- Will Munny — Unforgiven. Will Munny is Clint Eastwood's best role for the simple reason that nobody else could've played him, not even a 10-years-younger Clint Eastwood; the David Webb Peoples script gathered dust in his desk for a simple reason: "I thought I should do some other things first."
- Harry Callahan — Dirty Harry. No role has deeper cemented the public image of Clint Eastwood than "Dirty" Harry Callahan. Irresponsible violence. Hushed bravado.
