just saw his last western,the unforgiven, at a revival and art house, and it was as good as I remembered, but clearly 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. Is it really so different if laser beams shot out of eastwoods eyes or if he is a drug mule? one is only lightly more improbable than the other fiction.

i wonder if you would have made the same distinctions in your younger days. Forgive me for getting personal, just an interesting conversational diversion for me.

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 positive review i have ever heard about the Mule movie, so I skipped it, along with all of his other latest work., because of the reviews.

Not because i am a slave to critics , but I do use them as part of general information about a release, to, in this case, read the signs of an artist in decline.

I am glad you think otherwise, I would like to see the guy do well again, unforgiven is such a strong work , the larger themes of the work were well done ,for one thing, I enjoyed that the killer was called william munnie, set into a love story.

I was impressed at his transition to director, and the quality of his work. The last picture of his I went to see was gran torino, a good film.
