Gregory Peck RIP

Post by Admiral Valdemar »

Just heard that Gregory Peck, whose previous roles involved a recently top voted hero Atticus Finch, has just passed away. He was 87.

The loss of another great acting legend befalls us all.

Very sad. All the silver-screen greats will be gone soon, I doubt any future(or current) generations will have their stature.

I believe a quote from To Kill a Mockingbird is appropiate here.

It seems fitting that one of the uni theatre groups is doing a play of "To Kill A Mocking Bird" this month.

He had a full long life, living to the age of 87, and made many great films. Goodbye.

Mr. Peck, you will be missed.
And you may ask yourself, 'Where does that highway go to?'
