There was a time in NYC when some of the Times Square area movie theaters would screen all the Clint Eastwood spaghetti's "Fistful of Dollars", "A Few Dollars More", "TGTB&TU" in a triple feature for one admission price. You could be there for hours.

Of course they weren't the necessarily the nicest or most luxurious theaters in town and some of the patrons definately weren't "upper crust"(myself possibly included).

I don't do "upper crust" anyway.
I like real people....:)


Sometimes the Encore Western channel will run Eastwood 24/7 for a couple days and I sit through the movies even though I've got them all on DVD.

[I suspect I'm an idiot]....;D


I grew up on that stuff.
We'd go to the drive-in loaded up with steak subs, pizza burgers and milkshakes.
My dad and I were in paradise while my mom was sitting there, probably silently pondering the best way to hang herself with the car speaker cable.....:))

When they ran 'Billy The Kid Vs Dracula' before 'Joe Kidd' one night, I thought sure she was gonna start crying.
