The Outlaw Josey Wales/Awesome
- Reportedly Clint's favorite own film, it features this gem, a CMOA in an otherwise seriously depressing movie:
Josey (bemoaning his fate as a loner): When I get to likin' someone, they ain't around long. |
- The film itself is considered one of the best Westerns ever made.
- Orson Welles compared it favorably to the works of earlier greats like Howard Hawks and John Ford.
- Was placed in the National Registry of Films in 1996.
- There are arguments over whether this film or Unforgiven is Eastwood's Magnum Opus.
- "Don't piss down my back then tell me it's raining."
- "Dyin' ain't much of a livin', boy"
- Josie's words of life and death with Ten Bears, leader of the neighboring Comanche tribe.
Josey: I ain't promising you nothing extra. I'm just giving you life and you're giving me life. And I'm saying that men can live together without butchering one another. |
- Josey Wales escaping from a posse of union soldiers on a ferry:
Jamie: They comin'. |
