Film
Gregory Peck at Pacific Film Archive
Dapper gentleman and UC Berkeley alum Gregory Peck will come to life onscreen at his alma mater. The soft-spoken English major graced the stage at Cal's Little Theater before going on to star in more than fifty films, becoming an iconic figure much like Cary Grant and Gary Cooper. Now you have the chance to catch him on the big screen in his big hits as Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird and as Joe Bradley in Roman Holiday. Or see him for the first time in The Snows of Kilimanjaro and The Man in the Gray Flannel Suit.
