A “Get off the World’s Lawn” threat, from Eastwood?
Its too bad Moore never showed up with his camera at Clint Eastwood’s house.
To bad he didn’t follow through. Just say’n
Make my day.
Moore as the victim - “an 84 year old man once threatened to kill me”.
I might do the same if I ever ran into that pile of Crisco!
How can Moore “confirm” anything? He can only make claims, and his credibility is somewhere in the sewage treatment plant.
OK to clarify, Moore was to be killed at Eastwood’s house, not at an award ceremony,
I already liked Clint Eastwood. Which branch of the service was Mike in again?
Moore ambushed Charlton Heston in his own house with his camera for his phony anti-gun “documentary” when Heston already had Alzheimer’s. That was the context in which Clint spoke.
Moore is garbage.
“I’m going to kill you” is not the same as “I’ll kill you IF...”
Eastwood did it because of the disgusting thing Moore did with an ailing Heston in his movie. The other thing Moore does not get is that Eastwood was playing a role. If Moore had any character at all he should have shown up at Eastwood’s. He could not honestly believe Eastwood wood gun him down on his lawn. Moore makes a living out of blind siding and embellishment.
“A shooting isn’t necessarily a bad thing. It depends on who’s getting shot.”
‘Harry Callahan’
Darn, if only Clint had followed through, we wouldn’t have to deal with that lard a@@ running his mouth all the time
Yes you are right.
Here’s the context of that “Kill” comment:
Back in 2005, Eastwood confronted left-wing filmmaker Michael Moore at the National Board of Review dinner, where both men were being honored for films. In Eastwood’s case, it was Million Dollar Baby.
In Moore’s case, it was the anti-gun documentary Bowling for Columbine. Moore’s film includes a notorious scene in which he interviews a feeble Charlton Heston, then president of the National Rifle Association.
After Eastwood accepted his award, he directed some comments at Moore. “Michael Moore and I actually have a lot in common – we both appreciate living in a country where there’s free expression,” he said.
Eastwood then added: “But, Michael, if you ever show up at my front door with a camera – I’ll kill you.”
The audience laughed and Eastwood grinned.
I always liked Clint, I like him more after this statement. Million Dollar Baby, a great and moving movie. I’ve never watched a slob Moore movie, imagine that.
