Not bad for a first time director. |

Not bad at all. The pacing is a little slow by the standards of today's thrillers, but the acting is first-rate and Eastwood does a fine job on both sides of the camera.

I've decided to try and own all of Clint's films released on DVD. I've got a fair few already but will start collecting after I'm done with collecting all of Sly's films (even though I'll probably never get Rhinestone). |

That's quite an ambition! I'm not even going to try as I'm missing far too many and there are probably half a dozen films much higher up the wishlist in terms of priority and ones I desperately want to add to my collection. Maybe, if and when they are all reissued on Blu-ray, I'll pick them out one by one but, if that is never going to happen, I might buy one on DVD every so often and build my collection that way.

Yeah, it will take a while. I'm going to do the same, make sure I have a list of what I need on my ipod or something and pick up the odd film whenever I come across them but the ones I desperately want I'll get online. I don't need many for my sly collection, mostly his stuff before Rocky and a few things in between so it won't be long before I get started on the Clint collection. |

I had the whole set of the Clint Eastwood Collection that were realeased fortnightly from Deagostini a few years ago. Sadly I ebayed them in a moment of cash shortage. Always regretted that. The great thing is I've seen pretty much all of his films now though. One that I liked because it's so un-typical of Clint is The Beguiled. A nice dark little flick were Clint is a wounded soldier that gets taken back to a girls boarding school and has his way with pupils and teachers alike. If we're talking favourites, it'll always be The Good The Bad & The Ugly. Least favourite, I'd have to say City Heat, a gangster film he did with Burt Reynolds was a real struggle to get through. |

It's a great film and, in my opinion, is better than Flags of our Fathers.

Weird thing, I didn't like FLAGS much, saw em back to back and found LETTERS far more moving. In fact could have done without seeing FLAGS first.
