development of someone falling in love - but Peck made it believable, and the last scene where he's just watching her as she walks away breaks my heart every time. I also liked him a lot in Gentlemen's Agreement. Somehow he managed to climb into his roles completely, and yet his connection to his audience came through from Peck the man, I think.

"To Kill a Mockingbird" was great and probably my favorite, however, I really enjoy his movie, "Captain Horatio Hornblower" as well.

So many great roles are associated with Mr. Peck. My favorites tend to go against type like Duel in the Sun, Arabesque, Moby Dick, and Designing Woman, but of course the one that I think defined his type as an actor Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird; and his work in Gentleman's Agreement. He will always be remembered through those films, what came from him and into the camera. He was a rare one.

Gregory Peck was an actor with extraordinary acting talent. All his films are worth to be seen again and again. His acting in movies like THE SNOWS OF KILIMANJARO, GUNS OF NAVARONE, MACKENNAS GOLD, TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD are exemplenary. God has given him inimitable sharp looks

It is too hard to pick one movie. He was so handsome and elegant. When he portrait a bad character roll, I didn't care for it, but his acting was always good to excellent! Actors like him, don't exist anymore. We miss him and others of his time.

A long time fan from India. Awesome insight in Gregory's life you have given! I loved Roman Holiday and Guns of N the most, also Omen 👍.

as a really young kid - 6 or 7 years, i fell in love with Gregory Peck. the dark handsome looks.. the noble deep voice. his old movie images still make me go weak kneed. isn't it great to know he was as noble off camera as on...

Gregory Peck”s performance in To Kill a Mockingbird was the quintessential actor that was raised in the studios. The actors/actresses reflected the values and the dreams of all Americans struggling to make a good life. He reflected the deep seated values of all Americans. Hollywood has lost that grounding and no one really pays attention to their movies, nor will they reminisce about them in the future. I hope Hollywood can recruit actors like Gregory Peck, who protect the solemn values of Americans again.

I've always been a huge fan of his work - with Mockingbird standing alone at the top of mountain! In addition to many of the films mentioned here, I never miss Captain Newman, M.D., The Big Country, and How the West Was Won. There is a scene in that last film with him riding a little donkey. Those ridiculously long legs were sticking out on either side of him because if he put them down they would drag along the ground. I don't know why that image always sticks in my mind, but I love it! Unlike the endless strings of "celebrities" we have now, Gregory Peck was a real MOVIE STAR. They don't shine much brighter than he!

~~ no animal rights laws back then ..did they kill deers in the yearling? Too too much manipulative sentimental gimmicks in that piece of crap ... no acting required, just make em cryby killing an innocent critter . The rest of his work passed .

I agree that he was generally good but only so when cast as men of integrity.He was badly miscast as F.Scott Fitzgerald in ‘’Beloved Infidel” which was a pity as it detracted from Deborah Kerr”s excellent performance.

What a gifted actor Gregory Peck was! It is hard to choose just one of his many excellent works, but if I had to, "Roman Holiday" would be my top choice. As a bonus: it has my other favorite: the angelic Audrey Hepburn. 🥰

Gregory performed top class in Roman Holiday, To kill a mockingbird, Guns of Navarone and of course McKennas gold to name a few of his classic performances. The video was very well presented. Well done, you did justice to a legend.
