Why

CELESTE HOLM won her Academy Award for "GENTLEMAN'S AGREEMENT"

MODA Entertainment is celebrating the 85th birthday of the legendary actress Celeste Holm with a special screening of "Gentleman's Agreement" starring Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire, John Garfield and Celeste Holm. The film won 3 Academy Awards, Best Picture, Best Director (Elia Kazan) and Best Supporting Actress (Celeste Holm) in 1947.

Directed by Elia Kazan "Gentleman's Agreement" is the story of a well-known writer at a progressive New York magazine decides to tackle anti-Semitism in a unique way as his first assignment. Gregory Peck pretends to be Jewish in order to write about the effects of bigotry. From being refused a job and access to public accommodations, to his son being beat up and his fiance (who at first doesn't know he's NOT Jewish) expressing concern over his faith, Peck soon learns what it means to be Jewish. He discovers just how this affects him, and the other people in his life. Demonstrates how racism affects a person, especially the subtle forms which may go unnoticed by many in today's world. It also shows how otherwise good people can and do contribute to racism in small, everyday, ways.
