Big they fought! big they loved! big their story! Studio: Tcfhe/mgm Release Date: 05/13/2008 Starring: Gregory Peck Chuck Connors Run time: 167 minutes Rating: Nr Director: William Wyler
Amazon.com essential video:
William Wyler directed this epic Western, about the clash of East and West, intellect and action. Gregory Peck stars as a sea captain who moves way out West to marry Carroll Baker and become part of the ranch owned by her father (Charles Bickford). But he discovers that daddy's top hand (Charlton Heston) carries a torch for Baker and doesn't particularly like Peck stepping into his place. Peck also finds himself caught in the midst of a power struggle between Bickford and his surly neighbor, Burl Ives (and his reprehensibly bullying son, Chuck Connors). This long, sprawling tale works because its characters are played by movie stars who know how to command the big screen in a big story. --Marshall Fine

I really enjoy old movies, and watched "The Big Country" about a year ago. It recently dawn on me to go ahead and purchase it through Amazon. I received the movie very quickly and appreciated the service.
Thank you very much!

It has a great story, good character building rolls, and Gregory Peck is as good as ever. I would recomend this movie to anyone who enjoys with some depth and good morals. For young and old alike.

Great cast..Burl Ives won an oscar. Gregory Peck is absolutely grand in this movie. Jean Simmons is beautiful as always. Has some humor and seriousness to it. An excellent love story and drama all wrapped into one. Depics old western landowner feuds in good taste. Has great color film for as old as it is. Chuck Connors is a surprise as he turns out to be a coward. Once again, the majestic mountains of the west prove to be another hit western. Must SEE!!

Next to "The Magnificent Seven", this is my favorite western film. The actors, the story, the locations and most of all, the MUSIC. Why in the world MGM has such a poor quality DVD on the market. And in MONO. One of the best musical scores in mono? I was at a collectors show about 4 years ago and found a CD of the entire score, released only in Australia. Over 70 minutes of that great music. It was expensive, but I could not write the check fast enough. I keep a copy in my car all the ... Read More

A very well acted enjoyable movie that is not what you think it is when you first see it. Upon first viewing, its maturity and reason are impressive. I saw it first as a teenager and loved McKay (Peck), the educated cool easterner among hot headed, seemingly thick headed, westerners. McKay is relaxed, non aggressive, eschews violence, values reason. Yet he is very masculine and very handsome (and Peck is unbelievably good looking). Leech the overtly macho man, strong and powerfully built (Heston), ... Read More
