Awhile back I binged on Clint Eastwood spaghetti westerns and included Alfredo. Not a bad movie.
I just watched the 2nd half of the Outlaw Josie Wales a couple nights ago. All time Classic.
My favorite western of all time. One of the most quotable, too.

btw You remind me of a guy that used to be on here named PeterT. Any else remember him?
This is the first forum I've joined in 17 years...promise I'm not Pete :lol:

I'm really hoping for no 9th inning thrillers against the O's. A badass gunslinger is ridin' across the desert. Cue the million mile zoom-in to Rico Garcia on horseback with a mean look in his eyes. Hahahaha

The one above is Sam peckinpah with Warren Oates. It's a weird little movie. It's like a Mexican road trip with plenty of violence, Oates driving around literally with a guys head in a bag. He's trying to collect a bounty a gangster had put on it.. Wacky adventures with Warren and his head, great movie

Apparently it got a lot of harsh reviews at the time. But Ebert gave it 4 stars. Kind of illuminates the difference between a great critic and an elitist snob writing for some New York publication.

Warren Oates !!!! Sargeant Hulka in Stripes, one of the best comedies ever. "Chicks dig me because I rarely wear underwear But when I do, it is usually something unusual"

I bought this used CD collection of Spaghetti westerns at Half-price books 20 or so years ago. These were ones that very few people would have ever seen or heard of. I have to say, it was a very unique genre and super gritty testosterone-driven material. Some of the weirdest stuff I've ever seen as well

I've made several memes of Clint Eastwood quotes put into other films of his. I think you guys will like this one (Gran Torino).

That's really interesting, nice article. I really can't blame someone for hating it, it's a bizarre movie. It's interesting to be able to recall it now after reading that. That's right, he doesn't actually kill the guy, he digs him up. Peckinpah conveys how disgusting the head is becoming, peoples reaction to it, the flies, Oates talking to it. It's basically the costar of the movie
