I'll put a top 5:

  1. The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
  2. Dirty Harry
  3. Unforgiven
  4. Gran Torino
  5. The Outlaw Josey Wales

Not too different but Gran Torino was missing and thats up there for me.

[[[5.The Outlaw Josey Wales]]]

An excellent western in a time of the genre dying out.

Dirty Harry was the birth of the anti-hero. An entirely new genre.

Clint was a pioneer in so many ways. The best thing he did was go to Italy during the 60’s.

Loved the early stuff:

Hang’em High, High Plains Drifter, Play Misty for Me, Coogan’s Bluff, The Spaghetti Trilogy, The Eiger Sanction, Where Eagles Dare, from fun to serious to absurd. (The Gauntlet)

Tightrope, Firefox, etc.
