Description:

Amazon.com:
As both an actor and a director, Clint Eastwood has had a string of unparalleled critical and commercial successes, from his trademark Westerns to the Dirty Harry action films. This set of six Eastwood films captures the actor as both cowboy and cop, from the 1970s to the '90s. Eastwood ventured into new territory with 1971's The Beguiled, a creepy and seductive thriller about an injured Civil War soldier who causes strife at an all-girls school. While there, he tempts an innocent girl (Elizabeth Hartman), and engages in an unnerving battle of the minds with the school headmistress (Geraldine Page, at her tortured best). The same year, Eastwood burst onto screens with Dirty Harry. This action blockbuster introduced the world to Harry Callahan while making waves with its aggressive violence and nonstop thrills. Eastwood himself helmed the vigilante Western The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) as well as the comedy Bronco Billy (1980), which films show Eastwood at different ends of the cowboy spectrum: a vengeful family man seeking revenge and an amiable traveling showman who runs a Wild West extravaganza, respectively.
With his Oscar-winning film Unforgiven, Eastwood showed himself as the master of the revisionist Western, crafting a morally complex tale of Western justice that turns the notion of good guys and bad guys on its head. And he proved he still had star status with the thriller In the Line of Fire, playing an aging FBI agent who takes on a cunning psycho (John Malkovich) determined to assassinate the president. While this selection doesn't feature any Sergio Leone Westerns or Eastwood's later acclaimed dramas, it remains a great snapshot of a long and illustrious career. --Mark Englehart

Spanning 23 years of Eastwood's brilliant career as both an actor and director, this 6 film set is a fabulous representation of his work. If you are a big Eastwood fan though, you probably have most of these films in your collection by now. Even if you don't, I did the Math on the current prices of the individual fims, and there is no break for buying them in this set. Prices change though, so you should check it out if you are considering this at a much later date then this review. So if you don't ... Read More

I can't quite decipher the complaints about this set. Some of Eastwood's greatest movies are collected here, or at least some of his most interesting. "In the Line of Fire" and "Dirty Harry" are considered classics of their kind. "Bronco Billy" is an oddity, sure, but one of Eastwood's most unusal, and sweetest, films. "The Beguiled" is a fascinating Gothic mood piece, almost a Tennessee Williams exercise about sexual repression and jealousy, set in a most unlikely time and place. "Unforgiven" ... Read More

I like Clint Eastwood both as an actor and as a director. Collection presented in this box set only touches his real genius. This is a great way to make you buy the movies that you really don't want to own. I'm more of his western part fan and I would prefer to see more such movies put in (accutally it does exists as a separate set). But if you are die hard Clint fan you would have to buy the unwanted movies anyhow so it's all good. Good set, nicely done with many options. Before you buy it just make ... Read More

Clint Eastwood has a wide range of acting capability. IN this collection which includes: The Beguiled, Bronco Billy, Dirty Harry, In the Line of Fire, The Outlaw Josey Wales, and Unforgiven many of those abilities are represented. To answer comments below, I see Hang Ém High and many other of Clint's westerns on TBS - - they love them too. But this collection has ones that are not commonly seen: The Beguiled - - is a wonderful eerie western. Bronco Billy - - Clint with a sense of humor and circus ... Read More

This selection of 6 DVDs, The Beguiled, Bronco Billy, Dirty Harry, In the Line of Fire, The Outlaw Josey Wales, and Unforgiven, is a poor sampling of his work. Hang'm High would've better represented his earlier work. Bronco Billy is one of his worst films! Any Which Way But Loose would've been a far superior choice. The others are good works, but I will avoid this collection in preference of buying my favorite individual titles.
