1. Outlaw Josey Wales
2. The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly
3. Dirty Harry
4. Fistful of Dollars
5. (tie) Kelly's Heroes (tie) Unforgiven
Where Eagles Dare almost made the list but Eastwood really is a supporting character in that. Many consider Unforgiven his best movie but I placed it further down the list solely based on the number of times I rewatched it. Really liked Grand Torino but the ones I picked were classics. Also liked The Eiger Sanction but the book was better. The Dirty Harry films (after the original) didn't make the list because that character became cartoonish as it went along (just glad the role didn't go to Frank Sinatra - that would have been a completely different franchise).
He last directed a movie last year begging the question of if he's finally retired from films?
Right turn Clyde.
ReplyDeleteThose were very underrated movies - though I admit that biker gang did take me out of it
