... II who had little audacity and even less hope of living in the rich, glossy world it portrayed. Gregory Peck played a magazine writer who pretends to be Jewish.

... in the quality of male actors. We simply do not have a James Stewart, Burt Lancaster, Henry Fonda, Gregory Peck, Bill Holden, or John Wayne any more, much less brilliant against-the grain actors like a Robert Duvall, Lee Marvin, Jack Palance, or a Yul Brenner, nor character actors like a Slim Pickens or a Ben Johnson.

YOU wouldn’t go to Bangkok and not take a three-wheeler tuk-tuk ride, would you? And it’d be crazy to tour the American West on anything other than a Harley Davidson. Surely my wife would see sense that when in Italy, we really should be travelling on a Vespa like Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck in Roman Holiday. Susanna, however, wasn’t to be swayed. “You’d never get me on the back of...

They’re all gone; the only ones still alive are Clint Eastwood, who now sits behind the camera most of the time, and Kirk Douglas, in his 90s and slowed down by a stroke.What all these fallen stars (with the exception of Widmark) shared was a physicality that radiated energy...

... salmon and rose-colored ceilings by Jules Guerin, the kind of Man that I so often associate with Gregory Peck, doing the things a Man does, the way he does in The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit. Of course, Gregory Peck didn't go to the Opera in the movie, and in fact such an extravagance would have been out of place in that stark tale of post-war moral compromise, as much...
