Coby + Clint -- Round 1
The Good, The Bad, & The Ugly.
Josey Wales! Best Western ever made!
What program do you use to edit?
What do you use to shoot?
@@alexeilindes7507 couple different ones - still sorting out the workflow honestly
Notice once he becomes death
His pale horse allows him to easily mount him for the first time
Hah! awesome. Never picked up on that before 👍
I never noticed that but you are so right! The horse was finally calm!
Good catch! I hadn’t noticed either.
Damn, I’ve watched this so many times and never caught this either.
Hey thanks a lot I never noticed that.!!!!!! it’s pretty crazy how much you can miss in a movie sometimes.!!!!👍🏽👍🏽
“I ain’t like you Will.” The character arc of the self-anointed sobriquet Scofield Kid is one I can’t remember ever seen portrayed so well. He realizes he isn’t a cold-blooded killer, while William Munny can’t escape who he really is.
Wyatt Earp once said, “Fast is fine, accuracy is final. You have to be slow in a hurry.” That final shootout exemplifies that quote perfectly. Also, if you notice throughout the movie Clint’s character gives very ambiguous answers to questions. “I reckon”, “I suppose,” etc. But when Hackman says he’ll see him in Hell, the answer is a straightforward and direct “Yeah.”
He's also sure of his answer when he's asked if his wife is back in Kansas at 30:00. "Yeah, she's watching over my young ones."
That's exactly what makes the movie interesting to me, and Munny absolutely scary.
In the beginning we see how clumsy he got with regards to shooting and riding, because of age and lack of practice. And that stays true for the whole movie, including during the showdown in the saloon.
In the end he prevails not because he gets his skills back, but because his murderous nature - his inner "demon" if you will - comes back once his friend is killed.
In the final scene Munny is determined to avenge his friend by wiping the whole bunch of cowboys out and that single-minded sense of purpose removes all the remorse and compassion that made him hesitate earlier on. He embraces his scary nature and while all the other cowboys fumble in a rushed attempt to shoot him before they are killed, Munny stone-heartedly guns them down one by one, uninterested in his own safety. That's his edge right then and there and for a time he becomes almost completely inhuman.
When Will was talking about being ugly, he wasn’t talking about his face, Coby. He carries a lot of baggage concerning the things he’d done before settling down.
even the devil gets older
" deserves got nothing to do with it"
One of my favorite lines. What you think you deserve vs what you get are two totally different things. That's life in a nutshell so to speak. And what it means to me vs what it means to someone else goes to show what a great line it is.
This western Clint Eastwood movie is an absolute masterpiece.
This is my all time favorite movie, I'm 35 and I first watched it in College.
This was the culmination of all Eastwood's films no good or bad guys, no glory. The realization that it was all cold blooded murder
One of my favorite films...and it has one of the best lines since Fist Full of Dollars "apologize to my mule" scene lol. "who's the fella owns this shithole?"
When Clint screened the finished film for the writer he wept. Clint hadn't changed a word of what he'd written, it was THAT good. Apparently, that's something directors don't ever do.
In an interview Morgan Freeman said during the scene where Gene whipped him and threatened to hurt him worse later he didn't have to ACT scared. He BELIEVED him.
As soon as the girl told him about Ned being killed you saw him take the first drink and then another and he is right back to his old self. When he pulled the pistol in the bar he didn't miss, that's the old muscle memory of his old ways kicking in. Great story telling. Clint also said he made this movie because most of his westerns glorified the gunfighters and he wanted to do a more accurate western movie. Definitely get into the "Dirty Harry" series.
An epic western classic. Clint Eastwood acquired the rights to the script in the early ’80s, but held off on making it for years, as he felt he was too young to play Munny. This was his farewell to the western genre, and it won him an Oscar for Best Movie and Best Director. How perfect is that?
had the DVD used to watch regular. . . .thanks for the company
Coby is super observant in most reactions, it was interesting that she was a bit confused through a good part of this one. I'll have to reconsider how much the movie does or doesn't make things clear to the audience.
In the beginning the story of the cut up woman illustrated how "word of mouth" inflated/exaggerated the truth. Thus as the movie played out, the notoriety/legend of Munny is questioned by the viewer as we witness his struggles. But in the end, ultimately we hear the words come directly from the Reaper's mouth, everything was true, no exaggeration.
This is my favorite movie. I loved from the first time I watched it. But then I fell more in love with it when I got older and thought it through. Put my mindset in the 1800’s. William Munny was a horrible killer all through his life. Little Bill has been a lawman all of his. It’s the 1800’s. He’s punished the cowboys who did the cutting. Now he’s got to worry about all kinds of killer’s coming to his town to commit murder. He does what he considers to be the best course of action to prevent that. And you also have to keep in mind he has to be hard man himself because these are killers he’s having to deal with. The girl even says he didn’t mean to kill Ned, it was an a accident. Watch it again and really ask, did little bill really do anything that wrong that he didn’t think was in the best interest of his town and citizens. But even knowing that, you still root and pull for William Munny. Which is what I think makes it the best movie ever.
I would love to hear your opinion on that perspective. Loved your reaction video and will watch some more.
My favorite Clint Eastwood western is Outlaw Josey Wales.
Coby's reactions are AWESOME!
thank you !
The sheriff's doing it to protect the rule of law. Can you imagine a society where hiring a Hitman is legal?
Bounty hunters used to hunt down outlaws for a reward. Not so different, just legally sanctioned.
Unforgiven was an emotional roller coaster, for sure
10:41 He looks familiar because he's late great Richard Harris. He Played Professor Dumbledore in the first 2 Harry Potter films before he died.
I like Clint Eastwood in back to the future😎👍….😁
To see how Clint crafted his own Legend, you should watch his "spaghetti westerns". Italian-produced movies that defined his "the man with no name" character.
Fistful of Dollars
For a Few Dollars More
The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly
"High Plains Drifter" is a similar "man with no name" western.
Then definitely check out the Dirty Harry series. 🤙😎
The moment Clint’s character took a swig of whiskey……buckle up
It all could have been averted if Little Bill hadn't let those two get away with it to start with.
Best Western? Not the hotel, but genre. Maybe. It's up there with The Wild Bunch for sure. It was great to see a genre film that in the past always boasted about the killing prowess of the characters now navigate a tack where regret and shame are the guiding stars. Probably Eastwood's best film, whether it be actor or director (though it's difficult because Gran Torino and Million Dollar Baby were also so so good). For a change of pace you might check out Any Which Way But Loose (the sequel to that is Any Which Way You Can). They are just so weird, story-wise--IIRC it's Clint as an amateur fight club guy who travels around with a motormouth and a literal orangutan named Clyde and they are at odds with a motorcycle gang. What can I say, it was the 70s.
First time seeing a reaction from you. I'll check out some more. Would you be interested in a really old movie? Can I suggest one? "Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolfe?"
To let you know I'm not suggesting something obscure: "The film was nominated for 13 Academy Awards, including Best Picture and Best Director for Mike Nichols. It is one of only two films to be nominated in every eligible category at the Academy Awards (the other is Cimarron). All four main actors were nominated in their respective acting categories, the first time a film's entire credited cast was nominated."
I have always felt that this story was told from the perspective of W. W. Beauchamp. We are initially introduced to him as the biographer for English Bob and as someone who has an obvious thirst for documenting stories of the wild west. The moment he becomes devastated learning English Bob's stories have been largely fabricated, Mr Beauchamp promptly switches alliances to Little Bill. Evidently, it becomes apparent to him that the accounts as told by Little Bill are more thrilling and likely more accurate. Mr Beauchamp gets his ultimate wish and finds himself being a firsthand witness to an actual gunfight. In the final minute of the film, he steps out of the shadows to watch William Munny ride out of town. That alone, in my opinion, is the telling scene with regard to the revalance of his character. Of course this is all supposition because it is never actually revealed in the movie. Perhaps one of these days I will get a chance to read the original script, which, incidentally, was originally entitled as The Cut Up Whore. Perhaps it may confirm if my suspicions are valid.
Top 5 westerns ever 👍
Clint Eastwood and also Mel Gipson. The two best actors and directors.
Well... I don't know about Mel Gibson, but glad you enjoy films...
Great review! Thanks, I enjoyed it!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The Outlaw Josey Wales! 👍👍👍👍👍 His best film of all. 😎🇺🇸
More crying… bring it. Ha 🙈
you get emotional for hitmen
@@criminalcontentI really do… 🖤
@@cobyconnell1notice as soon as he heard Ned was killed he started drinking again. He became his true self. He’s unforgiven. He’s going to Hell and he accepts who he is. In the end he doesn’t ride off into the sunset, he rides off into the storm.
For another great Eastwood/Freeman team up you should check out 'Million Dollar Baby'
Duck, I says.
Eastwood bought this script after he read it 20 years earlier, then held onto it until he was old enough to play William Munny. That is dedication to film making right there.
Didn't know that. That's awesome!👍🏽
And according to the writer, he didn't change a line of the script - apparently relatively unheard of.
Damn that sounds like Clint 😊
That's a great story, as is the follow-up info from @MrZampanov about the strict adherence to said script.
Not really true at all OP.
Please stop spreading misinformation.
What you wrote makes zero sense.
Your claim that he had bought this 20 years before its production (1991) thus making its writing and his reading 1971 is completely wrong.
The first concept of it was created by David Webb Peoples in 1976 and later finished by 1978ish. Eastwood finally heard about it, in 1981....but was warned off of it by his "people" and script readers who all agreed it was terrible. So Eastwood did not read it. At the time it had been optioned by Francis Ford Coppola, yet he could not find the financing for it and it lay dormant until Eastwood finally got around to reading it and later bought the full rights in 1985, according to David Webb Peoples. It then lay dormant for another six years.
So even if we were to take the earliest possible acquisition of it, it is no earlier than 1981. Which meant that from first hearing about it to filming, was at max, 10 years and nowhere near the 20 you claim.
It was also not "dedication". Eastwood himself said he wanted to do other things first, as well as not being old enough yet.
This is easily found information.
When The Kid admits he never k*lled a man before.. I'm telling you, that's one of the most impactful and realistic performances I've ever seen.
True, why didn't he become a huge name after this?
Superb acting by the whole cast. Every scene with the Scofield Kid. Richard Harris' palpable calculation, rage and hate when Bill offers him the gun, amongst other highlights. And, of course, Clint speaking, acting, and looking like Death incarnate at the end.
That scene always reminds me of an account I heard from a British WWII veteran years ago (I don't remember his name unfortunately), describing his first and only kill of the war... "I sat down, I was violently sick, and I cried. I couldn't believe I had taken another man's life."
@@Jayskiallthewayski Most actors don't. Still, he had an important role in one of the greatest movies ever. That's better than what most actors achieve, unfortunately.
That young guy was a really talented actor. He really captured what this whole movie was about.
With every Clint Western I have to recommend The Outlaw Josey Wales one of the best movies ever made
Dying ain't much of a living boy
Buzzards gotta eat same as the worms
Absolutely.
I reckon so.
1000% Josey Wales is my favorite... so many great lines! "Buzzards gotta eat, same as the worms. (spit)"
"It's a hell of a thing, killin' a man. Take away all he's got, and all he's ever gonna have." Such an impactful line, and so true.
Or..it's nothing
man has got nothing and never will.
Galatians 6;3 if a man thinketh he is something when he is nothing he deceiveth himself
I prefer "We all have it coming, kid"
@@nitefly599 true, for atheists.
if you want to find your life you have to lose it
Morgan Freeman has said on numerous occasions that his favorite Director is Clint Eastwood. Considering the caliber of directors he's worked with over his illustrious career, that's high praise indeed.
The moment William takes that whiskey and starts drinking again always gives me chills.
As an alcoholic trying to give up, I have mixed feelings with the scene, but I get it.
@arconeagain kudos to you, and good luck on your quest for sobriety.
When he was a killer he was always drunk.
@@josephparker4022 thanks.
It's lost on most reactionaries. Including this one.
It's crazy that Clint Eastwood will turn 94 later this month, the guy is a living legend and he will still be a household name decades from now. He has that next level star power like a John Wayne, Jimmy Stewart, Clark Gable and Jack Lemmon.
not to offend or question your comment, but a little surprised to see jack Lemmon there, maybe instead Jack Nickolson (maybe he was too current) or Paul Newman...
@@mikes1487 Jack Nicholson is also a living legend like Clint. I remember how much my grandparents loved Jack Lemmon and I guess that is why he popped in my head.
@@mikes1487Lemmon is a legend.
When Clint keeps saying he is ugly, its not because of his physical appereance, but more about his past and all those things he had done.
"Deserve's got nothing to do with it" is one of my favorite lines from any movie ever.
Yeah, that line has stuck with me the most from this movie since I first watched it 30+ years ago.
I've always found that an odd line. Fits but I wished he said something like "Yes you do."
@@leechap3 yes certainly that would make sense from his point of view, because 'lill Bill killed Ned. But Will is more philosophical than that. It's like when the blind kid said "he had it coming" and Will responded "we all have it coming kid."
With the line "deserve's got nothing to do with it," I think Will is saying he's not going there to mete out justice. He's not pretending to say anything about who deserves what. He's just there for his own personal motivation (revenge.)
I was building a house!
Yep
The "innocent" cowboy didn't do the cutting, but he was told to hold her down and he did. In the eyes of someone like Munney, that's guilty too, and the contract was on both.
As for why he calls himself ugly, he is referring to the evil things he did before his wife got him off the bottle and made him want to be a better man. Great reaction, as always. Cheers!
Winner of 4 Oscars including Best Picture.
They got it right that year at least...
One of the last movies I can remember that actually deserved an Oscar.
@tjtenser7828 yeah, because Schindler's List, Forrest Gump, Braveheart and so on didn't deserve an Oscar
I saw an interview with Morgan and he said he didn't have to act during the whipping scene. Gene was so convincing he scared the shit out of him.
Although it gets panned by some, I think The Quick and the Dead is a fun movie, and Hackman is at just about his most menacing in that role. He is worth the price of admission alone in that flick.
@@stevesheroan4131 It's not a deep or thought-provoking film, but definitely fun, and Hackman is obviously having an absolute blast. Plus it's got such a colorful assortment of supporting characters and character actors in the roles. Keith David? Lance Henriksen, a pre-fame Russell Crowe, Gary Sinise, I mean what's not to like?
If she's never seen Pale Rider, she definitely needs to watch it.
Yes definitely pale rider. Chris Penn and that cutie native girl 👍🏻
I think his best works are Pale Rider and Million Dollar Baby. But I also love his comedy works in the Clyde movies too
Oops I forgot about Josey Wales. That's up there too
@JohnDoeMidnight-jq2me 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@JohnDoeMidnight-jq2me opinions vary
Notice when Munny starts drinking. And wants revenge. Suddenly he's death incarnate.
Munny was pure evil as he says himself
Clint Eastwood's movies are real character studies. People who are struggling with who they are and have to choose the right path. That's what makes them so powerful.
English Bob also was the 1st Dumbledore, and was in many movies going back to the 60s.
Richard Harris
@@stevetreloar3129 His son is an amazing actor too.
@@joelwillis2043 Yep... Played Valery Legasov in Chernobyl.
His portrayal of Oliver Cromwell was great too, along with Alec Guinness as Charles I. The film takes some liberties with history, but as a drama it's excellent.
@@bluesrocker91 Yes, Jared Harris.
The Outlaw Josey Wales. 1976. This is neck and neck with Unforgiven as Clint's signature American western. Perfect calibration between comedy and tragedy.
This film won 4 Oscars (Picture, Director for Clint Eastwood, Supporting Actor for Gene Hackman (who played Little Bill), and Editing for Joel Cox).
Clint Eastwood later won another Best Director Oscar for the incredible film MILLION DOLLAR BABY (that movie also won 4 Oscars in total: Picture, Director, Actress (Hilary Swank) and Supporting Actor (Morgan Freeman)). Funnily enough, Morgan Freeman's Oscar (his only win ever) came only one year after his SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION co-star Tim Robbins won Supporting Actor (Tim won for MYSTIC RIVER, also directed by Eastwood (and another fantastic movie)). A full circle moment, indeed. I highly recommend all of these movies.
all time classic " Well he should have armed himself "
I'm always amazed how Silky gets a pass in these reviews. Although the cowboy who cut Delilah is true scum, it's Silky's bitterness, hate and need for disproportional revenge that causes all the death and destruction in this movie. This is reinforced when the boys pay Skinny the horses and the nice kid tries to give Delilah the good pony but Silky doesn't even check with Delilah and only rages on the boy chasing him away and denying Delilah even the slightest compensation for her injuries.
Silky barely has any lines. You're thinking of Strawberry Alice.
@@Philistine47 Yes, my bad. I confused Strawberry Alice and Silky. Thanks for the correction.
This is more an indictment of what happens when you do not mete out proper punishment for a crime. If Little Bill had arrested and prosecuted those two cowboys properly, none of what happened after would have taken place.
As for Strawberry Alice seeking "disproportional revenge"... I would say it is more about sending a clear message to deter any future abuse of her girls, since none of the "authority" figures in their lives were ever going to do anything about it. Taking that pony would be akin to accepting that it was OK to abuse her girls as long as there is payment.
@@sandman_says_runrunner4701 That's true, and in many ways is the same pragmatic attitude that Little Bill has. Regardless of the fact they are at loggerheads, they both see the applied use of controlled violence as a deterrent against further violence. Which by the end of the film is shown to be false... It's only the unrestricted explosion of rage Munny unleashes in the saloon and the threat of escalating it to a complete massacre of the whole town that finally draws it to a close.
But aside from that, it was Delilah, not Alice, who was the real victim of the original crime, and she is never once given the opportunity to express her honest thoughts or feelings on it. All we can deduce from her character, body language and facial expressions whenever the matter comes up is that she is far from comfortable with the idea. As so often happens, the real victim gets forgotten.
I suppose that really sums up the title of the film. In her apparent openness to the offer of the pony, Delilah is the only character who (rightly or wrongly) demonstrates any capacity for forgiveness, but she's always drowned out by louder voices baying for blood, and so the cycle of violence and revenge continues until nine men are dead. Whether they deserved it or not didn't matter, as Munny points out.
All great points but I count 8 dead, not 9. 5 in the final fight, the 2 from the contract and Ned.
It’s amazing how many people don’t seem to pick up on the fact that when Little Bill gives English Bob’s gun back to him on the stagecoach, that the gun barrel is bent.
when my friends leave my house after dark i tell them " you stay clear of folks you see" I've been saying it for over 30 years. great film, nice reaction
Remember what English Bob said about trying to assassinate a King or Queen. "You're hand will wither and you won't be able to hold or aim your weapon."
Notice the two men in the rain who had a bead on William Munny? "You shoot him! No, you!" Equating that sense of "Awe" to both royalty and legend.
Notice also how the Kid's hand shakes as he takes the shot... I suppose the point is that ultimately it doesn't matter whether it's a king or queen, or just a "no-good cowboy" taking a dump in an outhouse. It's still taking a human life.
@@bluesrocker91 Just get out of town when William Munny starts drinking whiskey.
36:00 In one interview Morgan Freeman said about this scene that it was easy for him to act because he was *really* afraid of Gene Hackman. He said it becomes easier to act when the actor opposite you is SO good and really convincing! That is some compliment, i think. Liked your reaction.
Now you got to see "Gran Torino" !! You can't esca[e that one from Clint Eastwood. In Million $ Baby CE's daughter did a small role - girl at the Petrol Pump. In Gran Torino his son has a small role. A must watch. Regards,
When little bill whispered into Ned’s ear that was all improvised by Hackman.
There is only one man who could direct this movie, glad he did.
What is great about this movie is that it didn't glamorize the shootings of the old west, but gave it a really harsh reality to it. I mean, the final scene is amazing but, to me, the film just has a more empathetic feel to it. Like Ned not having the heart to shoot a man any more, or Clint telling them to give him a drink of water. Great film!
Wow, it's interesting that you had not seen this but a lot of Eastwood's films that many people have not seen. I remember going to see "A Perfect World" at a midnight showing that opening weekend.
I remember the trailer for "Unforgiven" before "Lethal Weapon 3" that summer. The audience was audibly impressed by the sight of Clint Eastwood being back in a western, and this was a time when most people were not aware of upcoming movies until they saw the trailers.
I was lucky enough to meet Clint at a small venue in Paso Robles CA. in 2008. It was a bucket list moment, and I can tell you he was down to earth, gracious , and very pleasant to everyone there. He spent well over an hour taking pics, chatting, signing autographs. It remains one of my best memories.
I thought long and hard, and it is my belief that Clint Eastwood, at this moment in time, is the greatest top to bottom movie man or person in history. Many have done it in front of the camera, and many have done it behind the camera and some have done both. But of those who do both Clint is at the Top of the list in my opinion. He ended up being a great actor, but he is an elite film maker. Combined he is the greatest.
When you watch his movies you realize they're more than just entertainment. They have a message. His movies have a way of getting you in your feelings.
Clint Eastwood announced that he is about to retire, he will make his last film and that will be it. It was a moment that in recent years I saw coming, he is 93 years old, he stretched his career enough when others would have retired at the age of 80 or less.
Thanks for passing on his announcement. Figured he might be. Ever check his Wiki profile ? Probably the most interesting one I’ve read. The opposite of “non-stop to the top”.
6:00 The kid is talking about the same incident we saw at the start of the film.
The kid's version of the story just serves to highlight how these sorts of stories grew arms and legs the more people found out about it.
This has been a favorite of mine since childhood. I'll never forget the emotions i felt when the Schofield kid shot a man down. I had seen dozens of movies where people died, hell at that point my favorite film was the hills have eyes. But the way the writing, acting and directing came together for that one scene, it really made me feel the weight of his regret. It made me understand that when someone is gone, thats it. You don't only lose a life, but all the memories that person made, all the relationships they built, the things they've done and all they ever planned to do. Every good idea or creative thought, gone within seconds. And as cool as the kid thought it all was, he learned instantaneously that he was never meant to be that kind of man.
lotta growing up going on in this little gem
@@criminalcontent indeed
Saw this in high school several times while working at General Cinema as an usher. First Western i had ever seen, and still one of my favorite movies. I think it makes a difference when you see a classic as a kid and have the capacity to understand the theme and be emotionally moved by it. It stays with you.
He's the lucky one. He can still change his ways, become a better man. It's too late for all the others. They're either dead or so far gone that they expect to go to hell.
They didn’t have broadcast media or the Internet in those days, Coby, so it’s not unusual that the story would’ve become exaggerated as it was passed from person to person.
10:40 Albus Dumbledore (the first two, before the actor passed) ...... or maybe the old emperor in Gladiator? 🙂
The guy who played English bob is Richard Harris. He's the original Dumbledore in the Harry Potter movies and he also played Marcus Aurelius In Gladiator.
@Jumpman67 And the 1970 brilliant, raw "A Man Called Horse", 2 Best Actor nominations, an outstanding theatre career and was Peter O'Toole's drinking buddy.
I agree about the first half being slow. I actually started to watch this movie multiple times over the years, but only pushed through the last half about 10 years after it was released. I figured it was another "Dances with Wolves"... until I finally saw those last few minutes. You can see the change in Munny as he sips at the whiskey bottle while hearing about Ned. He slowly transforms into the vicious killer he used to be, totally disregarding any promises he made to his wife so he could have the power to avenge his friend. Great Reaction, you really got it. 😢
He does'nt transform in to a vicious killer. He always was one. He killed the young cowboy, when he was wounded and helpless, with no hesitation or regret. The regrets, if any, always comes later, when the deed is done.
I always loved how the story of the women who got mutilated, became more gruesome with everyone who told it, just like all the stories that came out of the old West, they were embellished and made the old West the romanticized version we know now.
"All I can tell ya is who's gonna be last." DAMN! LOL!!
Clint was on a film with John Wayne and he said Wayne didn't want his character to shoot the bad guy in the back. Clint said he thought to himself, "Why not? It's quicker and safer ain't it??" 🤣
Clint was never in a film with John Wayne. Do you mean he was on one of Wayne's sets?
Yeah, Coby thought the writer would want to follow Munny now that he met a gunfighter that could kill Little Bill. I think English Bob was a braggart and Little Bill just liked talking about himself. A vicious man like Munny (at least his previous or drunk self) would just as soon shoot the writer if he bothered him.
@@reservoirdude92 Yeah, you're right. It was on one of Wayne's films (The Shootist) where he was supposed to shoot someone in the back. He didn't like that and refused saying, "I don't shoot people in the back." They mentioned Eastwood would. He didn't care for Eastwood's style and said, "I don't care what that kid woulda done. I don't shoot people in the back." Eastwood heard about it and asked, "Why would you wait for someone to draw their gun??" Lol!!!!
@@kickballjedi Lol!!!
@@kickballjedi English Bob and Little Bill were both braggarts, but they were also vicious killers. Don't sell them short.
The bar scene at the end is one of the most powerful in movie history imo.
A real western an epic is a 1989 1990 mini series called lonesome dove with Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones, Diane Lane and Angelica Houston. The book and script was so good these Hollywood stars accepted to do it in a time pre Soprano's when it was considered taking a step down to play a roll in TV.
Richard Harris is the other older actor in the cast, a legendary actor from old Hollywood, perhaps recognized by new generations for the Harry Potter films and Gladiator, where he played Comodo's father (Joaquin Phoenix).
ah Gladiator...i knew i recognized him but couldn't place it
Next, Gran Torino, another banging Eastwood directed acted movie
I have yet to see a reactor comment on how Bob's accent changes on his way out of town.
Yes! Bob was obviously putting on a posh accent to go with his pseudo-aristocratic persona. But at the end all pretence has gone and he's back to his original accent, presumably from some Dickensian slum in London where he grew up.
So many of the characters in this film are pretending to be something that they are not (or in Munny's case pretending not to be something they are).
The mark of great art is that you see something new every time you experience it.
True. I've watched this movie many times and for some reason I missed that William Munny's wife was also an "Indian" How I missed 'Feathers' as her last name all those other times, I don't know.
Well Done Coby!
I've always felt this was the most realistic view of what the real West looked like. The most Un-Hollywood Western.
This had to have been incredibly difficult to work out the pacing of this movie. There's very little action in the first half. Then what action there is was slowly played out. Yet Clint and the Editor managed to keep us enthralled until the ending. And the payoff at the end was Amazing!
The coolest & most iconic western ever made...
THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY 😎
I seen it first at ten years old and could never like the other two films after that.
My favorite line in the movie: "Innocent of what?"
Grew up listening to mom’s record of The Big Country in Nigeria in 1965. Became fascinated with Westerns, watching them on TV in the 60s and in theaters in the 70s and 80s. John Wayne and Clint Eastwood were my heroes growing up. Unforgiven was the most difficult Western to watch. Things I took for granted, the reality and horrors of taking a life was addressed head on. Never looked at Westerns the same way again. I love this movie for doing that.
Hi Coby, love your reactions and glad you decided to watch “Unforgiven”. Now you really need to check out a young Clint Eastwood western. How about “The Good, The Bad and The Ugly”? Cheers!!
Very Nice Reaction Thank You & 💖GOD Bless you & all your 💞Loved ones COBY always & forever 🙏Amen. 😍💞💖😊🇺🇸🙏😇👍
If not the best western ever, certainly in the top 3. Excellent performances throughout the movie. Of course Eastwood, Hackman, Freeman and Harris were excellent, but even the lesser known actors turned in great performances. It's really hard to rank Eastwood movies when he has so many good ones.
If you haven't, you should definitely react to the Jeff Bridges, Hailey Steinfeld True Grit from 2011 or 2012, is brilliant
The actor who played " English Bob " was also in " Gladiator ".
Richard Harris
1970 - A man called Horse
An epic western.
👍👍The Bridges of Madison County (1995)
Another great Eastwood movie from the 90' s.
The time frame here is shortly after Prsident Garfield was shot, July 2, 1881, but before he died in Sptember.
Gene did a late 60-early 70s movie a bout a government spy, who becomes hunted, twenty five years later he did basically a sequel with Will Smith! But his biggest role will proly always be, The French Connection! And he was also great in a Denzel movie, crimson Tide!
You should check out The Bridges of Madison County Directed by Clint Eastwood. You'll love it.
If Coby isn't a Goddess in your world, Well... your world sucks. great reaction!
@billwicketvogel1787 Really? Don't get me wrong, Coby's cute and all and its fun to watch her reactions...but a goddess? You've never met her, what if you did meet her in real life and she turned out to be a bitch? Sure, she could be amazing (and I hope she is) but she could also be one of those girls who creates fake accounts to track you online, or decides to call your mother to chat even though you have only been on one date and you have no idea how she got your mom's phone number, or she could be one if those girls where you ask her a simple question and instead of giving you a straight answer she tells you a 20 minute story about the answer instead. She's Australian so there's a good chance she pronounces the names of herbs funny. Anytime you start equating beauty with goodness and think a girl is perfect just because she's good looking just picture her red faced and screaming at you that you're stupid because you left a small smudge of toothpaste on the counter, or one of your socks fell out of the hamper, or you bought the "wrong" nectarines at the store.
Great reaction Coby! Now I would suggest the 'Spaghetti Western" trilogy for more (but younger Clint). However, if you to only watch one more I would suggest 'The Good, The Bad and The Ugly'. Keep entertaining us Coby!
Pale Rider is another great Clint Eastwood western.
Remember the Englishman talking about how a King or Queen is too noble to be killed, that an attacker must stand back in awe? I think this is foreshadowing why no one can shoot directly at Money... he is the epitome of American nobility, the perfect gunfighter.
If you haven't yet , watch the Clint Eastwood movie : The Good , The Bad And The Ugly. It's one of the best Clint Eastwood movies of all time from his Spaghetti Westerns. 👍 👍 👍
