American actor Gregory Peck (1916-2003) was one of the most popular film stars from the 1940s to the 1960s. Peck received five nominations for the Academy Award for Best Actor and won once – for his performance as Atticus Finch in To Kill a Mockingbird (1962). He almost always played courageous, nobly heroic good guys who saw injustice and fought it. Among his best known films are Spellbound (1945), The Yearling (1946), Gentleman's Agreement (1947), Roman Holiday (1953), The Guns of Navarone (1961), and Cape Fear (1962).

Jennifer Jones (1919-2009) was an American actress, whose film career was mainly situated in the 1940s and 1950s.
The influential independent film producer David O. Selznick noticed her at an audition in his New York office. She soon became his mistress. For twenty years, Selznick chose alternate roles for her. Jones achieved great fame with her Oscar-winning role as Bernadette Soubirous in the religious biopic The Song of Bernadette (Henry King, 1943). Selznick brought her into contact with famous filmmakers such as Ernst Lubitsch, John Cromwell, and Vincente Minnelli. With some of them, such as John Huston, Henry King, and William Dieterle, she worked together several times. It was a successful period in which she was conceived with four Oscar nominations.

American film, stage and television actor Joseph Cotten (1905-1994) achieved prominence on Broadway, starring in the original stage productions of The Philadelphia Story and Sabrina Fair. He first gained worldwide fame in the Orson Welles films Citizen Kane (1941), The Magnificent Ambersons (1942), and Journey into Fear (1943), for which Cotten was also credited with the screenplay. He went on to become one of the leading Hollywood actors of the 1940s, appearing in films such as Shadow of a Doubt (1943), Duel in the Sun (1946) and The Third Man (1949). One of his final films was Michael Cimino's epic Heaven's Gate (1980).
