First of all, Happy First Contact Day! Only forty-six more years until the Vulcans land in Montana! :D
Today would also have been Gregory Peck's 101st birthday. In honour of which, please have some screenshots of him as a young, ridiculously pretty priest, kneeling down and kissing his mentor's hand.
All from The Keys To The Kingdom, 1944. The one where he's looking up all puppy-dog-eyed like, "Please approve of me!" (which is pretty much the context) is doing things to me. (Peck in a 1987 interview: "I hadn’t learned how to relax and how to concentrate. All I had was sincerity." HELP)
File under: Oh, The Things I Would Do To That Man, subcategory: Please, Santa, I'll Be So Good.
And, you know, it's not that I find either the Pope or John Gielgud attractive in any way, but Peck does it again in The Scarlet & The Black (1983) (also one of my favourite movies ever):
The hair-petting, argh! The fact that this scene is a small moment of personal approval from someone the character respects, after a whole movie of incredible, inconspicuous bravery and self-sacrifice!
File under: I Don't Have A Fealty/Praise Kink, YOU DO
(According to Wikipedia, in real life Gregory Peck was also outspoken against the House Un-American Activities Committee and was a faithful Catholic who disagreed with the church about contraception and abortion. While having excellent taste in women and an almost 50-year-long marriage. I'm fond.)

Mucca hasn't screencapped but I plan to.
(I think he may actually crack up in the tuxedo scene? He actually loses it and starts cackling with wild laughter at how fucked he is. It's pretty amazing. 1949 so he's begun to expand his acting! range.)
(Then he faceplants into Ava Gardner's boobs, or at least gets slightly vampiric in the region of her neck. Lol.)
BUT THE TUX
