Mr. Skinner you are a master of your craft. Every video story you produce here is worthy of an Oscar. They are always the best and very tastefully done. Thank you for this tribute about the life of one of the greatest actors to ever appear on screen.
I just stumbled on your videos today immediately subscribed and can’t stop watching. Thank you so much for your awesome dedication and hard work Mr. Skinner 🙏
Gregory Peck was so many good things. He was a magnificent man of great integrity. And a magnificent actor. He was also my hero. They don't make them like him anymore. I love you Gregory. And we all miss you. Very much.
Jerry Skinner..... I'm💯 sure I speak for all of us when I say your DOCUMENTARIES are🏆WINNING to us. Your research is unmatched & your voice is mesmerizing! ❤️
Yesterday, A young lady called to her son, "Atticus, dont run off !" I instantly thought of Gregory Peck, in the movie, To Kill A Mockingbird.... I had not heard that name in over 50 years, and I smiled instantly and told her there in the Grocery Store that " I haven't heard that name in a lot of years.. and it's a fine name he's got." She replied, thank you it was my fathers name.. I'd almost bet, that he was named after the Atticus , that Millions of US know... Thank you Jerry for the Most Perfect of timing to put this Superb video up for us! It was fantastic!
One of the greatest a tors going thankyou Jerry for doing Gregory peck he's one of my favourite actors along with Jimmy Stewart etc and great video Jerry I love how you go into detail of the person you are doing
Thank you, Jerry. He was a great man, great actor. Enjoyed this video so much. Please keep making them. I'm 80, and haven't been to a movie theatre in probably 25 years. But if they showed some of his movies again. I'd be there.
Loved this biography of G. Peck’s motion picture and awards career. You bring Peck to life and give us a greater understanding for who the actor was as a man, parent, and Motion Picture Star. Thank you Jerry and wife. Blessed be🙏⭐️💕✅
Mr. Skinner..... Again you have given your viewers a superb vlog. That Southern sounding golden voice of yours has made this vlog a real treasure. I am going to fix a cup of my best coffee and sit back and listen to this treasure another time or two.Thank you for the pleasure.
Wonderful post, Jerry. Being 65, I grew up seeing the man's films, from dramas, westerns & thrillers to his light comedies. Many fond memories, even of those who did impersonations of him. While each of us have our favorites, the film that had the greatest impact on me was "Captain Horatio Hornblower."
An iconic actor in an iconic film! To Kill a Mockingbird is playing on stage here in Vegas at the Smith Center!! There’s nothing Mr Peck starred in that didn’t turn gold! Thank you for sharing this with us and looking forward to your great work!! Happy 2023!
Y'know, I got to thinking about the distinctive voices of actors. My sister will be watching on her computer and I'll pick out the actor(s) and sometimes the film. Amazing what we remember.........Thank You, again, Jerry.
I wish you would write a book, or present a documentary about your creative process. I've been watching your videos for years, and they are consistently wonderful to see.
Jerry sir, yet once again you bring a colorful and insightful story with facts that are totally entertaining. I am a fan of Gregory Peck and you brought that all back to me again. You sir, I could also listen to all the time. Keep'em comin Jerry! Thanks again!
You produced an excellent video of Gregory Peck, Mr. Skinner ! I love Gregory Peck movies. I think he was the greatest actor ever ! Thank you for producing such a fine tribute to him. And, for taking me along....😊😊
Mr. Skinner you did an amazing job on this wonderful actor's life. Gregory Peck was one of my all-time favorite actors. I was also honored to meet you and your lovely wife a few weeks back at the nursing home in Iuka! My husband and I always are thrilled when we get a notification that you have a new documentary. May God bless you and your family.
This video is absolutely Fantastic!! Thank you Jerry so much! That book "To Kill a Mocking Bird" is one of my all time favorites and the movie was phenomenal ...
@@JerrySkinner1943 jerry, we can NOT get enough of our favorites and many that were not but learned important info about them all! keep up the good job; always enjoy listening to your voice telling us about them all. betty gordon, ames, iowa fan forever since i discovered you
Yes, Gayle, Soo true. While we watch every one of Jerry's videos.. most of all of us , seem to be pulled back and held there in that time, with popcorn and a drink... and time for Bed it's a school nite... and remembering who was watching with us. Jerry has found that magic switch , I believe, to do this to his videos. See you in the next one Gayle!
Once again Jerry you have drawn me in to your wonderful tasteful documentary. The way you speak gives us time to absorb what you're saying. I hope 2023 brings you good health & many blessings.
The best movies were made before modern technology when film makers were searching for great actors for movies and Gregory Peck stands out as one of the greatest.
One of your best, Jerry! I love your bios of legendary stars of our classic American films. A few little mistakes, though, it's Charles Bickford, not Charles Pickford, Chuck Connors, not Chuck Connor, and Jean Peters could not possibly have starred in 1958's The Big Country, as by that time she had married Howard Hughes and retired from acting; A Man Called Peter, released in 1955, was her last feature film. I think you meant Jean Simmons. I'm a Southerner myself, so I understand and relate to your wonderful drawl. My late mother was from middle Tennessee and often got a bit mixed up here and there (she'd say "punkin" for pumpkin, and "purnish" for punish - just the tip of the iceberg!) But it made her all the more lovable for us all. Keep doing what you're doing, Jerry, and don't ever change!
Jerry, as always: spectacular! You are the perfectionist and tis one made me cry. Peck was not only a great actor, but a gentleman humble and living what he believed!
@@JerrySkinner1943 I'm still hanging in there Jerry. At the age of 71 My big problem right now is what they call macular degeneration. Not fun Buddy Keith
I loved the movie and the book…it was the first book I ever read cover to cover I just couldn’t put it down. I own a copy to this day will read it again.
Jerry, what an awesome documentary. You are truly the very best. Saw this movie many times, and at times feel the tears build up. Thank you so much my dear friend. It’s always a wonderful treat to have a Jerry Skinner weekend. Please keep em coming. Augie and Jill Blase, Winter Springs, Florida.🤠
Thank you Mr Skinner for a very nicely done video about one of my favorite movies paying homage to one of my favorite actors. They just don't make them like that anymore.
Mr. Skinner, you make actors and actresses that I am not really too interested in, seem to make me interested in a new way. After listening to you speaking about them I find that I must look for their films and I now see them as interesting actors who play really great parts. Now I have a lot of fun catching up to do. Thank you very much sir.
Another excellent documentary of a great actor, Gregory Peck. I was stunned at how many epic films he starred in. So many of them were, and are still, my favorites. Thanks so much for telling his story.🌟
I thoroughly enjoyed this video as Gregory Peck was one of my favorite actors. A gentleman, with impeccable manners, handsome and that incredible deep voice. I can't imagine it will be 20 yrs since he passed away in his sleep. Excellent actor deserved every award and recognition. He also had a big heart when it came to helping others. RIP Gregory Peck left an impressive career. Thank You Jerry Skinner great work and research.
Fantastic documentary Jerry, thank you! I love watching your videos, so well researched and detailed. A little trivia/Star Trek link to Gregory Peck - his grandson Ethan Peck plays Spock in Star Trek Discovery and is a wonderful actor in his own right.
Great story on a great man. He was wonderful in to kill a mocking bird! The kids were great too. Thanks for his story. How wonderful was the rhree staying close. I have tears now.
As always, Jerry Skinner's work is well researched, and very thoughtfully presented; if there is indeed an after-life, he'll be the honored guest at a "Dean Martin MAN OF THE HOUR 'Roast', with Don Rickles' only possible comment being "oh, c'mon, can't you give me someone who at least cheats at cards?" When family's of late celebrities come across a "Jerry Skinner Presents" tribute, I hope that at least a few of them make the effort to contact Mr. Skinner - to comment directly to him, as his is some of the best work out there! My favorite Gregory Peck moment didn't involve Gregory Peck! That moment took place during the transitioning of Abe Vigoda's "Detective Phillip K. Fish" from "Barney Miller" to the Barney Miller spinoff "Fish", and involved the Steve Landesberg-portrayed character "Detective-Sergeant Arthur P. Dietrich's" interaction with the character portrayed by Barry Gordon, "Charlie", who noticed the extreme similarity "Dietrich's" voice had - to that of the long time - Screen Legend.
Jerry I already sent you a comment about this video But by the end of it I am dumbfounded by your work... Your videos are IMPECCABLE they get better by every one , thank you sir. Frank from montana.....
@@JerrySkinner1943 Jerry , I am 68 years Osborn and raised in the BRONX NY. In 1954 moved to montana in 1990. Loved it then but now at 68 I want to cry when the temp goes below 50. So after 33 years here in montana I HATE winter and snow.... Love what you do MY FRIEND. PS. You should do a video on Custer and the battle field. I live right outside of billings 50 miles from where custer died , thank you for the response.. Frank........
@@brigitteking969 Good afternoon I lived there in ft. Lauderdale from 1976 to 1982.. I was to young in my was didn't want to leave new york back then. Now I'm stuck in montana to much family to leave. I love it here but my 68 year old body hates the cold.....
One of my favorite actors. Hard to say which of his movies I like best, but "The Big Country" always comes to mind when he is mentioned. Maybe it's that scene when he and Jean Simmons are at the Hannasey canyon and Rufus asks him why he's come for her: She looks at him and he looks at her and they realize they're both in love with each other. I'm still a sucker for scenes like that one. Of course I've always been in love with Jean Simmons, so there's that too.
Your wonderful biographies are the very best and informative videos on RU-vid. They are great and so is your voice. You are so full of facts, good or bad. There were so many movies that I'll have to see. Gregory Peck was such a good actor ,with a great voice, he was very handsome too. In Duel in the Sun,or Lust in the Dust. He was so sexy playing a sexy bad boy.Gregory Peck was a hero, helping Richard Jaekel (?) get in the Motion Picture Home and hired his good friend Ava Gardner maid and take care of Ava's dog. He was too good to be alive. Thanks for your video , I really enjoyed it.
Thank you very much my friend, this was one of your best documentaries about one of the best ever actors that I have watched and as always you have done a fantastic job of working very hard to do a marvellous insight to his career and life. As always your ability to narrate and explain his story is second to none. Take care and all the best. Stevie
