Despite? “ Dirty Harry” probably did it ‘because’ not ‘despite’

I’d expect nothing less from Clint Eastwood.

Makes sense, especially since this centers around the 96 Atlanta Olympic games and besides Clint won’t bow down to Hollywood dictators anyway.

It’s “The ballad of Richard Jewell” “Not Battle of Richard Jewell”

Did the writer screw up the name of purpose?

I saw Clint’s movie, “Mule”, on the way back from Australia.

Good movie. Clint did a great job, IMHO.

I live near downtown Atlanta, haven’t seen any slowdown in film production.

Just wait until the bean counters give them all the lowdown on the facts of money. I predict little long term effects of the “boycott.” But if it keeps libs out then it’s Georgia’s gain.

Good for him and a good subject to do a movie about. I wonder what would happen if he planned to have a background shot of a soccer game and offered a cameo role to that Lesbo?

“Watch how many people turn down the jobs created by this film.”

I think you are forgetting the one or two who will make a “I refuse to work in GA” declaration so as to gain some publicity and some cred with their libtard and HollyWeird friends.

Give Hollyweird a couple months and they’ll be begging to get back to inexpensive Georgia locations.

The Richard Jewell story makes the media look bad. Why would Clint Eastwood do a movie based on it?

I can see that. Of course, those will be the ones the Left wing media focuses on.

This is the same guy who interviewed an empty chair. Obama didn’t like that very much but I thought it was a scream! Clint is not PC. That is one reason he’s been my favorite all these years.
