Probably just you

It's a great film. It also features one of my favourite songs, Where do I go from here? by Paul Williams.

Aside from the classics, I've got a very soft spot for Play Misty For Me.

I know Clint loves it but I'd rather not count Bronco Billy....

Isn't Thunderbolt and Lightfoot a lyric from Bohemian Rhapsody?!

"Thunderbolt and Lightfoot, very very frightening me
Galileo, Galileo Galileo, Figaro..."

The best character Clint ever played - Gunnery Sergeant Thomas Highway. I just love Heartbreak Ridge.

Dirty Harry - say no more!

I also liked his Gran Torino - great movie and cute car.

Greetings!

PS: I always forget about his badass character in Kelly's Heroes - maybe that's because Sutherland is even more badass in that great flick.

PPS: A little gem and very underrated - Tightrope.

PPPS: If I want to have a nice laugh - he's great as Philo Beddoe, too.

Bought the Blu-ray 'Dirty Harry Collection' recently.
Brilliant films!
They don't make 'em like that anymore

Very true indeed. The Blu-rays are excellent value for money at the moment.

Greetings!

I've seen damn near all his films and in my opinion hasn't made a bad film, acting and directing-wise. There's a few I haven't seen though so...
