Yes, since the Rawhide days. Seems there might also have been some early episodes of Death Valley Days with Mr. Eastwood.

Don't have an absolute favorite, like them all.

Glad to see lots of Clint Eastwood Fans here.

Lots of good movies.

Always enjoy watching his movies.

Gran Torino has sad ending but some good ways to treat your neighbor.

Not liking Clint Eastwood is un-American!

Clint Eastwood movies are some of my favorites. One of my favorite lines in Heartbreak Ridge "You can rob me, you can starve me...and you can beat me or even kill me, just don't bore me."

Another favorite is Any Which Way But Loose.

Been a lifelong fan. The cool thing is, the longer he's in the industry, the more productive and better he gets. He's 88 and still in the game, producing quality stuff. Never seen a movie with Clint (or Bronson, or Coburn, or Van Cleef) in it that wasn't highly entertaining. An in the Highway Patrol episode, Clint wasn't really a delinquent.....just a young guy on a motorcycle getting hassled in a small town for looking like a bad ass.

Been a lifelong Eastwood fan. Watched "Every Which Way But Loose" and "Any Which Way You Can" a lot when I was younger. Then "Dirty Harry" when I was a teenager. Then started watching some of his cowboy movies Pale Rider, Josie Wales, High Plains Drifter. Heartbreak Ridge is great. Another that I have not seen mentioned but I think is fantastic is "Honkytonk Man".
Have to agree that Charles Bronson is awesome too. I just discovered the Death Wish movies a couple years ago(I have them all now).

I've always been an Eastwood fan. From Rawhide on up to Dirty Harry and beyond. I've seen all his movies and not a one was ever a disappointment. In my book he's in the same league as John Wayne. And you can't do much better than that.
