I saw this movie 3 times or so, but the last time it just hit me.....these are the best opening scenes to any movie. This is my 1st post, and I'm sure everyone is very familiar with the movie, but is it just me or is this the best start to a movie? And it's not just the scenes, but the direction, and especially the acting. From the 3 tough guys, especially the leader, to the barber, to the broad. What great acting! They are so good! I cant' get tired of seeing or thinking about that beginning. Of course, it's very cool from a guys point of view.

Thanks for the welcome, KC. Clint did some good acting there at the beginning too, but it almost seems like he was the "straight" man, and the others were the ones who really acted out their parts around him. That's what really made this opening scene the best. The little mannerisms of the lead tough guy, nervous and intimidated, yet trying to be intimidating. The excitement, and nervousness, of the barber, his expressions. But the broad really made that scene. "....and the manners of a goat!" And Clint was just so cool too....never intimidated, no worries; just so self-assured. I guess that's why we love this guy in the 1st place.

My post said I think this is the best beginning, the best opening scenes to a movie, not just because this is Clint, but the scenes, the action, the acting, and it's just so cool. High Plains Drifter is so darn bad (good)! I would like to see or know about a better opening or start to a movie, not just a Clint Eastwood movie. So people, am I just plain right in my assertation, or is there something better out there?
