My favorite of his is Unforgiven. Recall my parents had seen it in Chicagoland or some other point East of California and suggested I go see it while I was catching up with them on the phone.

I have been watching Dirty Harry but took a little break from it. I will get back soon though.

I’d go with the good/bad/ugly. It’s long but epic. After that I loved High Plains Drifter growing up.

Favorite Clint Eastwood movie?

Any one of them before he turn 60 years of age.
After that, he looked like warm-over death.

Pale Rider was fun.

Yup. I used to get the 2 movies mixed up because the names and his sort of ghostly image in both movies. I had a thing for that young girl in Pale Rider when I was a kid.

The Outlaw Josey Wales was excellent. Think I heard about it from my parents when they were visiting relatives on Cape Cod.

It's not even a close race:

"Outlaw Josie Wales" is the best all time.

“Trouble with the Curve” because I was an extra in that movie. We filmed at the old Turner Field in Atlanta and I was sitting behind Clint in the stadium scene. He was such a gentleman and very nice to the background actors.

Hard to choose a favorite western-love them all. So I will choose the civil war movie The Beguiled from 1971. Offbeat and so different from most of his movies.

this is a wonderful thread that will live on!! i'm a huge fan, seen them all, and most enjoyed would be SuddenImpact, 2Mules for Sister Sara, and believe it or not, Bronco Billy. oh, and the Enforcer, Unforgiven is a classic like Josey Wales

If you never seen how the orchestra did the theme for the good and bad the ugly you’ve got to watch this! It’s amazing, especially how good that lady whistles

That was very good, and as you say, the lady whistler was brilliant.
They even had someone hanging from the ceiling.

From Actor to Director, Clint Eastwood had an incredible run. Perhaps GOAT. It’s difficult to pick just one movie. The Outlaw Josey Wales if you have to pick one but there were at least three others just as good IMHO.

They do a lot of these concerts. Really liked their James Bond ones.

My all-time favorite by far is, "The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly." It's the best western since "High Noon," and both featured Lee Van
Cleef (one at the beginning of his career and the other at the end of his career). Also, a terrific acting job by Eli Wallach - probably the best in his career - contributed to makeing this one of the top all-time westerns and my favorite Clint Eastwood flick.
