That is probably my single most favorite Clint movie...

Favorite Eastwood gun? The AK from Heartbreak Ridge.
If you think about it, almost all of Eastwood's good guy roles (Has he ever played a villain?), roughly fits this description. Dirty Harry, from the standpoint of a goody-two-shoes, was a bad cop. He tortured confessions out of suspects and cared little for the Fourth Amendment, but we still loved him because he got the murdering slime balls off the streets. Blondie, from the The Good, The Bad and The Ugly was hardly a classic good guy in his daily conduct, but you still loved him because deep down you knew he was on the right side of things, and would never do something truly "low down," unless the guy had it coming to him. All of his characters were sort of like that, I think. The closest he ever got to a truly bad guy was in High Plains Drifter, but even then he was sort of on the right side of things in the big picture. The whole town sort of had it coming, after all, and he let them off pretty light.MudPuppy said:Unforgiven is my all time favorite movie--the good guys are murdering, whore mongoring drunks, the bad guys are the the sheriff and the law. It just twists everything into the way the real world tends to be--not the hollow-wood crap.

A kind of Stephen King meets Hugh Hefner sort of weird thing.

I believe you're referring to "Play 'Misty' For Me".Camp David said:He was in an early movie called, "Call Me Misty" about radio... if he wasn't bad he was certainly flawed!
