Gentleman's Agreement

Gregory Peck portrays a journalist who pretends to be a Jew and is made aware of the prejudices in his own environment. With Dorothy Mc Guire, John Garfield and Celeste Holm.

Phil Green is a widowed journalist who has just moved to New York City with his son Tommy (Dean Stockwell) and mother (Anne Revere) Green is inspired to adopt a Jewish identity ("Phil Greenberg") and write about his first-hand experiences.
