I am partial to Unforgiven, particularly the ending.

But I have not seen Outlaw Josey Wales.
I’m going to put it on my downtime to-do list.

Josey Wales was exdellent..

But for me.. It’s the Good, The Bad and the Ugly as the definitive go to Eastwood classic...

Eastwood, Wallach and Van Cleef. amazing all together.

I’ve been watching the western anthology series “Death Valley Days” the past six weeks. I was startled to see Clint in a small role in “The Last Letter” episode which aired Dec 8, 1956. He appeared in a couple of TV shows in 1955, so this was among his earliest acting gigs.

The worst movie Clint Eastwood made has to be the musical “Paint Your Wagon”.

Yes, Clint Eastwood and Lee Marvin in a musical.

If you’ve never seen it, you must!

I haven’t seen all of those, but “Dirty Harry” was my favorite. “A Perfect World” is not only his worst movie but one of the worst movies I have ever seen.

It’s my favorite of his westerns

In Play Misty he really shines

But the actress is the scene stealer

I don’t know about the claim in the title. I’ve see lot of Clint Eastwood movies but I’ve never managed to get very far into The Outlaw before losing interest. I recall when it came out my sister seeing it and raving it up.

Josey Wales and High Plains Drifter are my two favorites.

Followed very closely by the "Man with No Name" trilogy.

Unforgiven is excellent.

Pale Rider is excellent.
