Which Clint Eastwood do you Like Best?
The bad ass "Dirty Harry" Eastwood?
or...
The more gentle Eastwood of the 90s and 2000s with films such as Million Dollar Baby and The Unforgiven.
It's basically weak plot, shoot 'em up, but lots of fun VS. movies with good plots and deeper themes.
"I LIKE THEM BOTH EQUALLY" is NOT an option. If you had to choose, which would you choose?

Re: Which Clint Eastwood do you Like Best?
I don't know. Tough call. Clint was pretty bad ass in Unforgiven, and he shot a lot of shit up in the movie. "He shoulda armed himself" might be the most bad-ass line of all time. He's pretty awesome in Gran Tourino too.

I'd say he was a total bad-ass in Gran Tourino.bjornolf wrote:I don't know. Tough call. Clint was pretty bad ass in Unforgiven, and he shot a lot of shit up in the movie. "He shoulda armed himself" might be the most bad-ass line of all time. He's pretty awesome in Gran Tourino too.

I like the Clint Eastwood who settled down in Carmel, became mayor and married the local television news reporter, Dina Ruiz.

Bad ass.
The First Mate has had the pleasure of meeting him in Carmel at his Mission Ranch. He's quite accessable there. She also was at the premier for The Unforgiven and the cast party. She won a drawing for a lucite encased sheriff's badge, given away at the party.

She also got to meet Morgan Freeman, Frances Farmer and some others not in the film. Tom Selleck and the late John Denver were there.CathyCA wrote:
