finishing up The First Omen (good, enjoyed it) and have to pause and say that there's a real quick shot of a 50-year-old Gregory Peck's polaroid towards the end and like.... the amount of sex appeal 1 second of Gregory Peck (who has been dead for over 20 years RIP) added to this film... is an indictment on the expectations we have of actors at the moment.....
#romance novel blogging#whole body 'DADDY?' reaction#and the omen era gregory peck wasn't even the blindingly hot roman holiday era gregory peck#AND. YET.#he was 6'2" his voice was as deep as the ocean and richard nixon considered him an enemy due to his politics#*adam driver wall punch*#also i googled him to double check my recollections of his politics before making this tipsy post#and i'd like to say that one of the funniest things i found was an article lamenting the lack of 'masculine pro-life men' on a catholic sit#and it cites past macho men like john wayne... and gregory peck...#and gregory peck legit practiced catholicism for the culture and said in the same interview that his issues w the church#pertained to among other things...#... ABORTION#my brothers in christ (literally) he was pro-choice#ANYWAY.
