Peck’s Atticus Finch Stamp Is Due
As far as I’m concerned, this is the biggest movie-related news of the week: “Presented by the Motion Picture Academy and the United States Postal Service, the First Day of Issue ceremony for the Gregory Peck Commemorative Stamp, the 17th in the USPS’s Legends of Hollywood series, will take place on Thursday, April 28, 2011, at 11 a.m. at the Academy’s Samuel Goldwyn Theater, the stamp’s first day of issue. Laura Dern, Morgan Freeman and singer Natalie Maines will join host Sharon Stone in honoring the late Academy Award winner (1916 – 2003), who appears on the stamp as Atticus Finch in ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’.”
