Today’s Guilty Pleasure is an oldie, but goodie – Gregory Peck.
It’s funny really. We were just talking about TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD the other day and this weekend what was on – TO KILL A MOCKINGBORD as well as CAPOTE. Watched the first (for which Peck won the Oscar), but fell asleep during the latter(because I was tired and not because it wasn’t a good movie! Note that Hoffman won the Oscar for his portrayal of Capote). Why the connection between the two? Harper Lee, the author of Mockingbird was good friends with Capote and assisted him while he was working on IN COLD BLOOD.
But back to Peck. I always found Peck to be so masculine and handsome. Very refined as well. Even when he was older, as in THE OMEN he had presence on the screen.
How about you? What’s your favorite Peck movie?
“Spellbound” is my favorite Gregory Peck movie. It’s another great Hitchcock movie.

The first movie of course is the tearjerker, “The Yearling” and the 2nd is “The Big Country” with sweeping landscapes and some really convincing cowboys…..

This is my favorite part of Monday’s, the Guilty Pleasure post is fun to look forward to weekly!

One fine man to look at.
A Gentleman’s Agreement is also a terrific movie.
Check that one out.
Definitely To Kill a Mockingbird. You have the perfect description: refined. The man is just so truly handsome. Sigh. 🙂
