Best Clint Eastwood Film

[Tom Sawyer]

Not director "only", acting efforts.

 

It's difficult for me...

 

TOJW was my favorite... until GT

I voted for Unforgiven, but I could've just as quickly picked Play Misty For Me.

[Del_Duio]

Clint is my favorite actor, man this was so tough but I gotta' give the nod to High Plains Drifter. An avenging sherriff's ghost, and a ton of awesome one liners in that one

 

The Unforgiven, Dirty Harry, Good the Bad & The Ugly would be next.

Any movie where Clint lays the beatdown on thugs with an axe handle is okay in my book.

 

Was it ever said that his "Preacher" in this movie was the same character that was also in High Plains Drifter?

Eastwood said himself that the Preacher was a ghost. However, this ghost had bullet holes in his back from Stockburn and his gang.

 

The ghost in High Plains Drifter was the murdered sheriff avenging himself. Lots of wrathful spirits out West.....

The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

[tel]

Think his westerns were his best work, voted for josie wales but it was hard to choose.

[Xanadoood]

The Beguiled is one of his most underrated.

The Good The Bad & The Ugly is pretty much the greatest film ever made.

The original plan was to "reveal" or at least "implicate" the stranger was the sheriffs brother, but Clint decided to leave him blank, let the audience "decide" ghost or a just a coindence... he purposely created a "vague" character.

I don't care that it is the mainstream one or the most famous one...

 

 

It is totally a top 5 film for me. Absolute f***ing perfection.

[Good,bad,andrush]

And I've seen all on this poll except Paint Your Wagon, The Eiger Sanction and The Enforcer.

[Rushman14]

i see "The Rookie" was left off the list. For good reason.

[workingcinderellaman]

I voted for Unforgiven.

 

I loved that movie.

Good movie but a little overrated...or I don't know, just not his best.

These poll options are sooo difficult

Fistful of Dollars and High Plains Drifter are my favorites -

 

 

When the man with a 45 meets the man with a rifle, you said the man with a pistol is a dead man" Let's see if it's true.

 

"Aim for the Heart Ramon"

Same.

[thesweetscience]

I can't do it. This is like being asked to pick your favorite child.

 

 

[ReRushed]

I guess I'll go with Dirty Harry.

 

I do love Gran Torino...

 

I finally watched Thunderbolt & Lightfoot a couple of months ago. Damn, it's a funny movie!

[Invisible To Telescopic Eye]

Unforgiven.

 

But Josie Wales is right up there....but so are a lot of his other films...He's great.

 

Heartbreak Ridge

 

Where Eagles Dare

 

Kelly's Hero (although a "star studded" cast)
