It says that he just died of old age-but that he went peacefully in his sleep, with his wife, Veronique, holding his hand.

Goodbye Mr. Gregory Peck. I have never seen a movie with you that I didn’t thoroughly enjoy your part in.

_Roman Holiday_ and _To Kill a Mockingbird_ have always been a couple of my most favorite movies.

I was halfway watching the TV and saw that some one, AFI (?) had named his protrayal of Atticus Finch as the #1 most liked movie protagonist of all time.

I’m looking for a link…
