What happened to the Gregory Peck sea captain from week 59? He retired, became an American and moved west. I just thought that would be funny since Peck's character is a retired sea captain. The next selection also has one the better casts in movie history. Chuck Connors (1) and Charles Bickford (2) are in the supporting cast. Burl Ives won an Oscar and a Globe for his role. Charlton Heston (3), Carroll Baker and Jean Simmons (4) also star. Not 'Gene' from some band called 'Kiss'. The western epic The Big Country (1958) is the popcorn eating viewing event for the week. Can you navigate a big country you have never been in before without getting lost?
(1) The Rifleman himself...
(2) Command Decision, 1948
(3) Will Penny, 1967
(4) Angel Face, 1953
