If you’ll notice, Clint is riding a light colored horse or a „Pale“ horse. Same in the movie „Pale Rider“ and „High Plains Drifter“. The Pale horse …..last of the 4 horses of the Apocalypse upon which rode Death. Clint sure does dish death out in those movies……Cheers
One of Clint Eastwood's masterpieces. This one is a slow burn that builds. You instantly know hell is coming when he learns of Ned's death and begins to drink the whiskey. Although he has many great movies, I hope you react to Clint Eastwood's "The Outlaw Josey Wales" next.
“The Outlaw Josey Wales” is Eastwood’s finest Western-themed film, in my opinion. Great story, magnificent dialogue and the supporting cast is second to none.
Believe It or Not Outlaw Josey Wales also Stars sheb Wooley, known for his song The Flying Purple People Eater back in the early 70s. Also in movies again with Gene Hackman, Hoosiers.
People don't realize the reason Clint's character was sick was he contracted Yellow Fever, which was rampant at the time. That's what the hogs had as well. It wasn't just from the rain and getting beat up by Little Bill. He was also having fever dreams.
What are you basing that Yellow Fever diagnosis on? It's a tropical disease not found in Wyoming, it isn't transmitted to humans through hogs, and hogs don't get it. Swine Flu, yes, but not Yellowjack. Moreover, if Munny was infected by contact with hogs, his kids will all be sick too.
Then you got the comedy side of Clint Eastwood. "Every Which Way but Loose". You won't regret that one. Followed by, "Any Which Way You Can". You won't regret this one either. Best comedies
"What I've felt, What I've known Never shined through in what I've shown. Never free. Never me. So I dub thee unforgiven." Fun Fact: Clint Eastwood's mother Ruth Wood toiled through an uncomfortable day (wearing a heavy dress) as an extra, filming a scene where she boards a train. However, the scene was eventually cut, with her son apologizing. All was forgiven when he brought her to the Academy Awards and thanked her prominently in his acceptance speech. Legendary Boots Fact: The boots Clint Eastwood wore are the same ones he wore in Rawhide (1959). These boots are now part of Eastwood's private collection. In 2005 they were loaned to the Sergio Leone exhibit at the Gene Autry Museum of Western Heritage in Los Angeles, CA. The boots basically book-ended Eastwood's career in Westerns. Historical Fact: Deputy Clyde's line about why a one-armed man needed to carry three pistols, "I don't want to get killed from lack of being able to shoot back" is sometimes attributed to James Butler "Wild Bill" Hickok. He usually carried two pistols around his waist, another in a shoulder holster, sometimes another stuck in the back of his belt, and usually had at least one Derringer hidden somewhere. While working as a lawman, he usually carried a sawed-off shotgun as well. Hickok also laughed at Ned Buntline's report about his killing 20 men with 20 shots, saying that his theory was start shooting, and keep shooting, until the man you were shooting at was dead.
Sadly, people can't handle "quiet movies" any more, they need constant input of stuff. They've even started putting breathing noises over talking scenes between lines, because the "silence" is a turn-off, they need stuff to happen.
May want to rewatch. They're subtle but there are melodies throughout movie. The tone/music definitely ramps up near the end (plus the impact of the perfectly placed thunder claps).
Remember the guy who held the girl tried to stop his friend once he saw what she was doing & he even tried to give a peace offering with the horse. Also she didn't want to take revenge but her fellow workers didn't listen to her feelings. Also she wanted to take the horse but once again they wouldn't let her. Finally I don't want to justify Little bill but he was about to give a whipping before the owner intervene. Finally Bill kinda had okay motives keeping guns out of his town & trying to stop violence. You kind of had to be tough for the bad men that were out there but he did take things too far. He didn't have to beat up Bob or Will. He could have just arrested them & prosecute & escort them out of town. The whole point of the movie is whenever someone could have stopped the violence from escalating not one cooler head was able to keep the situation from getting worse. The movie makes the point that violence isn't to be glorified.
The story also shows that, although William Money is a cold blooded killer, he is also a dedicated friend to Ned and risk his own life to avenge his murder. That is why the ending makes the statement it does. Why did William's wife marry him? He was also dedicated to her.
I love a wonderful articulate reaction which is what you two provide. I think Unforgiven is a masterpiece. It's "slowness" is because it sharply creates characters and has a quiet consciousness about its theme which is about anti-violence while telling a really good tale. Clint wanted to tell a story that illustrated how glorifying violence is the wrong thing to do in films and a lot of his earlier films,, glorifying violence, were like that to a certain degree and he wanted to say, "I ain't like that anymore, kid." You two must check out his early masterwork THE OUTLAW JOSIE WALES (1976).
I love how the first 90% of the movie breaks down the iconic image of the gunslinger and shows just how difficult and damaging it is for a human to take another person's life. The stories were just that, nothing but stories. Then in the final 10% we see William Munny actually turn into that fantasy image of the gunslinger - an unstopable killer. This makes that portrayal 10x more powerful than if he was the bad-ass gunslinger the entire move.
As a few others stated, Pale Rider, Outlaw Jose Wales and High Plains Drifter are a few other Clint Eastwood movies you might want to react to. As someone who has lived at higher elevations in the western part of the U.S. I can assure you, seeing bare ground one day and a few inches of snow the next day is not uncommon. Especially in the cooler days of autumn.
I hold "Pale Rider" in lower steem than his other westerns but I know many people love it. I may check it out again. "High Plains Drifter" is one of my favorites! "Josey Wales" was the first one to make me watch it again and again, lol.
Joy and Marian, you are so right about attention spans and the way movies are watched today. If there isn't a cut, a quick jump, a bad CGI effect, every minute or so , the viewers shut down. Back in the late 60s and early 70s, in the US, before cable and satellite TV, you had to wait months for a recent movie to be broadcast on the 3 antenna channels. So, if you missed it at the theater, you really appreciated the movie when it came on TV eventually. It was a big event to watch major movies which would premier weekly on antenna TV. Then when VHS videos came along, in the 80s, you could rent them at a video store. This gave an opportunity to not only watch new releases, but go back and experience the great classic films.
This film is basically an epilogue to all of *Eastwood's* past westerns. The beauty is how it shines a different light on the genre. A far less glamorous one.🤠
Y'all really need to dive into Clint's other movies; Pale Rider, Dirty Harry, Outlaw Josey Wales (my favorite, he also directed), The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, High Plaines Drifter, Million Dollar Baby (he directed also), and more!
Don't forget our judgements of women's rights are based on today. Back then, women were not really with many rights at all. I believe this is one of the most accurate western movies I've ever seen. The funny part is, Clint Eastwood acted in those 3 as well
You don't notice it at first, but Will is riding a pale horse. The horse doesn't like being ridden at first, but the closer Will comes to being death, the better behaved the horse is. I saw this in the theater when it was still new. From the time will rode into town that last time, maybe a little before, it was dead quiet and still in the theater until the shooting was over. The nervous laughter at "pick up that Spencer rifle" broke the tension, just a little.
Delighted that you reacted to a Clint Eastwood movie. I highly recommend “Pale Rider,” it is another Western staring Clint Eastwood that was really well done. Hope you view it!
Clint Eastwood and Morgan Freeman repeat almost everything in Academy Awards with this movie and Million Dollar Baby (2004), which they also starred together, Eastwood directed, etc. Throw in Hillary Swank in Million Dollar Baby also who won the Academy Award for best actress also. A must watch, however bring some tissues.
"It's winter already?" Wyoming is on the east slope of the Rocky Mountains. It is the western end of The Great Plains. In wnter the Chinook Winds come blowing down the slopes, warming the area. A few days later winter is back. On the Great Plains the weather can go from 70 degrees to 20 degrees overnight. There is nothing to stop the weather systems. They fly through quickly.
Unforgiven is basically the anti-western. Clint decided to make a "realistic" western where the killing isn't heroic, and while perhaps just, it's still ugly.
One of my favorite modern Clint Eastwood movies where he directed is CHANGELING. It is a true story of something that happened in Los Angeles 100 years ago that is so bizarre that if you didn't know it was a true story you wouldn't believe it. Well worth a look.
What’s great about this movie is that it show the way that the lines are often blurred between what we believe is good as opposed to what we believe is bad. In some ways, the sheriff is actually a good guy. He cares about the welfare of the town. The people in the town seem to love him. The Cowboys who cut up the prostitute seem like nice guys at times. They bring the ponies as required and even bring an extra one. And when the one is dying, he’s a sympathetic character, begging for water.
There were two absolute wrongs committed. The cowboy who cut up the girl. And the killing of Ned. Everything else was blurred between right and wrong, good and bad. And in the end the "hero" admits to killing women and children. It's a very messy movie. Just like life. Greatest western ever made.
Clint can direct some strong, emotionally powerful movies...He 's bagged three Oscars for best Director, "Unforgven", "Mystic River" (2005) and "Million Dollar Baby" 2004.
@@USCFlash Just so we fully understand each other: I know you didn't suggest that Mystic River isn't a great movie; but since you didn't explicitly say that it is, I thought I should add that point, and recommend the movie as one well deserving a reaction.
yeah... and when he was dwelling in his heart if he deserves forgiveness or not.. he was like ''oh well.. i did too much anyway.. i am gonna end this the only way i know''
Great film, glad y’all enjoyed it. Definitely one of Clint’s best films. Hope you dive into his western library of films, there are many good ones, especially his Sergio Leone trilogy. You mentioned how most today have short attention spans, I suggest you watch “Once Upon a Time in the West”….one of the best western movies ever made.
Winning awards is not at all what it's cracked up to be. Sergio Leone never received an Oscar or even nominated for one. Neither did Alfred Hitchcock or Orson Welles.
@@grosbeak6130 I take your point. It takes years before the academy realizes a movie isn't just a freak out of a niche. But this is a more complete movie than a lot of Leone's films were, in my opinion. Like "Liberty Valance", in other words, it has to appeal to every demographic. I think Eli Wallach as "Tuco" in TGTBATU deserved an Oscar, masterful performance. Also, the score was definitely worthy. I don't know what movies they were up against either.
@@grosbeak6130 True & James Cameron has an oscar for best director while Kubrick does not. & Will Smith has same # oscar nominations (3) for acting as Gary Oldman 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Excellent film. One of my favorites. If you want to try a similar sort of anti-western, I highly recommend The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. It's also very deliberately paced, with little in the way of gunfights or action, but it's a fascinating character study and an intriguing look at the effects of celebrity and hero worship. The cinematography is absolutely incredible, too. Possibly the most beautiful film I've ever seen.
Y'all really ought to review the "outlaw Josie Wales" with Clint Eastwood. Great movie centered around the end of the USA civil war which brings in pioneers, native Americans, Mexicans, soldiers, a melting pot of the settlement of our country.
@@MJoy4Fun You will love them so much. It's the true story of the most wanted outlaw of the old west, Billy the Kid. Emilio Estevez plays a great Billy. I'd be so happy to see you watch them. The sequel is just as good, if not better than the first. 😊
Some other Clint Eastwood movies from the 90s and early 2000s that are enjoyable: In The Line Of Fire Absolute Power True Crime Space Cowboys Blood Work A Gene Hackman film I'd recommend from the 90s would be called 'Crimson Tide'.
i mostly watch reaction vids for two reasons, to enjoy the reactors reaction to movies i like, and to contemplate movies i like, because good movies get better the more you watch them
This is considered the conclusion to Clint’s series of “The Man with no Name” Like many stars they want to wrap the characters they played throughout the years.
Great reaction you two, you really get into it and have great commentary. You didn't show one of the great quotes from the movie though, when Little Bill is lying on the floor shot he says "I don't deserve to die like this" and Will says "Deserves got nothin to do with it" just before he shoots him in the face. The way Clint delivers that line is chilling
I only just noticed. The early scene where he is practice shooting at the fence post is based on a scene from The Outlaw Josey Wales(1976 Clint Eastwood) where he starts out just as bad but improves with a lot of practice.
Great reaction, you two !!! As far as Clint Eastwood Westerns, I am confirming and voting for The Outlaw Josey Wales, Pale Rider, High Plains Drifter and then, of course, there are the Spaghetti Westerns, A Fistful Of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More and The Good The Bad & The Ugly. After that, there's Hand 'Em High and Two Mules For Sister Sara.
@@MJoy4Fun I'm pretty certain you will love all of them, but I think you'll LOVE The Outlaw Josey Wales ... a LOT !!! Might even catch you quoting lines from it after you've seen it. Clint is Kewl 😎😉😊...
Will could not shoot properl because he was trying to be a good man instead of being himself. When Ned was killed, his rage took over and he became again the heartless, unfearing killer he had tried so hard to leave behind. The whole movie is about peole trying to deny their reral selves. Litle Bill trying to be a lawman when he was a heartless bully. English Bob trying to be a fearless man when he was a coward. The Kid trying to be a killer gunfighter when he was just an ignorant fool with dime-novel dreams. Will trying to be a changed man when he would always be the hand of death.
* Some people consider this the final chapter in *The* *Man* *with* *No* *Name* series. That movie series is believed to go in this order: *A* *Fistful* *of* *Dollars* ... *For* *a* *Few* *Dollars* *More* ... *The* *Good,* *the* *Bad* *and* *the* *Ugly* ... *Two* *Mules* *for* *Sister* *Sara* ... *The* *Outlaw* *Josey* *Wales* ... *Pale* *Rider* ... *Unforgiven* and *High* *Plains* *Drifter* (which is a story that is almost exactly like "The Crow"). * Someone put together a pretty cool "Man with No Name" montage video to the song "The Unforgiven" by Metallica. Just type in *Metallica* *The* *Unforgiven* *The* *Best* *Fan* *Video* by "Luiz Nascimento". It's pretty cool. Adam Ant did a song about Clint Eastwood called "Los Rancheros". I think "Hugh Jackman" would've made a good "Man with No Name", if they would've wanted to do some prequels, and some more sequels.
Unforgiven is arguably the greatest Western. Another couple to check out is, Pale rider, also directed and starring Clint Eastwood. And Butch Cassidy the Sundance kid, which is really good and based on a true story. 👍
Since you are a fan of Clint Eastwood, I have to suggest a great movie of his that is not as widely known to many people - Heartbreak Ridge - 1986. Wonderful characters and cast about a Marine lifer who is approaching retirement and is thrown in with a modern day bunch of misfits in the "new marine corp".

Best western ever made imo. Amazing cast and performances, great music, and a fantastic story. Masterpiece by Clint.

No-one is gonna forget Will Munny in that town in a hurry. He sure left his mark.
One of Clint Eastwood's masterpieces. This one is a slow burn that builds. You instantly know hell is coming when he learns of Ned's death and begins to drink the whiskey. Although he has many great movies, I hope you react to Clint Eastwood's "The Outlaw Josey Wales" next.
“The Outlaw Josey Wales” is Eastwood’s finest Western-themed film, in my opinion. Great story, magnificent dialogue and the supporting cast is second to none.
Best Western and Clint's best movie in general
Believe It or Not Outlaw Josey Wales also Stars sheb Wooley, known for his song The Flying Purple People Eater back in the early 70s. Also in movies again with Gene Hackman, Hoosiers.
One of my favorite movies with my favorite quote. "Birds gotta eat same as the worms" spits chew on the body.
"Are you gonna pull those pistols or whistle Dixie?" 🤠👍
My favorite movie of all time and Clint said it would have received same awards as Unforgiven had it came along when westerns were at their peak
29:13 "where you running to you're a big target anyway" 😆
People don't realize the reason Clint's character was sick was he contracted Yellow Fever, which was rampant at the time. That's what the hogs had as well. It wasn't just from the rain and getting beat up by Little Bill. He was also having fever dreams.
What are you basing that Yellow Fever diagnosis on? It's a tropical disease not found in Wyoming, it isn't transmitted to humans through hogs, and hogs don't get it. Swine Flu, yes, but not Yellowjack. Moreover, if Munny was infected by contact with hogs, his kids will all be sick too.
Bit of a stretch, don't you think? He recovered in a few days.
At the end Will finally accepted his fate. Like Little Bill said: “I’ll see you in Hell, William Munny.”
His response: “Yeah.”
Winner of Best Picture that year.
I love it when a film represents reality: the heroes and villains are not perfectly good nor perfectly bad.
I've been a Clint Eastwood fan since his Rawhide days. A long time indeed.
Then you got the comedy side of Clint Eastwood. "Every Which Way but Loose". You won't regret that one. Followed by, "Any Which Way You Can". You won't regret this one either. Best comedies
I love those movies. Way too underrated.
Eastwood also wrote and played the music for the title track.
"What I've felt,
What I've known
Never shined through in what I've shown.
Never free.
Never me.
So I dub thee unforgiven."
Fun Fact: Clint Eastwood's mother Ruth Wood toiled through an uncomfortable day (wearing a heavy dress) as an extra, filming a scene where she boards a train. However, the scene was eventually cut, with her son apologizing. All was forgiven when he brought her to the Academy Awards and thanked her prominently in his acceptance speech.

One of Metallica's best songs. 🙂
Indeed. I get the movie and song aren't related, but I can't think about one without the other.
Go in Peace and Walk with God. 😎 👍
If you want to enjoy Clint Eastwood in a revenge western, don't miss 'High plains drifter'
Honestly didn't like it much, very much prefer unforgiven
@@watchmanspector1642Check out the Outlaw Josey Wales sometime, it’s a good one.
Time to watch the Clint Eastwood classic westerns. Outlaw Josey Wales, High Plains Drifter, Pale Rider. Great job you two.
What I love the most about the film is theres no music the whole film, until he gives the speech at the end. It's so powerful.

He bought the script decades earlier and waited till he was old enough to play the lead. Its his greatest work both as an actor and director.

It was the third and final western film to win Best Picture.
Winning awards is not at all what it's cracked up to be. Sergio Leone never received an Oscar or even nominated for one. Neither did Alfred Hitchcock or Orson Welles.
Oscar is a commercial prize. Overrated. Especially latest years.
@@grosbeak6130 I take your point. It takes years before the academy realizes a movie isn't just a freak out of a niche. But this is a more complete movie than a lot of Leone's films were, in my opinion. Like "Liberty Valance", in other words, it has to appeal to every demographic. I think Eli Wallach as "Tuco" in TGTBATU deserved an Oscar, masterful performance. Also, the score was definitely worthy. I don't know what movies they were up against either.

True & James Cameron has an oscar for best director while Kubrick does not.
& Will Smith has same # oscar nominations (3) for acting as Gary Oldman
🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@RobertH-ol6mw The Unforgiven pales in comparison to Once Upon a Time in the West.
Three must Clint Eastwood Western from the '70s. The first, High Plains Drifter, The outlaw Josey Wales and Pale Rider.
Watch "Pale Rider" when a little girl summons Death to save her family and town.
He never forgave himself, and so could never move on, so he ended up embracing the violence.
HIS 1ST ACADEMY AWARD 😊 IN HIS LONGGGGGG FANTASTIC CAREER YOU GUYS! 92 MOVIE OF THE YEAR 😊 GENE HACKMAN WON TOO FOR BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
Excellent film. One of my favorites. If you want to try a similar sort of anti-western, I highly recommend The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. It's also very deliberately paced, with little in the way of gunfights or action, but it's a fascinating character study and an intriguing look at the effects of celebrity and hero worship. The cinematography is absolutely incredible, too. Possibly the most beautiful film I've ever seen.
7:36 the deputies should have arrested the barber that just gave English Bob that haircut.
ohh yeaaa haha
You have to see Butch Cassidy and the Sundance kid. My favorite western
Y'all really ought to review the "outlaw Josie Wales" with Clint Eastwood. Great movie centered around the end of the USA civil war which brings in pioneers, native Americans, Mexicans, soldiers, a melting pot of the settlement of our country.
*Young Guns 1 and 2*
My fave Westerns !
sounds good! will check it out
@@MJoy4Fun You will love them so much. It's the true story of the most wanted outlaw of the old west, Billy the Kid. Emilio Estevez plays a great Billy. I'd be so happy to see you watch them. The sequel is just as good, if not better than the first. 😊
Clint Eastwood also made the theme song that plays at the beginning and end.
Some other Clint Eastwood movies from the 90s and early 2000s that are enjoyable:
In The Line Of Fire
Absolute Power
True Crime
Space Cowboys
Blood Work
A Gene Hackman film I'd recommend from the 90s would be called 'Crimson Tide'.
No one ever got sentenced to prison in a western, they just got a night in jail, shot dead, whipped or hung. haha
I enjoyed this even more watching it with you two than the first time years ago. Fine cast in this one.
i mostly watch reaction vids for two reasons, to enjoy the reactors reaction to movies i like, and to contemplate movies i like, because good movies get better the more you watch them
So much joy,, happy that you watched
6:16 … “and it hurt” 😂😂😂
Amazing movie, Gene Hackman was so good.
So happy that you're reacting to this masterpiece!!
Okay, my money says he'll say "Game Over" after the first five minutes, but before ten minutes, LOL.
This is considered the conclusion to Clint’s series of “The Man with no Name” Like many stars they want to wrap the characters they played throughout the years.
"Pale Rider" feat. C. Eastwood is even better. 😊
Great reaction you two, you really get into it and have great commentary. You didn't show one of the great quotes from the movie though, when Little Bill is lying on the floor shot he says "I don't deserve to die like this" and Will says "Deserves got nothin to do with it" just before he shoots him in the face. The way Clint delivers that line is chilling
Wonderful reaction!
Definitely checkout his movie“The Outlaw Josey Wales“. Probably his best western movie in my opinion. Cheers
I only just noticed. The early scene where he is practice shooting at the fence post is based on a scene from The Outlaw Josey Wales(1976 Clint Eastwood) where he starts out just as bad but improves with a lot of practice.
Great reaction, you two !!!
As far as Clint Eastwood Westerns, I am confirming and voting for The Outlaw Josey Wales, Pale Rider, High Plains Drifter and then, of course, there are the Spaghetti Westerns, A Fistful Of Dollars and For A Few Dollars More and The Good The Bad & The Ugly. After that, there's Hand 'Em High and Two Mules For Sister Sara.
ohooo u know ur movies there! will check them out ^_^ Thank youuu
@@MJoy4Fun I'm pretty certain you will love all of them, but I think you'll LOVE The Outlaw Josey Wales ... a LOT !!! Might even catch you quoting lines from it after you've seen it. Clint is Kewl 😎😉😊...
Will could not shoot properl because he was trying to be a good man instead of being himself. When Ned was killed, his rage took over and he became again the heartless, unfearing killer he had tried so hard to leave behind. The whole movie is about peole trying to deny their reral selves. Litle Bill trying to be a lawman when he was a heartless bully. English Bob trying to be a fearless man when he was a coward. The Kid trying to be a killer gunfighter when he was just an ignorant fool with dime-novel dreams. Will trying to be a changed man when he would always be the hand of death.
little did they know who WIll truly is!
Great choice! Great movie!
thank youuu
* Some people consider this the final chapter in *The* *Man* *with* *No* *Name* series. That movie series is believed to go in this order: *A* *Fistful* *of* *Dollars* ... *For* *a* *Few* *Dollars* *More* ... *The* *Good,* *the* *Bad* *and* *the* *Ugly* ... *Two* *Mules* *for* *Sister* *Sara* ... *The* *Outlaw* *Josey* *Wales* ... *Pale* *Rider* ... *Unforgiven* and *High* *Plains* *Drifter* (which is a story that is almost exactly like "The Crow").
* Someone put together a pretty cool "Man with No Name" montage video to the song "The Unforgiven" by Metallica. Just type in *Metallica* *The* *Unforgiven* *The* *Best* *Fan* *Video* by "Luiz Nascimento". It's pretty cool. Adam Ant did a song about Clint Eastwood called "Los Rancheros". I think "Hugh Jackman" would've made a good "Man with No Name", if they would've wanted to do some prequels, and some more sequels.
Unforgiven is arguably the greatest Western. Another couple to check out is, Pale rider, also directed and starring Clint Eastwood. And Butch Cassidy the Sundance kid, which is really good and based on a true story. 👍
Josey Wales is better but barely
You should see Clint Eastwood in PLAY MISTY FOR ME. It's a great movie that scared the crap outta' me when I was younger.
Such a great movie
I don't say this lightly. I enjoyed this. Another nice one.
Since you are a fan of Clint Eastwood, I have to suggest a great movie of his that is not as widely known to many people - Heartbreak Ridge - 1986. Wonderful characters and cast about a Marine lifer who is approaching retirement and is thrown in with a modern day bunch of misfits in the "new marine corp".
Y’all gotta do “Million Dollar Baby”, also directed and started by Eastwood. It too got the Academy Award for best picture.
31:28 Ned rides a pale horse just like Death
Now that's a classic Western. ✌️
Yes! ANYONE can be forgiven.
Peace, Love!!
I think this might be the perfect western.
is not far!
Out of all the reaction vids I've seen, y'all are the best, most likeable people doing it.
. . ." he should've armed himself if he's gonna decorate his saloon with my friend "
cold blooded
Please review 'Good the bad and the Ugly' and 'A few dollars more.' Clint Eastwood's best films imo...Love your channel!
You should watch Clint Eastwood in Rawhide the TV show
