Clint Eastwood continues to be a genius.

Those not from here just don’t have a clue . But really wherever you originally called home nothing ever matches it in some ways .

He isn’t bad but in my eye he pales in comparison to “The Duke” And Jimmy Stewart and Randolph Scott (another Virginian born and raised in the county I also was born and raised).

Eastwood is in front and behind the camera as director.
I think that’s what sets him apart.

Let's not forget Dirty Harry and what he did for M29 sales. I became really close with my local gun store owner and had one within a week of seeing the movie. As far as great westerns, all Clint's spaghetti westerns were classic but Unforgiven was in a class all by itself. That and Open Range were two of the best IMHO.

I couldn't tell you of any bad Eastwood films.
