Gregory Peck

Role: 

Other People's Money

A man is known by the company he keeps. Lawrence "Larry the Liquidator" Garfield is known for the companies he gets rid of. Danny DeVito hilariously deals, connives, wheedles and cajoles as Wall Street buccaneer Larry in this high-yield comedy directed by Norman Jewison (Moonstruck) and based on the hit off-Broadway play. Larry's never met a debt-free corporation he didn't want to devour but he may think twice about New England Wire & Cable. Its ramrod like patriarch (Gregory Peck) has been a fighter all his long life.

To Kill A Mockingbird

Ranked 34 on the American Film Institute's list of the 100 Greatest American Films, To Kill a Mockingbird is quite simply one of the finest family-oriented dramas ever made. A beautiful and deeply affecting adaptation of the Pulitzer Prize-winning novel by Harper Lee, the film retains a timeless quality that transcends its historically dated subject matter (racism in the Depression-era South) and remains powerfully resonant in present-day America with its advocacy of tolerance, justice, integrity, and loving, responsible parenthood.

The Guns Of Navarone

This rousing, explosive 1961 WWII adventure, based on Alistair MacLean's thrilling novel, turns the war thriller into a deadly caper film. Gregory Peck heads a star-studded cast charged with a near impossible mission: destroy a pair of German guns nestled in a protective cave on the strategic Mediterranean island of Navarone, from where they can control a vital sea passage.

The Omen

When Kathy Thorn (Lee Remick) gives birth to a stillborn baby, her husband Robert (Gregory Peck) shields her from the devastating truth and substitutes an orphaned infant for their own - unaware of the child's satanic origins. The horror begins on Damien's fifth birthday when his nanny stages a dramatic suicide. Soon after, a priest who tries to warn Damien's father is killed in a freakish accident. As the death toll mounts, Robert realizes his son is the Antichrist and decides he must kill the boy to prevent him from fulfilling a cataclysmic prophecy.
