Sudden Impact (1983) First Time Watching! Movie Reaction!

[@kermitlacock5930]

The waitress who gives Eastwood all the sugar is Mara Corday. She's an actress primarily from the 50s appearing in monster movies like "The Giant Claw" and "Tarantula". In that movie, Eastwood has a small part as a jet pilot. Later in life, she had financial problems as her husband died and was left with children to raise. Eastwood got her parts in some of his movies to help out.

[@robcop993]

Good catch! Mara Corday was quite the looker in her day. Her husband was Richard Long from Nanny and the Professor, The Big Valley, 77 Sunset Street and Bourban Street Beat. He died in his forties. Mara Corday (in her day) had a striking resemblence to actress Gina Gershon.

JOSEY WALES is definitely one of his very, very best as both actor and director - a sort of UNFORGIVEN that manages to both honour and critique the western mythos. A truly excellent film.

Fun Fact: Sudden Impact was developed from a script that was originally supposed to be a vigilante movie written specifically for Sondra Locke, similar to Death Wish, about a woman who is a rape victim turned vigilante who hunts down the men who assaulted her. Clint Eastwood, who was involved with Locke at the time, decided to use that script as the basis for the fourth Dirty Harry movie after rejecting the Code of Silence script.

[@LordVolkov]

A Sondra Locke Deathwish type movie would have been awesome.

I agree, Harry was about justice and right or wrong, had tunnel vision in his vigilantism with a badge.

Paul Drake is the creepy leader who gets impaled with the unicorn at the end. Paul is a close friend of mine, he said Clint didn't want to use a stunt man in their first fight scene so he had to take some hits.From then on he was always hired to get beat up or killed by the Hero. Eddie Murphy fights him in Beverly Hills Cop and Tom Skerrit kills him in Poker Alice. Also Mr. T. Fights him in the A-Team. We have a blast watching his old movies, we take shots everytime he gets punched or killed.

[@44excalibur]

Fun Fact: Sudden Impact was not originally supposed to be the fourth Dirty Harry movie. Originally, the fourth Dirty Harry movie was supposed to be Code of Silence, but Clint Eastwood rejected the script as he disliked its depiction of police officers, and Code of Silence instead became a Chuck Norris movie directed by Andrew Davis, the director of The Fugitive and Under Siege.

[@Renegade2786]

But wasn't the second film *Magnum Force* depicting some police officers as corrupt cops executing criminals who escaped punishment on technicalities? PS: But he liked the depiction of black men being crooks in the diner scene??🤔🤔

[@44excalibur]

@@Renegade2786 Yes, but in Magnum Force, that was a secret group within the police force. Code of Silence depicted a cop shooting an unarmed kid and then planting a gun on him to avoid prosecution, and when Chuck Norris' character testifies against him in court, his fellow officers refuse to assist him when he calls for backup later in the film.

[@tomstout4815]

Code of Silence is a really good chuck Norris movie

The semiauto handgun Harry uses is an AMC Auto Mag Model 180 chambered in .44 AMP with an 8.5" barrel. When his Smith & Wesson Model 29 is kicked off of a dock by Mick (Paul Drake), he replaces it with his Auto Mag for the remainder of the film. Much like the S&W Model 29 in the first film, the production crew had a very difficult time acquiring this gun, to the point where they had to contact the original designer, Harry Sanford, who had enough parts in his basement to build two guns for the film. These guns were custom made with serial numbers "CLINT-1" and "CLINT-2". The "CLINT-1" gun was left in live firing mode so Eastwood could train with it to accurately depict recoil while "CLINT-2" was converted to fire blanks for the film. It is rumored that the "CLINT-2" gun was extremely unreliable cycling blank cartridges during production, to the great consternation of Mr. Eastwood. Post-production, it was used for an episode of T.J. Hooker, where it also experienced cycling issues. It currently resides in a private collection. "CLINT-1" was retained by Mr. Eastwood.

Horace was played by Albert Popwell (RIP) and he was in the three previous Dirty Harry movies.

When he pulled that kid over, that "listen punk" was so bad ass, it parted the kid's hair.

After you've done 'The Deadpool' its worth watching 'Thunderbolt & Lightfoot'.

[@LarryFleetwood8675]

T&L (1974) is great as is The Eiger Sanction (1975).

If you want more Sandra Locke and Clint Eastwood (non- Dirty Harry, they were a couple for several years), check out The Gauntlet, Bronco Billy, and the comedies Every Which Way But Loose, and Any Which Way You Can

[@governorboltz]

Not sure if it's been suggested before, but, Sharky's Machine and Nighthawks would make for great reactions.

[@LarryFleetwood8675]

Both early '80s underrated action classics.

Harry Callahan is one of the very few men that can full on punch a woman in the face and leave the audience shrugging and feeling that it's ok.

[@arnoldriendeau3072]

There's another called the Gauntlet

[@joe66692]

You two should watch The Gauntlet with the Clint and Sandra Locke. Its about a cop trying to bring ahooker back to court. Its a very food Clint xop movie. I think you would enjoy it.

The "Jennifer" character was Clint Eastwood's real life girl for a while and was in several of his movies. The Outlaw Josey Wales, for one. Thanks guys. Ya gotta remember crime and muggings, ect., were on the rise in the 1970's. Movies starring Clint and Charles Bronson types were big hits. Rouge cops bending the rules and vigilante justice was really popular with the movie people out in Hollywood and the general public just ate it up. Eastwood turned 90 yrs. old his last birthday and Is a national treasure, as far as I am concerned. Thank you guys. Great pick and beautiful reaction. I really enjoy your style. Shoutout from Gatlinburg, Tennessee. Go w/ God. Much Peace and love, y'all.

Clint is one of those few actors who doesn't really have a bad movie to his name, although I personally think his last good one in the classic Clint sense was Blood Work (2002).

@@LarryFleetwood8675 He might tell you that Ambush at Cimmaron Pass was a bad one.

When I first saw this movie back in the days , I loved the final scene of Harry on the pier holding his gun. And all you heard was the high hat symbols of the drum. They all froze in their place , even the blond . And Harry started taking them down one by one . Reminds me of his " The Good , The Bad & The Ugly Days ". Even " UNFORGIVEN "

[@nevrogers8198]

In particular, that frame is a direct reference to Fistful of Dollars/Yojimbo, when he emerges from the mist/smoke and is just standing there.
