Misty, if you want to bold something, you use these tags... one in the front and the one with the slash at the end of what you want bolded: [ b] [ /b]  

The only way for the tags to show is if I place a space in the tag... when you want to use them, you should have no spaces inside the brackets [].

To italicize, you use these tags: [ i] and end with [ /i].  Any other questions you have can be asked off the board so we don't get too off topic in this thread.

How about Pardner from Paint your Wagon?
"I talk to the trees..." ;D ;D
Seriously.Clint`s best character`s are Dirty Harry,the man with no name(or Blondie or Joe or Manco)and Philo Beddoe.
There are lots of good characters but in mediocre films.For example Tom Highway.
Just watched The Heartbreak Ridge and thought that they have wasted good character in that movie.

Tough to narrow this list down.  Here's my best effort:

Man With No Name
Harry Callahan
Ben Shockley
Bronco Billy McCoy
Wes Block
John Wilson
Will Munny
Robert Kincaid
Frank Horrigan

If I absolutely had to make it shorter, I'd cut the last two names on the list first.

I am pleased to see Philo Beddoe included in several peoples lists ( shame on you Matt  ;) ) No matter what you think of the movies Mr Beddoe is one of the more emotional people Clint has played . A man with more range to his make up than say Harry who we only feel we have scratched the surface with.

Having said all that if I had to choose just one it would have to be Dirty Harry. Philo and Josey very close by .



Philo .

Sorry Philo.  I feel shamed to have not included Josey Wales... I was trying to keep the list short, but he should have been on it.

It would be a lot easier to list least favorite Eastwood characters, and most of them would be in the 1968-1970 period, and everything after Bridges.
