- High Plains Drifter (1973) The first of his much touted “revisionist westerns”(though, as said, the merit of that moniker is debatable), “High Plains Drifter” demonstrates that even from very early on, Eastwood had a keen understanding of his own cinematic persona – and the intelligence to see the ways he could weaponize and subvert that iconic image to explore the darker facets of the western as a whole.
- Pale Rider (1985) The four straight westerns Eastwood directed are usually all classified under the same umbrella of “revisionism,” but that’s not exactly accurate.
- Two Mules For Sister Sara (1970) Throughout their collaboration, Eastwood and Don Siegel made a few movies adjacent to the western while never quite fitting into it.
- Hang ‘Em High (1968) Eastwood began his career playing supporting roles in B-westerns before breaking big with “Rawhide,” one of the quintessential western TV shows that were so popular in the ‘50s and ‘60s and from which many a star made their name, including Steve McQueen (the type of show Tarantino wonderfully homaged in his latest film).
- 'A Fistful of Dollars' (1964) Rotten Tomatoes Score: 98% What's that saying? "1st the worst, 2nd the best?" Well, that certainly doesn't apply to the Dollars trilogy.
- 'The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly' (1967) Rotten Tomatoes Score: 97% A long-time collaborator of Eastwood is Sergio Leone. The duo has worked together on multiple projects in their collective filmography, including Once Upon A Time in the West, Duck, You Sucker, and the instantly recognizable Dollars Trilogy.
- 'Unforgiven' (1992) Rotten Tomatoes Score: 96% Unforgiven is a 1992 film more than deserving of its nearly one hundred award nominations and wins. This classic Western movie was released 32 years ago.
- 'High Plains Drifter' (1973) Rotten Tomatoes Score: 94% After almost 20 years in front of the camera, Eastwood's directorial debut came in 1971 with the release of his first behind-the-lens film, Play Misty For Me.

Star in the Dustis a Western from 1956 in which Clint Eastwood played a very small role, and it’s one of his first appearances in a Hollywood film. The movie tells the story of a Sheriff in the western town of Gunlock who has to battle with farmers and ranchers over the intended hanging of a hired killer.
Much akin to Star In The Dust, The First Traveling Salesladyis a Western comedy in which Clint Eastwood featured again in a small on-screen role. The story follows a businesswoman named Rose Gillray (Ginger Rogers), whose corset company goes bust, and she ends up having to repay several debts. She subsequently heads west along with her companion Mo...
What is perhaps Eastwood's strangest film, Paint Your Wagon,is an oddball musical Western that turns the genre's tight-lipped stoicism on its head. If a person ever wanted to see Eastwood in a lighthearted take on the lawlessness of the American Old West, this is the movie for them. He stars opposite Lee Marvin and Jean Seberg as Sylvester "Pardner...
Two Mules for Sister Sara isn’t the most well-known Clint Eastwood movie, but it still managed to captivate many fans of the genre. Set directly after the American Civil War, Eastwood stars opposite Shirley MacClaine as a soldier whose unlikely sidekick, a nun, isn’t what she seems to be. Together, the mismatched duo takes on the French invading ar...
Clint Eastwood plays Keith Williams, a swashbuckling ex-Confederate in Ambush At Cimarron Pass, a film directed by Jodie Copelan. Although the film was underwhelming at the box office, it’s widely regarded as his big break in Hollywood in a somewhat major role. The plot centers around an Army patrol unit who have to team up with a band of former Co...
Directed by John Sturges, Joe Kiddis about a former bounty hunter named Joe Kidd(Clint Eastwood) who owns a ranch in New Mexico and then proceeds to help a notorious wealthy landowner, Frank Harlan(Robert Duvall), track down a Mexican revolutionary after he learns that the group roughed up one of the workers on his ranch.
Clint Eastwood saddles up for his first Western since 1992's Unforgiven. Based on Richard Nash's 1975 novel of the same name, Cry Macho may not be the typical Clint Eastwood film, but it is a modern-day Western with much in common with similar films released in the late 2010s like Hell or Highwater and Logan. When a former rodeo star and washed-up ...
Fresh off his time in the Dollars Trilogy, Eastwood picked up this role to play an innocent man who is almost lynched at the film's beginning. A glimpse into a period in American history where it was dangerous to be a marshal, Hang ‘Em High is a classic revenge story. This revisionist Western is in the vein of the Italian Westerns Eastwood previous...
For a Few Dollars, More is the second part of the Dollars Trilogy, the popular trilogy that launched Eastwood's career globally. Reliant on the tropes that have appeared in Western movies since the genre was created, it does run into clichés at times. However, the villain of the film is absolutely wicked, a force that The Man With No Name must conf...
Clint Eastwood is the complete package. While best known for his traditional films, Eastwood has been in quite a few musicals, too. In Honkytonk Man, he plays a singer dying of tuberculosis, traveling to Nashville with his nephew. His dream is to become a famous singer, but with the Great Depression ravaging the nation, it seems almost impossible.
Sep 30, 2024 · As great as roles like Dirty Harry may be, the actor has always been at his best in the Old West -- and some films are a stronger testament to this than others. Ranging from performances as bounty hunters to vengeful spirits, Eastwood's dominance of the box office through the West has few rivals.
