The Big Country


(PG)

The Big Country is big entertainment, a magnificent Western spectacle of rival Texas cattle barons clashing violently over the water rights of the Big Muddy ranch. Gregory Peck stars as Jim McKay, a sea captain who trades the expanse of the oceans for the open range of the West and grows to regret his choice. Charlton Heston is the menacing Steve Leech, a rugged ranch foreman who loves the land and has a keen eye on McKay's beautiful fiancée...

Includes an Oscar winning performance from Burl Ives.

The Big Country is a wonderful movie starring a host of major stars. Gregory Peck gives a wonderful performance as an outsider coming to the West who doesn't quite fit in. It is an epic movie but well worth watching. All in all in a very good movie.
