I would hardly call his death tragic. Besides the loss of his son (very tragic), he led a full and fruitful life. He died in his sleep, which is something I believe almost all of us would wish for ourselves.
Definitely Gregory Peck is in the top echelon of my favourite actors; to kill a mockingbird & Captain Horatio Hornblower are my favourite films. He has left us a lasting legacy of acting excellence with his portrayal of colorful characters in his great movies. William Mitchell
His son died by a self-inflicted gunshot wound to the head which is very tragic. The worst thing for a parent is to bury your child.. and this was a suicide.
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.
Such "beauties" don't exist anymore actually. I also adore "Roman Holiday". During the years I was a teacher, I read with my pupils each year "Vacances romaines". It was an edition with many pictures of the movie.
I’ll never forget 1991 when I worked for a roofer and we restored the roof on his home in the Hollywood Hills . He owned the former Mary Pickford mansion. Too bad I didn’t get to meet him but it was an honor to work on his home. Great actor
I only met Mr Peck twice, once at a school event where his granddaughter was a student. Both times, he was the essence of a gentleman. Every member of the Peck family I met was humble, kind, and gracious.
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.
He was a one in a lifetime actor, person. He left his mark on Hollywood and his family. He was the King of Hollywood. That man can act like no one business. To Kill a Mockingbird and The Big Country and Roman Holiday. To Kill a Mockingbird haunts me when I was a kid and in life, that was the dark side of racism in America. The Big Country was a rare Western movie that fits who Gregory Peck was. Very sorry about hearing of his son’s passing. He will always be remembered for being a standard of Hollywood! Thanks, RIH.
It wasn't JUST about racism. It was also about people projecting blame (the complainant) which is VERY topical today. People caught in their roles on life's stage, I could go on and on.
i think to kill a mockingbird woke me to inequality though i couldn't really understand it at the time, being a pretty young kid. my dad was a stone cold racist and it always made me uncomfortable but the mockingbird movie made my feelings clearer to myself.
The Big Country is my favourite,I think in both that and To Kill a Mockingbird he was really playing himself rather than a character.A truly great individual that made some truly great films.
I really enjoyed watching his movies. I especially liked To Kill A Mockingbird. He performed well as an attorney and as a father to Scout. You could tell he had a love for children. Such a shame he lost his first son to suicide but happily his younger son gave up alcohol and made a big turnaround in his career.
Formidable Actor and in this world unbelievably humble with it. To kill a M oking Bird, brilliant film . I think he lived his life as he portrayed his Characters, with thorough descency. How sad more people don't resemble him, both in manor and looks.
About 60 years ago, one of the first movies I ever saw in cinema was "The Guns of Navarone". For me this is still the best movie with Gregory Peck. He became instantly my favorite actor. I've seen a lot of movies since, but "The Guns" is still one of my top ten movies. Every now and then it is shown on TV and I always watch it then. Although I also have the DVD and can't get enough of watching it.
Gregory Peck never fell into a comfortable niche in his acting. He always chose different kinds of characters that stretched his acting abilities, which were considerable.
His performances in Behold a pale horse, To kill a mocking bird, The Paradine case, Roman holiday, Spellbound, Yellow sky were of highest standard. Whatever may be the movie his very presence would make the viewer energetic. Love you Gregory!!
I absolutely love the keys of the kingdom, I’ve watched it several times over the years it’s a gem. And very faithful to the book.Always without fail I cry my eyes out at his gentle performance, it’s truly one of the most moving of his films. He was so handsome and talented. He leaves a lovely legacy. RIP.
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 TH-cam. 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.
MR PECK WAS ONE OF THE VERY FEW ACTORS I TRULY ENJOYED WATCHING HIS WORK. HE IS TRULY THE MOST HANDSOME, CLASSY, GENTLEMAN EVER. HE HAD RHE MOST BEAUTIFUL VOICE. RIP MR PECK.
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.
In my opinion, To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the finest films ever made from one of the best books ever written. I also loved Gregory Peck in The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit. It is gratifying to know that he was also a man of great integrity.
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
I loved his work in "To Kill a Mockingbird" and "A Gentleman's Agreement." I did not know about his son's early death. I am so sorry that his son was suffering. I praise God that his younger son made a decision to get the help he needed. His daughter was an awesome host as she honored him in his retrospective. God Bless all the Pecks and their ancestors!
In High school we were assigned to read To Kill a Mockingbird and I fell in love with the book. I was elated to see the movie. One of the best movies ever.💞
Gregory Peck was a thoroughly decent prince of a man. Particularly loved him in Roman Holiday and TKA Mockingbird. So sorry about Jonathan. Rest in eternal peace Sir.
@@FactsVerse TBPH, I loved every scene I've ever seen him in, such was his energy and presence. However, the hand in Bocca Della Verita's mouth in Roman Holiday was a highlight. Lool. Thanks for asking.
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.
My favourite Gregory Peck movie was "Twelve O'Clock High", from the book by Beirne Lay. Peck's portrayal of the fictional General Frank Savage was, in my opinion, outstanding.
My thoughts are that Gary Cooper, Gregory Peck and Burt Lancaster were the top leading actors in the before and after the 1950's and 1960's and into the 1970's. Few actors have measured up but these 3 are the ones during that age. I don't have a favorite movie of, but I would watch everyone that they were in. They all had great movies.
I absolutely love Gregory Peck. I think my two favorite movies of his are “To Kill a Mockingbird” and “ The Keys of the Kingdom though i also love “Roman “Holiday,” Spellbound” and “The Yearling.”
My husband was Mr. Peck’s banker at First InterState. His letter of appreciation was read at my husband’s retirement party. The letter is a family treasure.
As a youngster During the 50s I looked upon GP as the ideal man and someone to emulate. His looks, hair-style, manner, and voice all added to his charisma.He was convincing, trustworthy and a role model of stability and courage. He represented the best of the50’s. ♦️♦️♦️
You don't have enough room here for me to mention all of my fave Peck movies, but Mockingbird certainly is one. Thanks to your video, I will be renting some soon.. Thanks for such a positive piece. Oh, and as a father of three sons, I too felt for him when his son offed himself; no parent should outlive their child IMHO!
Loved Gregory Peck in the Roman Holiday and The Guns of Navarone…. After the above two I was fascinated by his acting skills … I watched Mak Gold … Too good an actor and a human being … We had an amazing actor just like him in India … Dev Anand (The Indian Gregory Peck)
No actor was ever as beautiful inside as well as outside like Peck was. I still adore him. Of course my favorite movie of his was "To Kill a Mockingbird" which is a classic. I doubt it would be as good as it was without Peck in it. He had a calm, peaceful presence.
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. 🥰
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.
~~ 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.
Peck was among my favourites. Arabesque, Mackenna's Gold, Omen, How the West was Won, Old Gringo, too were marvellous. Did not know that this gentleman suffered such a tragedy. Deeply pained to learn.
he was a legend , same as marlon brandon , rock hudson , paul newman , charismatic , very good looking and with a unique and awsome personallity that knew how to transmit to their characters.
A great actor he was! I fell in love with the 2 movies he starred in - Roman Holiday and To Kill a Mockingbird. Couldnt help but watch them several times !
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
How could you not mention "12 O'Clock High" ? His stature and bearing made this an awesome movie which contains one of the best speeches ever given on film. Moby Dick is number 2, with his compelling obsession perfectly played. Don't forget " Pork Chop Hill" either !
Jocelyn Carter: My favorite movie of his was to Kill a Mocking bird. He was great in that movie. He made me feel any thing is possible as long as you have family, decency, and a moral value towards life. Loved that man! RIP.
Among many of my favourites I loved him the most in Roman Holiday. I have not seen a gentleman like him and a person as handsome as he was. May his soul rest in eternal peace in paradise….🌹❤️♥️🌷💕
Gregory Peck is still my favourite actor until now . Would like to know more about his family. He was so impressive in his acting and yes loved his voice too. Sad. RIP😥
Loved him in To Kill a Mockingbird. Captain Newman MD, The Scarlett and the Black, Keys of the Kingdom, The Big Country. Never saw one of his movies I didn’t love!
Peck was a true acting professional; so different from the many sell-centered egotists that inhabit Hollywood today. 🥰🥰🥰 R.I.P and thank-you Mr. Peck!💖💖💖
I love Gregory Peck but nobody knows the pain we go through privately. To Gregory: I am so sorry so very sorry for your loss. I have suffered a great loss in my life as well and there’s nothing anyone can say to you to make it any better!!! You love a child SO much & Yet the pain it was equally a strong is the love it seems nobody nobody can fix it. I hope you have found a God comfort you do you feel at least some of your heart and I am so very sorry for your loss, again you are a great great actor and you deserve more than just sadnesss❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Gregory Peck is one of my all time favorites, both on screen and off. He was a person of integrity, kindness, inclusion and talent. In his career, he was adept to both drama and comedy. My favorites, "To Kill a Mockingbird", of course, but also "Captain Newman, M.D.", "Designing Woman", "The Big Country", "Cape Fear" (Robert Mitchum was in that too. What a screen duo!), "Spellbound" and "Duel in the Sun". He was a baddie in that one. What could Jennifer Jones do?
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!
Gregory Peck was always one of my favourites. His most outstanding roll was definitely in To Kill Mocking Bird. However that said I enjoyed many of his other roles as well. Thank you
Gregory Peck was a great, great actor - I know, the under statement of this thread. We share the same hometown, San Diego CA. The man had such dignity and moral fiber. Of course I loved him in all the movies mentioned on this thread. Some of his other movie roles that I watch again and again... Twelve O'clock High, The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit, Pork Chop Hill, Duel in the Sun, Cape Fear where he teamed up with Hollywood bad boy Robert Mitchum and Yellow Sky where his love interest was Anne Baxter (who I just thought was a terrific actress and very easy on the eyes). It is hard to pick just one role of his which stands out to me. But whenever The Guns of Navarone is on the movie channel I drop whatever I'm doing to sit and watch it.

He looked too handsome and the scar enhanced his appeal which is not what it should have done.
In my opinion, To Kill a Mockingbird is one of the finest films ever made from one of the best books ever written. I also loved Gregory Peck in The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit. It is gratifying to know that he was also a man of great integrity.

No actor was ever as beautiful inside as well as outside like Peck was. I still adore him. Of course my favorite movie of his was "To Kill a Mockingbird" which is a classic. I doubt it would be as good as it was without Peck in it. He had a calm, peaceful presence.
Congrats to Tony Peck.
What you did was very far from easy!
God Bless You!
Thanks for watching, Conrad!
@@FactsVerse I love his movies to kill a mockingbird and keys to the kingd8
In the history of acting and performing he's easily one of the top ten male actors.
Thanks for watching!
@@FactsVerse Your welcome. I've been a fan for a long time. Always interesting.
An extremely gifted Actor RIP to a LEGEND.
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. 🥰
"To Kill a Mockingbird" was great and probably my favorite, however, I really enjoy his movie, "Captain Horatio Hornblower" as well.

To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my all time favorite movies.📽🎬🎞
He was such a gorgeous man
Thanks for watching, longbranch!
He was a top shelf actor. One of the best. Sounds like his life wasn't tragic
One Of My Favorites! Met him in the pouring rain & he signed my book! He was a very special soul in my observation-
Thanks for watching, R!
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.
I don't think he ever made a bad film....his performance in 12 o'clock high was superb
Thanks for watching, Christopher!
~~ 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.
Peck was among my favourites. Arabesque, Mackenna's Gold, Omen, How the West was Won, Old Gringo, too were marvellous. Did not know that this gentleman suffered such a tragedy. Deeply pained to learn.
he was a legend , same as marlon brandon , rock hudson , paul newman , charismatic , very good looking and with a unique and awsome personallity that knew how to transmit to their characters.
One of my favorites..."Gentleman's Agreement".
Hornblower was great too!!
Thanks for watching!
Guns of Navarone.."...you're in it now...up to your neck!"
To kill a Mockingbird is my favorite film with Gregory Peck, he was Atticus Finch, I can't imagine any other actor in that role.
Thanks for watching!
One of the greatest actors of all time, I liked him in Roman Holiday as his best performance.
Thanks for watching!
To Kill A Mockingbird. Saw the movie several years after reading the book in high school.
Thanks for watching, Debra!
A great actor he was! I fell in love with the 2 movies he starred in - Roman Holiday and To Kill a Mockingbird. Couldnt help but watch them several times !
I always thought Gregory was such a handsome man.
Thanks for watching, Tamera!
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
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 👍.
How could you not mention "12 O'Clock High" ? His stature and bearing made this an awesome movie which contains one of the best speeches ever given on film. Moby Dick is number 2, with his compelling obsession perfectly played. Don't forget " Pork Chop Hill" either !
Jocelyn Carter: My favorite movie of his was to Kill a Mocking bird. He was great in that movie. He made me feel any thing is possible as long as you have family, decency, and a moral value towards life. Loved that man! RIP.
Thanks for watching, Jocelyn!
Among many of my favourites I loved him the most in Roman Holiday. I have not seen a gentleman like him and a person as handsome as he was. May his soul rest in eternal peace in paradise….🌹❤️♥️🌷💕
Loved all his performances! My favorite was his portrayal of Lieutenant Joe Clemmons, in "Pork Chop Hill!"
To Kill A Mockingbird was truly my favorite. Gregory Peck was outstanding!
My favorite: Roman Holiday.
You can’t get any better than Gregory Peck and Audrey! My two favorites.
I can't understand the title of this video. "The Tragic Death of Gregory Peck". As far as I know his death was not tragic. Was in his sleep
Peck had it all. Wonderful man and actor. His voice was extraordinary.
Gregory Peck is still my favourite actor until now . Would like to know more about his family. He was so impressive in his acting and yes loved his voice too. Sad. RIP😥
I can still hear his superb voice. Wonderful all around Gentleman.
Such a good actor. His death was a great loss for his followers and for Hollywood.He has left us with great memories. R.I.P
Loved him in To Kill a Mockingbird. Captain Newman MD, The Scarlett and the Black, Keys of the Kingdom, The Big Country. Never saw one of his movies I didn’t love!
The Million Pound Note...No 1
Roman Holiday....No.2
To kill a Mocking bird...No.3
RIP Gregory P. 🙏
Thanks for watching, Neutral 69!
Peck was a true acting professional; so different from the many sell-centered egotists that inhabit Hollywood today. 🥰🥰🥰 R.I.P and thank-you Mr. Peck!💖💖💖
Watched THE MILLION POUND NOTE, today, brilliant, great man, 👍
Thanks for watching!
Although I loved all of Gregory Peck’s films my favorite was Moby Dick.
Thanks for watching, Gregory!
I love Gregory Peck but nobody knows the pain we go through privately.
To Gregory: I am so sorry so very sorry for your loss. I have suffered a great loss in my life as well and there’s nothing anyone can say to you to make it any better!!! You love a child SO much &
Yet the pain it was equally a strong is the love it seems nobody nobody can fix it. I hope you have found a God comfort you do you feel at least some of your heart and I am so very sorry for your loss, again you are a great great actor and you deserve more than just sadnesss❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Thank you so much for your beautiful message to Gregory Peck. What other types of videos would you like to see on our channel?
Wow! Just watched To Kill a Mockingbird. My favorite is the Yearly and Roman Holiday as well!😃
Thanks for watching, Mama Sharon!
It will always be his portrayal of Atticus Finch for me. Superb.
Thanks for watching, Linda!
Actually he did win the oscar for " To Kill a Mockingbird.
Gregory Peck is one of my all time favorites, both on screen and off. He was a person of integrity, kindness, inclusion and talent. In his career, he was adept to both drama and comedy. My favorites, "To Kill a Mockingbird", of course, but also "Captain Newman, M.D.", "Designing Woman", "The Big Country", "Cape Fear" (Robert Mitchum was in that too. What a screen duo!), "Spellbound" and "Duel in the Sun". He was a baddie in that one. What could Jennifer Jones do?
Thanks for watching!

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!
Gregory Peck was always one of my favourites. His most outstanding roll was definitely in To Kill Mocking Bird. However that said I enjoyed many of his other roles as well. Thank you
Thanks for watching!
all of his works as an actor.Most of all,my choice was, KEYS of the Kingdom. Dolores Ott
12 o’clock high is one of my favorites
HIS acting and command in GUNS of NAVRONE is very impressive! SAME in MACKENNAS GOLD too!
Gregory Peck was a great, great actor - I know, the under statement of this thread. We share the same hometown, San Diego CA. The man had such dignity and moral fiber. Of course I loved him in all the movies mentioned on this thread. Some of his other movie roles that I watch again and again... Twelve O'clock High, The Man in the Grey Flannel Suit, Pork Chop Hill, Duel in the Sun, Cape Fear where he teamed up with Hollywood bad boy Robert Mitchum and Yellow Sky where his love interest was Anne Baxter (who I just thought was a terrific actress and very easy on the eyes). It is hard to pick just one role of his which stands out to me. But whenever The Guns of Navarone is on the movie channel I drop whatever I'm doing to sit and watch it.
