    Eastwood in Hang 'Em High. The 1967 film became studio United Artists' biggest opening in history, exceeding all of the Bond films at that time

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/galle...ture=361563840


    Eastwood plays the victim in The Beguiled, 1971. The film was largely unsuccessful, which Eastwood blamed on his fans not warming to his emasculated role

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/galle...ture=361563932


    Eastwood gets back to action in Dirty Harry, 1971, starring as a tough San Francisco cop. This was the first of five Harry Callahan movies, making it Eastwood's signature role

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/galle...ture=361615314



    His most famous lines: "But, being as this is a .44 Magnum, the most powerful handgun in the world and would blow your head clean off, you've got to ask yourself one question: 'Do I feel lucky?' Well, do ya, punk?"

    http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/galle...ture=361563838



    Released in 1971, Dirty Harry was a phenonemal success. The film has been credited with inventing the loose-cannon cop genre imitated to this day

    There is something about Talaivar in showing his characters end. Here, he just disappears like the other two westerns, Hang 'em High, and Pale Rider. If he dies, he lets it linger like in The Beguiled.

    But the ending is about hypocrisy of preaching on violence I guess. He is just saying, yeah, preach all you will, but what happens happens. Sometimes you just have to pick a bone with bone (direct translation from Tamil).

    Nope. Evil stays, hangs around, chill at Starbucks and pore over laptop or something. That's what I felt watching it.

    Talaivar said, actually Hackman's character was a decent guy, who is just doing his job, a bit overzealous, but is just as corrupt as any other being. Plus he was building his house, which is a regular thing at that time.

    By the way, better persons to discuss this would be the hub panditharkal,

    Tbh, Clint was world renowned for that, unlike his other peers. (hint hint - O'Toole in LoA)
