There's video of an unaired pilot of The Orson Welles Show with Burt Reynolds, Angie Dickinson, and The Muppets. Used to be on Youtube but it's been pulled.

True, but the narrator is basically singing from the sisters' perspective. It's as if he's a 3rd person with access to both of their minds, repeating things from their respective points of view.
That's Albert Popwell - probably a friend of Clint - and he's in every Dirty Harry film (in a completely differet role) except for Dead Pool.
I'm sure that was deliberate on Eastwood's part. The orignal draft of the script envisioned Harry and Scorpio as two sides of the same coin. They both liked to kill but for different reasons and that's why Harry was "Dirty Harry". It's underscored in the scene where Harry tells the Mayor and cops he's sure Scorpio…

That was great, but he should have stuck with just the clips from Death Wish. Plenty of material there.
Joe is outstanding. It's not just a hippie killfest - it's an interesting depiction of American class differences (as opposed to race, religion, etc.) Amazing it's not more well known.
Definitely the funniest (except for ending). Harry going through sensitivity training was a stroke of genius.
It was Ebert. And he also discussed how many Hollywood stars such as Eastwood have larger heads than the average person. I just watched the Siskel & Ebert special on the Dirty Harry films on Youtube a few days ago.
And "Paint Her Mouth" is even the name of one of parts of Herbie Hancock's amazing score.
Not just the simplicity but the fact that is was "A Siegel Film". Don Siegel knew how to make a lean, well-paced film (see: Charley Varrick).
One interesting thing about Dirty Harry is that he was supposed to be portrayed as the flip side of Scorpio - they both like killing people, albeit for different reasons. Harry "gets" Scorpio, telling the mayor and higher ups that knows Scorpio will kill again because "he likes it." Clint was so damn charismatic in…
Don't know if it's been mentioned already but this anecdote about Death Wish is a thing of beauty:
Exactly right. That tape - and the actions which led to it - don't make anyone look good. A firm like HHM would not want that kind of press, even if they were the wronged party. I'm still betting a deal will be made, Jimmy becomes Saul, and Mesa Verde will be back at HHM. And Kim will ride off into the sunset.
This would also call back to Jimmy promising to quit law altogether several episodes back - something Chuck has wanted all along.
I'm betting he cuts some sort of deal with Chuck: he'll stop practicing as a McGill - thus preserving the family name in the legal community - in exchange for Chuck sitting on the evidence. Probably involves getting Mesa Verde back to HHM too.
Similarly, Dirty Harry, as originally written, was supposed to portray Harry and Scorpio as essentially two sides of the same coin: they're both nuts, in their own way. The "do you feel lucky?" speech was intended to illustrate this - just like Scorpio, he kind of likes fucking with people. And that is why he was…

"There's a clear delineation from the style of the 60's and 70's entries he worked on and the ones that he didn't." Exactly right. Even the most ridiculous Bond films he worked on (Moonraker, for example) were memorable due to his involvement.
After working with Kubrick, Adam needed something light and made made the batshit crazy "Salon Kitty" with Tinto Brass.
