Oops....forgot to mention "The Big Country" and "How The West Was Won", two others among my favorite Peck Westerns.

About the only Peck films I didn't like were the "Omen" things and "Boys From Brazil" "Boys From Brazil" had a great cast but it just didn't seem right with Greg playing Josef Mengele, the Nazi's infamous concentration camp experimenter. He nearly always played a good guy so it was sort of a shock to see him playing such an evil character. As for the "Omen" series, that was a depressing subject in and of itself and I didn't like one of my favorite actors playing in it.
Greg made some pretty good Westerns. I really liked him in "The Gunfighter", "The Bravados" and "The Stalking Moon". He was even pretty good in "Duel in the Sun", though he played a rat.

Peck made several movies that I really like but I think my two favorites are "The Big Country" and "The Stalking Moon", two excellent Westerns.
