Gentleman's Agreement centers around Phillip Schuyler Green (played by Gregory Peck) who goes undercover as a Jew to report on antisemitism.
This film came out shortly after the end of WWII and was obvious propaganda. The filming was dark, and while it was a dark subject itself it was so dark that sometimes I had difficult disguising what was going on. I have always had an interest in WWII so was looking forward to seeing this, unfortunately, the story telling was so dull that I don't think I could have held my eyes up with toothpicks. In fact I am having a hard time reviewing this as my eyes were so glazed over that I couldn't even give a fair judgement on whether Gentleman's Agreement even deserved an Oscar for Best Picture. To conclude, this is a lackluster review for a lackluster film.

"It's important right now that we talk, killer to killer."
Unlike Addison DeWitt I would not like to talk killer to killer but rather as movie lover to movie lover. What do you think?
