Out having a meal on Saturday night when two blokes at the table next to me were talking about Clint Eastwood and some of his films. Conversation started up with us all discussing which were our favourites.

Personally I loved play misty for me , tightrope, Bridges of Madison County and high plains drifter.

Which are your favourites.

Gran Torino - An American Harry Brown.

Just sums up the modern world today

Where Eagles Dare - some of the most wooden acting of all time and a plot that it looked like even the actors didn't get but it has stuck with me since I first saw it. I remember way back, we had our first VHS machine and i watched it over and over again

He has done a ton of blinders.

All the westerns are superb with the Leone trilogy being the pinnacle. Can't pick a winner from the 3. Coming just under is High Plains Drifter and
Lesser ones for me would be Unforgiven, two mules for sister Sarah & Hang em high - but they're still excellent.
I'm a bit of a western nut though

Other non western highlights
The Beguiled
Play Misty for me
Thunderbolt & Lightfoot
Escape from Alcatraz

The Dirty Harrys are all worth seeing but a bit dated now

Was massively dissapointed with Gran Torino

It would be easier to say which ones are not very good as there are very few of those.


His later films are more mature in every sense but also a little depressing at times. I will never watch The Changeling again.(He was not acting that one of course)

The ones I could watch endlessly are probably;

Magnum Force
Escape From Alcatraz
Every which Way but Loose/You Can
Sudden Impact
Bridges Of Madison County
Thunderbolt And Lightfoot
The Eiger Sanction.
Play Misty For Me.

Many others I could watch most days, The Dollars Trilogy of course and some of his later movies like In the Line of Fire, Absolute Power,Unforgiven Gran Torino and Blood Work are very enjoyable. The only ones I don't like particularly are Bronco Billy, Joe Kidd and the awful Dead Pool.

Edit, and I absolutely hate Kelly's Heroes.

Million dollar baby was good. Didn't go anywhere along the lines of what I was expecting it to.

Blimey. No one has mentioned The Man with No Name trilogy.

Call yourself Clint Eastwood fans?

Sorry Sergio, Lee and Eli. All that effort.

Gran Torino - spent the whole time waiting for his nan to turn up, but other than that it was superb.
