Van Horn probably worked with Eastwood longer than anyone.. Eastwood must be having a bad 12 months. A great deal of people have passed away in the technical and acting realm as well....

By Pat Saperstein

Wayne ?Buddy? Van Horn, veteran stuntman who worked with Clint Eastwood on over 30 films and directed ?Any Which Way You Can? and ?The Dead Pool,? died May 11, according to an obituary notice in the Los Angeles Times. He was 92.

Sometimes credited as Wayne Van Horn, he started working with Eastwood as a stunt double in 1967, and continued working as a stunt coordinator on his films up until ?J. Edgar? in 2011.  He also directed three movies starring Eastwood: ?Any Which Way You Can,? ?The Dead Pool? and ?Pink Cadillac.? 1980?s ?Any Which Way You Can? was the sequel to James Fargo?s ?Every Which Way but Loose,? and 1988?s ?The Dead Pool? is the fifth and final film in the ?Dirty Harry? series, also starring Patricia Clarkson, Liam Neeson and Jim Carrey in his first dramatic film role.

Buddy Van Horn was arguably one of the greatest collaborators of Clint Eastwood.
Even if they worked in Lady Godiva (1955), their collaboration really started with Coogan?s Bluff (1968).
The last time that they worked together was for J.Edgar (2011).
That long time collaboration between Clint and Buddy Van Horn was probably matched with the one between Clint and editor Joel Cox.

RIP Buddy Van Horn. Interesting to see that his only movies as a director were for Clint. Obviously the two got along well considering how much they worked together over the years.

Arlene Golonka who played the prostitute in Hang Em' High also passed away a few days ago. A really cute and perky actress who probably made more tv appearances in the 60's and 70's than any actress....

Clint like working with him because he was so good at Stunts.
