One of the first films to directly tackle racial prejudice, this acclaimed adaptation of Laura Z Hobson's bestseller stars Gregory Peck as a journalist assigned to write a series of articles on anti-Semitism. Searching for an angle, he finally decides to pose as a Jew - and soon discovers what it is like to be a victim of religious intolerance. Director Elia Kazan and producer Darryl F Zanuck caused a sensation with "the most spellbinding story ever put on celluloid" (Hollywood Reporter), recipient of three Academy Awards including Best Picture.
