Just want to say Hi. Clint Eastwood has, naturally produced several outstanding videos throughout his long, distinguished career as both an actor and director. Having been an ardent fan of his for several years, and having seen and appreciated all his movies, it is very difficult to pick out some of his films as my particular favourites. However, if pressed to record an all time top five, I'd probably identify all the next movies as ones-which carry an unique place in my-memory in regard to observing Clint at his best. 1. 1. Escape From Alcatraz (1979) - Clint is amazing in his role since the prisoner Frank Morris, who manages to escape from the famous Alcatraz island prison having a little help from some fabricated dummy minds which, seemingly, for the foxed prison guards, are just the convicts sleeping peacefully on the pillows. Based on a true story, Escape From Alacatraz is one of the greatest prison escape movies ever made. The Nice, The Bad and The Ugly (1967) - Undoubtedly the King of all Eastwood Films for me, and certainly my all time favorite Developed. Clint is just amazing while the strange, cool, calm and collected cigar-chewing Man With No Name. This spaghetti western is such an epic masterpiece of a movie, and has so many legendary and official website unique moments inside: the vast, dusty, unfriendly and ominous landscapes by which the three main protagonists - Blondie (Clint Eastwood), Tuco (Eli Wallach) and Angel Eyes (Lee Van Cleef) - vacation and fight in desperate search of the graveyard-buried Union gold; Blondieis touching encounter with the dying soldier; the alternating friend/enemy relationship that regularly bubbles between Blondie and Tuco while they sometimes double cross each other, just to further their very own devious ends; the tense, nerve-jarring climax within the sprawling cemetery as the three men standoff against each other in a drawn-out gunfight (love what sort of camera switches in one set of eyes to the other inside the build up towards the draw, which brilliantly rakes up the pure increasing tension and uncertainty of who'll die first). And who are able to forget that awesome, atmospheric music by Ennio Morricone? The Nice, The Bad and The Ugly was the initial movie that made me a Clint Eastwood fan. It's simply the absolute most fantastic, totally flawless video I have ever seen in my life. Truly, the superior spaghetti Western. 2. Play Misty For Me (1971) - Clint plays a late-night radio DJ who's relentlessly and lustfully pursued by an obsessed, psychotic female crowd, who generally asks him to "play Misty" for her. The movie builds up to some chilling, tense climax that has you on the edge of the chair. 4. 3. Frustrated with the drawback of legal red tape and police, Harry says to hell with the system - this is one way criminals ought to be punished. And, kid, do not most of US cheer when Harry confronts the crazy killer Scorpio and provides scumbag the comeuppance he so deserves? So there-you contain it: my top-five Clint Eastwood movies. Hope they have "made your entire day."
