just saw his last western, at a revival house, and it was as good as I remembered, but not a leave the show with a happy skip and whistle effort.
As for spaceships and all the rest, it really is how far you want to suspend reality,
After all , one would never see a multi millionaire actor of the status of clint eastwood driving drug mule runs for extra cash. John wayne never killed a bunch of guys because he was an unbeatable gunfighter, etc. It just depends on the fiction one selects, and it's all fiction, outside of documentaries.
I have enjoyed eastwood's work ever since his days on the TV show wagon train, where he played, who else, Rowdy Yates, scout.
Yours is the only thing positive i have ever heard about the Mule movie, so I skipped it, along with all of his latest work., because of the reviews.
Not because i am a slave to critics , but use them as part of general information about a release, to read the signs of an artist in decline.
I was impressed at his transition to director, and the quality of his work. The last picture of his I went to was gran torino, a good film.
