The Gregory Peck Film Collection (To Kill a Mockingbird | Cape Fear | Arabesque | Mirage | Captain Newman, M.D. | The World in His Arms)
 An Academy Award winner and AFI Life Achievement Award recipient, Gregory Peck embodies all of the traits of a Hollywood leading man: distinguished, worldy and confident. Now, for the first time ever, 6 of his most memorable films are available together in The Gregory Peck Film Collection. See the beloved actor in some of his most daring roles in To Kill A Mockingbird, Cape Fear, Arabesque, Mirage, Captain Newman, M.D. and The World in His Arms. Featuring co-stars Sophia Loren, Anthony Quinn, Walter Matthau and Robert Mitchum, The Gregory Peck Film Collection showcases one of the greatest actors of all time at his best. To Kill a Mockingbird Gregory Peck received an Academy Award for his brilliant portrayal of the courageous Atticus Finch, a white Southern lawyer who puts his career on the line to defend a black man. Cape Fear The worst nightmare of a small-town lawyer (Gregory Peck) comes true when a criminal (Robert Mitchum) he helped put in jail returns to stalk his beautiful young wife and teenage daughter. Arabesque Gregory Peck and Sophia Loren star in this high-speed, high-class romantic thriller about a professor who finds himself in a race for his life after deciphering a mysterious secret message. Mirage A bewildered accountant (Gregory Peck) struggles to recover his memory with the help of a detective (Walter Matthau) and understand why he’s surrounded by danger, deception and murder. Captain Newman, M.D. Gregory Peck leads an all-star cast (Tony Curtis, Angie Dickinson, Eddie Albert, Bobby Darin) in a realistic look at life and love inside a military hospital’s psychiatric ward during World War II. The World in His Arms A swaggering sea captain (Gregory Peck) sets sail – amid gale force winds and treacherous seas – on a harrowing race to rescue his lady love and beat his longtime rival (Anthony Quinn).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. It’s tempting to call this an important “message” movie that should be required viewing for children and adults alike, but this riveting courtroom drama is anything but stodgy or pedantic. As Atticus Finch, the small-town Alabama lawyer and widower father of two, Gregory Peck gives one of his finest performances with his impassioned defense of a black man (Brock Peters) wrongfully accused of the rape and assault of a young white woman. While his children, Scout (Mary Badham) and Jem (Philip Alford), learn the realities of racial prejudice and irrational hatred, they also learn to overcome their fear of the unknown as personified by their mysterious, mostly unseen neighbor Boo Radley (Robert Duvall, in his brilliant, almost completely nonverbal screen debut). What emerges from this evocative, exquisitely filmed drama is a pure distillation of the themes of Harper Lee’s enduring novel, a showcase for some of the finest American acting ever assembled in one film, and a rare quality of humanitarian artistry (including Horton Foote’s splendid screenplay and Elmer Bernstein’s outstanding score) that seems all but lost in the chaotic morass of modern cinema. –Jeff Shannon Cape Fear Superior to Martin Scorsese’s punishing 1991 remake, this 1962 thriller directed by J. Lee Thompson (The Guns of Navarone) stars Robert Mitchum as a creepy ex-con angry at the attorney (Gregory Peck) whom he believes is responsible for his incarceration. After Mitchum makes clear his plans to harm Peck’s family, a fascinating game of crisscrossing ethics and morality takes place. Where the more recent version seemed trapped in its explicitness, Thompson’s film accomplishes a lot with a more economical and telling use of violence. The result is a richer character study with some Hitchcockian overtones regarding the nature of guilt. –Tom Keogh

The Guns of Navarone
Product Description
Explosive action film about allied commandos during world war ii plotting to destroy german guns. Special features: directors audio commentary four original featurettes subtitles in english spanish portuguese chinese korean and thai talent files theatrical trailer production notes and much more. Studio: Sony Pictures Home Ent Release Date: 12/21/2004 Starring: Gregory Peck Anthony Quinn Run time: 157 minutes Rating: PgAmazon.com
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. As world famous mountain climber turned British army Captain Mallory, Peck leads a guerrilla force composed of the humanistic explosives expert, Miller (David Niven), the ruthless Greek patriot with a grudge, Stavros (Anthony Quinn), veteran special forces soldier Brown (Stanley Baker), and the cool, quiet young marksman Pappadimos (James Darren). This disparate collection of classic types must overcome internal conflicts, enemy attacks, betrayal, and capture to complete their mission. Director J. Lee Thompson sets a driving pace for this exciting (if familiar) military operation, a succession of close calls, pitched battles, and last-minute escapes as our heroes infiltrate the garrisoned town with the help of resistance leader Maria (Irene Papas) and plot their entry into the heavily guarded mountain fort. Carl Foreman’s screenplay embraces MacLean’s role call of clichés and delivers them with style, creating one of the liveliest mixes of espionage, combat, and good old-fashioned military derring-do put on film. In 1978, the sequel Force 10 from Navarone was released, but MacLean fans will prefer to check out the action-packed thriller Where Eagles Dare. –Sean Axmaker
