Gentleman`s Agreement was generally received positively by influential New York Times critic Bosley Crowther. Crowther stated that “every point about the prejudices that Miss Hobson had to make in her book was made with superior illustration and a more graphic demonstration in the film, so that the momentum of her moral outrage is not only broadened, but thus amplified.” However, Crowther also said that the film shares the novel`s shortcomings, as “explorations are narrowly limited to the social and professional level of the upper class to which it is immediately exposed.” He also said that the main character`s shock at the scale of anti-Semitism lacked credibility: “It is, in careful analysis, an extraordinarily naïve role.” [7] The basic elements of Hobson`s work are not only preserved, but in some cases receive more dimension and plausibility. This applies to adaptation, staging and performances. Thus, the first meeting between Phil Green and Kathy is more understandable on the screen than on the printed page. Similarly, the couple`s other scenes, especially the initial love scene, dramatize their irresistible mutual physical attraction that overcomes their violent philosophical disagreements. It`s about the anti-Semitism of affluent postwar America and the insidious way Jews were excluded from high-end social clubs, resorts, and, of course, jobs. There were no official bans, just a nod and wink and a “gentleman`s agreement” between the conservative-minded non-Jews they know, with whom they want to connect. This is the kind of everyday prejudice that Groucho Marx elegantly rebuffed with his joke of not wanting to join a club that would have him as a member. In the end (aided by a memorable farewell plan), human drama seems just as powerful as morality. The elephant in the room is, of course, the Holocaust. It is not mentioned, although this has only happened recently. Phil seriously tells his little boy with big eyes that anti-Semitism is a kind of religious prejudice like anti-Catholicism, and perhaps it is understandable that he does not want to burden his son with the subject of the Holocaust.
But he never tells his mother or his colleagues. This could be due to the fact that he and the film can`t quite absorb the terrible paradox that the US went to war to defeat Hitler, and that US troops liberated a number of camps – while feeding vile anti-Semites at home. Putting Dave in an army uniform is the film`s coded way of saying all this. The best Jewish friend in army uniform is the silent rhetoric of the film. In some European countries, Jews became second-class citizens in the 1920s and 1930s. The situation in the United States has never been more extreme, but there was a certain level of mistrust that did not resolve with the comings and goings of World War II. The selected hotels were limited to a non-Jewish clientele. Some restaurants have refused service or booked a separate area. In some parts of the country, Jewish holidays were not recognized. This is the climate in which Laura Z. Hobson`s novel Gentleman`s Agreement (originally published in Cosmopolitan) was written, and the climate in which the film adaptation was produced. Kathy`s attitude is further revealed when she and Phil announce their engagement.
His sister Jane (Jane Wyatt) invites him to a celebration at her home in Darien, Connecticut, known as a “small” community where Jews are not welcome. Fearing an unpleasant scene, Kathy wants to tell her family and friends that Phil is pretending to be Jewish, but Phil persuades Kathy to only tell Jane. At the party, everyone is very friendly with Phil, although many people are “unable” to attend at the last minute. If you like this review, search Instagram for more suggestions. The Gentleman`s Agreement`s handling of bigotry is beginning to be strident – a concession by filmmakers to ensure that everyone in the audience understands the nature and meaning of “anti-Semitism.” Consider, for example, the scene in which Green explains to his son the prejudices against Jews – it sounds like a speech prepared from a pamphlet. However, while the film leaves behind the introductory phase, it explores deeper and more subtle forms of prejudice. Kathy, for example, is an advocate for equal rights for Jews, but she doesn`t want Phil or his son to be “confused” with one. The reason? She realizes that life is more difficult for Jews because of the widespread fanaticism, and she wants her relatives to claim the easiest way. Is this attitude anti-Semitic? And when someone tells a class joke about a Jew in her presence, she argues that she is bubbling with indignation inside, but she says nothing. Does their silence constitute a tacit acceptance of an anti-Semitic status quo? Phil says the following in one of Gentleman`s Agreement`s most revealing observations: “I`ve seen a lot of nice people who hate [anti-Semitism] and regret it and affirm their own innocence, and then they help it and wonder why it`s growing up.
People who would never beat a Jew. People who think anti-Semitism is far away, in a dark place with low-class idiots. This is the biggest discovery I`ve ever made. The right people. Nice people. The role of Phillip Green was initially offered to Cary Grant, but he turned it down. Peck decided to take on the role, although his agent advised him to refuse, believing that Peck would jeopardize his career. Jewish actor John Garfield agreed to play a lesser role in the film to be a part of it. DIRECTOR: Elia Kazan SCREENPLAY: Moss Hart ACTORS: Gregory Peck, Dorothy McGuire, John Garfield, Celeste Holm, Anne Revere, June Havoc, Albert Dekker, Jane Wyatt, Dean Stockwell Much of the “message” gets lost in a jumble of words. The feeling is also as well distributed as we would like.
Phil`s childhood friend Dave Goldman (John Garfield), who is Jewish, moves to New York City for a job and lives with the Greens while looking for a home for his family. Dave also experiences anti-Semitism when someone in the armed forces tells him he hates Jews and engages in a brief fight before the biased soldier is taken away. Housing is scarce in the city, but it`s especially difficult for Goldman because not all landlords will rent to a Jewish family. When Phil tells Dave about his project, Dave supports him but worries.

Synopsis: A journalist pretends to be Jewish to tell a story about anti-Semitism and personally discovers the true depths of fanaticism and hatred. (IMDB) Gentleman`s Agreement still seems like a clever, concise and captivating drama, and although times have changed since 1947, the subject he tackles so boldly remains relevant and relevant to this day. But gentleman`s agreement is not only shy. There`s a big scene at the end where Dave calmly confronts Kathy with her inability to express herself when one of his smart guests has made a joke about a “kike”. In tears, Kathy expected Dave to congratulate her on her conservative liberalism simply because she felt bad afterwards. Cool, with a touch of steel, Dave insists that she explain what the joke was and how she failed to take a stand – because every time an evil crack passes unchallenged, the forces of bigotry take power for bigger projects. It`s a great moment for Garfield and it`s always a catchy scene.
For all its flaws, Gentleman`s Agreement is a tough, haughty, interesting member of the Best Picture Club. .
