  • A tribute to a beautiful film I have seen recently for the first time: Breezy, directed by Clint Eastwood and starring William Holden and Kay Lenz. I'm not a great fan of Eastwood usually , but this is a genuinely moving romance, told in an original way. The two leads are just perfect: I felt for them both all the way ! I mixed pictures from the movie and behind the scenes. The song is the theme composed by Michel Legrand, lyrics by Alan and Marilyn Bergman and sung marvellously by Shelby Flint. Enjoy !

      @@AMEER-114- Clint Eastwood directed Breezy and probably AFTER he directed/filmed High Plains Drifter. Just because it was released 5 months after Breezy was filmed can only mean that HPD was filmed and in the production can by the time Clint was shooting Breezy.

  • @joep8787

    I love the movie. One of Holden's best performances and one of his bravest, given that he looked older than his 54 years, compared with Cary Grant or Burt Lancaster who looked younger when they were 54. Holden was an actor who was very self conscious; he had to get himself drunk just to dance on screen in "Picnic" because he thought he looked ridiculous. I can imagine that it was hard for him to do this role. Kay Lenz was only 19 in this movie, yet her performance was flawless; it was more assured than I would have expected from someone so young. There was never a moment that I caught her acting. And the writing; it's rare that a movie is so well written that you don't notice how well it was written. So much of so-called good writing is just the result of a script writer trying to come up with clever, quotable lines.

    This is so emotional. It brings life into perspective. Sometimes you meet Mr. or Ms. Right Now, the person who you share a special timeless love that's destined to end long before your life does. If we could all be so lucky to find a Breezy of our own, that someone who opens the door of opportunity and slowly, brick by brick, dismantles the wall built with the scars around an often-broken heart.

      "Drifter" was also Directed and produced by Eastwood who Directed "Breezy" so it's not hard to imagine that he used some of the marketing materials that were already available as set design props for "Breezy" which was filmed AFTER filming "Drifter" was completed.

    Saw this not long after it was released. Kay Lenz was just lovely. A great film and golden age. This was a pretty magical time in California. There was optimism and good vibes generally. Life was good with excellent movies, music, affordable housing, great surf beaches, and high standard of living for the middle class. LA and SF were extremely cool cities. In the last quarter century in particular, things have dramatically deteriorated. Mass third world immigration, Chinese dumped Fentanyl, police defunding, permissive impalpable social policies and lack of appropriate facilities for the mentally ill have turned large tracts of California into a dystopian nightmare.😢😮
