The Big Country (1958), New Year's Eve, 1:30am, BBC2
Five star fabulousness!
The BBC are treating us to a rare screening of William Wyler's epic, highly sexual western classic, writes Reel Reviewer.
Gregory Peck is impeccably upright and principled as the gentleman from the east who comes to the 'big country' of Texas to marry spirited Carroll Baker...and finds himself up against glowering, jealous Charlton Heston.
He's better suited to pretty but tough teacher Jean Simmons, who is herself lusted after by repulsive, rapacious Chuck Connors.
Big people, big themes, big movie and one to spend a big afternoon watch.
