This is a fun, recent article - if you enjoy laughing at a torrent of leftist bleating and hand-wringing.
I'll bet it put a smile on Clint's face, though.
Loved Spacecowboys! Enjoyed every moment of that movie.
Happy Birthday Mr. Eastwood!
Fly me to the moon.....
I agree. The Outlaw Josey Wales is his best. It is the only Western or movie I have seen that accurately describes the motivation for many in Missouri to fight with Quantrill. This includes four of my ancestors and even several of Harry S. Truman’s family.
Mr. Eastwood has been a fav for along time. Dead Pool wasnt a bad movie. Kinda hokie though
______________________________
Dead Pool had many memorable scenes...
Shoot out in Chinatown...Car chase involving the small car...
Stopping a suicide...
Liam Neeson and Jim Carrey were in that film also...
The Rookie (1990) and Blood Work (2002) were also directed by Clint E.
One of my all time favorite lines from a movie is Dirty Harry’s from “Magnum Force.”
“Man’s got to know his limitations.”
_______________________________
Magnum Force had some famous people in it...
David Soul, Robert Urich, and Hal Holbrook...
Oh man, Susan Dey, there was one of my biggest schoolboy crushes, right there.
