@@alexeilindes7507 couple different ones - still sorting out the workflow honestly

[@jonlandin2440]

Eastwood bought this script after he read it 20 years earlier, then held onto it until he was old enough to play William Munny. That is dedication to film making right there.

[@toddjohnson5176]

Didn't know that. That's awesome!👍🏽

[@MrZampanov]

And according to the writer, he didn't change a line of the script - apparently relatively unheard of.

[@hankson8]

Damn that sounds like Clint 😊

[@mattp6089]

That's a great story, as is the follow-up info from @MrZampanov about the strict adherence to said script.

[@USCFlash]

Not really true at all OP. Please stop spreading misinformation. What you wrote makes zero sense. Your claim that he had bought this 20 years before its production (1991) thus making its writing and his reading 1971 is completely wrong. The first concept of it was created by David Webb Peoples in 1976 and later finished by 1978ish. Eastwood finally heard about it, in 1981....but was warned off of it by his "people" and script readers who all agreed it was terrible. So Eastwood did not read it. At the time it had been optioned by Francis Ford Coppola, yet he could not find the financing for it and it lay dormant until Eastwood finally got around to reading it and later bought the full rights in 1985, according to David Webb Peoples. It then lay dormant for another six years. So even if we were to take the earliest possible acquisition of it, it is no earlier than 1981. Which meant that from first hearing about it to filming, was at max, 10 years and nowhere near the 20 you claim. It was also not "dedication". Eastwood himself said he wanted to do other things first, as well as not being old enough yet. This is easily found information.

True, why didn't he become a huge name after this?

[@jayhegener3028]

Superb acting by the whole cast. Every scene with the Scofield Kid. Richard Harris' palpable calculation, rage and hate when Bill offers him the gun, amongst other highlights. And, of course, Clint speaking, acting, and looking like Death incarnate at the end.

[@bluesrocker91]

That scene always reminds me of an account I heard from a British WWII veteran years ago (I don't remember his name unfortunately), describing his first and only kill of the war... "I sat down, I was violently sick, and I cried. I couldn't believe I had taken another man's life."

[@DubyaDaLastRepugPrez]

@@Jayskiallthewayski Most actors don't. Still, he had an important role in one of the greatest movies ever. That's better than what most actors achieve, unfortunately.

[@DubyaDaLastRepugPrez]

That young guy was a really talented actor. He really captured what this whole movie was about.

[@samuraiwarriorsunite]

Morgan Freeman has said on numerous occasions that his favorite Director is Clint Eastwood. Considering the caliber of directors he's worked with over his illustrious career, that's high praise indeed.

[@BigTroyT]

Almost every major actor who has worked on a film of Clint's has said the same thing. That's because Clint thinks a director should, to the extent possible, serve to help the actors. He doesn't tell actors how to do their scenes unless they ask or something clearly isn't working, and he routinely only does a single take, and if nothing went seriously wrong, they move on. He's not a Kubrick who does 80 takes so that he has 30 choices in the editing room. He respects the actors to know their job, to understand their characters and the scene, and do it right - and that's usually what happens. This means that 14 hour days are very rare, as are productions that go over schedule - most of his movies are shot in 4-5 weeks of 10-hour days and they're finished. And, famously, he doesn't yell "action!" or "cut", because when he worked on Rawhide, that would always scare the horses, which messed up the scene, and caused delays. Instead, he quietly says "whenever you're ready" and "okay, that's enough." And for all of that, his actors LOVE HIM, virtually to the last man. He's the boss, but he's not self-important to the detriment of the movie.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

@@BigTroyT That’s exactly why I think he’s the best director ever. I wish the rest of the directors in Hollywood would take notes from his efficiency of production and his relationships with his actors and crew.

[@brettfromla4055]

“I ain’t like you Will.” The character arc of the self-anointed sobriquet Scofield Kid is one I can’t remember ever seen portrayed so well. He realizes he isn’t a cold-blooded killer, while William Munny can’t escape who he really is.

[@GoSolar]

"Deserve's got nothing to do with it" is one of my favorite lines from any movie ever.

[@goldenshark3182]

Yeah, that line has stuck with me the most from this movie since I first watched it 30+ years ago.

[@leechap3]

I've always found that an odd line. Fits but I wished he said something like "Yes you do."

[@GoSolar]

@@leechap3 yes certainly that would make sense from his point of view, because 'lill Bill killed Ned. But Will is more philosophical than that. It's like when the blind kid said "he had it coming" and Will responded "we all have it coming kid." With the line "deserve's got nothing to do with it," I think Will is saying he's not going there to mete out justice. He's not pretending to say anything about who deserves what. He's just there for his own personal motivation (revenge.)

[@StephenDouthart]

[@jasonmcewen436]

The "innocent" cowboy didn't do the cutting, but he was told to hold her down and he did. In the eyes of someone like Munney, that's guilty too, and the contract was on both. As for why he calls himself ugly, he is referring to the evil things he did before his wife got him off the bottle and made him want to be a better man. Great reaction, as always. Cheers!

[@munkeysama]

Thanks for pointing that out, I've seen a few people say he didn't do anything and I was starting to doubt myself there. He held a lady so she was defenseless as someone sadistically mutilated her… that's not "innocent"!

[@haydenlindquist7006]

Wyatt Earp once said, “Fast is fine, accuracy is final. You have to be slow in a hurry.” That final shootout exemplifies that quote perfectly. Also, if you notice throughout the movie Clint’s character gives very ambiguous answers to questions. “I reckon”, “I suppose,” etc. But when Hackman says he’ll see him in Hell, the answer is a straightforward and direct “Yeah.”

[@lapelcelery42]

He's also sure of his answer when he's asked if his wife is back in Kansas at 30:00. "Yeah, she's watching over my young ones."

[@leonardofacchin1452]

That's exactly what makes the movie interesting to me, and Munny absolutely scary. In the beginning we see how clumsy he got with regards to shooting and riding, because of age and lack of practice. And that stays true for the whole movie, including during the showdown in the saloon. In the end he prevails not because he gets his skills back, but because his murderous nature - his inner "demon" if you will - comes back once his friend is killed. In the final scene Munny is determined to avenge his friend by wiping the whole bunch of cowboys out and that single-minded sense of purpose removes all the remorse and compassion that made him hesitate earlier on. He embraces his scary nature and while all the other cowboys fumble in a rushed attempt to shoot him before they are killed, Munny stone-heartedly guns them down one by one, uninterested in his own safety. That's his edge right then and there and for a time he becomes almost completely inhuman.

[@pablosonic892]

The Outlaw Josey Wales. 1976. This is neck and neck with Unforgiven as Clint's signature American western. Perfect calibration between comedy and tragedy.

[@Jayskiallthewayski]

The bar scene at the end is one of the most powerful in movie history imo.

He spent well over an hour taking pics, chatting, signing autographs. It remains one of my best memories.

10:35 Coby, that distinguished gentleman is Richard Harris. An Irish-born singer and actor, you probably best know him for singing MacArthur Park (the non-disco version...lol), as Marcus Aurelius in the movie Gladiator, or of couse as the original Dumbledore before he died and passed the role onto Michael Gambon in the Harry Potter films.

[@stevesheroan4131]

Although it gets panned by some, I think The Quick and the Dead is a fun movie, and Hackman is at just about his most menacing in that role. He is worth the price of admission alone in that flick.

[@Elerad]

@@stevesheroan4131 It's not a deep or thought-provoking film, but definitely fun, and Hackman is obviously having an absolute blast. Plus it's got such a colorful assortment of supporting characters and character actors in the roles. Keith David? Lance Henriksen, a pre-fame Russell Crowe, Gary Sinise, I mean what's not to like?

[@BigTroyT]

​@@Elerad Agreed on all counts. It's certainly not PROFOUND like Unforgiven, but it's not trying to be. It's meant to be a popcorn western with great actors playing great characters, and it does a fantastic job of that - with Hackman stealing every scene he's in, just as you would expect. And Keith David was both unexpected and glorious as the "gentleman" killer - it's one of my favorite roles he's done. Really, the weakest actor was Leo, and he wasn't bad - he just was young and not quite yet on the level of the other actors - which of course, was perfect for the character he played.

5:24 "That's not true..." How a story exaggerates in the retelling... like the stories written about English Bob, and like the stories of William Munny. Except everything about Munny is true. 40:47 I love the use of the alcohol in this scene. From the start we've heard how William has quit drinking and with it, his "wicked ways". When he learns of Ned, he takes the bottle from the kid and starts drinking - the first drink he's had in years. It's not played big, it just happens, but it shows how he's already changing back to what he was. Great simple filmmaking.

[@fearthechickenhawk2171]

I saw this film in 1992 when it first came out and was stoked because it was Eastwood. But seeing this reaction years later with maturity, it is really such a painful film to watch. It is all about choices , regrets, redemption and how violence begets more violence. It is truly a masterpiece of cinema and perhaps Eastwood's greatest film. I'd put it up there with "Citizen Kane".

[@axr7149]

This film won 4 Oscars (Picture, Director for Clint Eastwood, Supporting Actor for Gene Hackman (who played Little Bill), and Editing for Joel Cox). Clint Eastwood later won another Best Director Oscar for the incredible film MILLION DOLLAR BABY (that movie also won 4 Oscars in total: Picture, Director, Actress (Hilary Swank) and Supporting Actor (Morgan Freeman)). Funnily enough, Morgan Freeman's Oscar (his only win ever) came only one year after his SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION co-star Tim Robbins won Supporting Actor (Tim won for MYSTIC RIVER, also directed by Eastwood (and another fantastic movie)). A full circle moment, indeed. I highly recommend all of these movies.

[@LibertarianJRT]

Your commentary about the motivations of the characters, shows how they were all "the Unforgiven" because of their motivations.

This has been a favorite of mine since childhood. I'll never forget the emotions i felt when the Schofield kid shot a man down. I had seen dozens of movies where people died, hell at that point my favorite film was the hills have eyes. But the way the writing, acting and directing came together for that one scene, it really made me feel the weight of his regret. It made me understand that when someone is gone, thats it. You don't only lose a life, but all the memories that person made, all the relationships they built, the things they've done and all they ever planned to do. Every good idea or creative thought, gone within seconds. And as cool as the kid thought it all was, he learned instantaneously that he was never meant to be that kind of man.

[@stuckinarkansas1]

I thought long and hard, and it is my belief that Clint Eastwood, at this moment in time, is the greatest top to bottom movie man or person in history. Many have done it in front of the camera, and many have done it behind the camera and some have done both. But of those who do both Clint is at the Top of the list in my opinion. He ended up being a great actor, but he is an elite film maker. Combined he is the greatest.

[@kickballjedi]

I agree about the first half being slow. I actually started to watch this movie multiple times over the years, but only pushed through the last half about 10 years after it was released. I figured it was another "Dances with Wolves"... until I finally saw those last few minutes. You can see the change in Munny as he sips at the whiskey bottle while hearing about Ned. He slowly transforms into the vicious killer he used to be, totally disregarding any promises he made to his wife so he could have the power to avenge his friend. Great Reaction, you really got it. 😢

[@kristianh.pedersen2]

He does'nt transform in to a vicious killer. He always was one. He killed the young cowboy, when he was wounded and helpless, with no hesitation or regret. The regrets, if any, always comes later, when the deed is done.

[@seansteyer8851]

What is great about this movie is that it didn't glamorize the shootings of the old west, but gave it a really harsh reality to it. I mean, the final scene is amazing but, to me, the film just has a more empathetic feel to it. Like Ned not having the heart to shoot a man any more, or Clint telling them to give him a drink of water. Great film!

[@BigTroyT]

That was the point: Clint played a large part in glorifying the "killer cowboy" image in the first half of his career, and had some regret about that, and wanted to make a movie that debunks any glory of being a killer - something that shows what REALLY happens when you are a killer: you either get killed, or you lead a lonely life full of regrets. This movie does a masterful job of that.

Each time I have seen it , it still throws hidden messages out that I did not see previously. Thankyou have a good day.

Many thanks !

I always loved how the story of the women who got mutilated, became more gruesome with everyone who told it, just like all the stories that came out of the old West, they were embellished and made the old West the romanticized version we know now.

[@madmark1957]

At the time that this movie was made the western had fallen out of favour and very few westerns were being made. Along came Clint Eastwood and made Unforgiven, a revisionist western with a stellar cast and more down beat themes and plot. It had a more authentic feel than most westerns and it completely revitalised the genre. So in many ways this was a film with huge significance.

[@lewismaddox4132]

Remember what English Bob said about trying to assassinate a King or Queen. "You're hand will wither and you won't be able to hold or aim your weapon." Notice the two men in the rain who had a bead on William Munny? "You shoot him! No, you!" Equating that sense of "Awe" to both royalty and legend.

[@bluesrocker91]

Notice also how the Kid's hand shakes as he takes the shot... I suppose the point is that ultimately it doesn't matter whether it's a king or queen, or just a "no-good cowboy" taking a dump in an outhouse. It's still taking a human life.

This western Clint Eastwood movie is an absolute masterpiece.

[@scottyarthuraustralia7567]

A real western an epic is a 1989 1990 mini series called lonesome dove with Robert Duvall, Tommy Lee Jones, Diane Lane and Angelica Houston. The book and script was so good these Hollywood stars accepted to do it in a time pre Soprano's when it was considered taking a step down to play a roll in TV.

Clint Eastwood is my favorite actor and director, he’s my hero.

[@deekay3064]

One of my favorite movies of all time. The very end…worth the watch just for that…it took my breath away.

[@eschiedler]

Summer of 92 I remember the hype because the billboards just had a pic of Eastwood and my birthday (the film release date). Nothing else. Culturally, the film hit at the right moment.

[@TD-mg6cd]

The time frame here is shortly after Prsident Garfield was shot, July 2, 1881, but before he died in Sptember.

[@FrowningIke]

34:50 I've always found it funny that in some Westerns they have the clip-clop of horses hooves on dirt. 😂

[@brandonflorida1092]

You're a very good reactor. I enjoyed that. Thanks! "Unforgiven" won four Academy Awards, including Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor for Gene Hackman, and Best Film Editing. It has also been selected for preservation in the United States National Film Registry. Clint Eastwood composed the film's score himself, using a mix of traditional Western instruments and more contemporary sounds Oh, English Bob was the first Albus Dumbledore.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

To be accurate, Clint’s longtime composer, Lennie Niehaus composed most of the score. Clint only composed the main theme.

[@adamscott2219]

Thank you for recognising how brilliant Clint Eastwood is. I’ve watched a massive amount of his movies and every one of them has been worth watching, entertaining and often just brilliant. He seems to instinctively know the elements people want in a movie and delivers that in spades. Critics often gave him a hard time especially earlier in his career without understanding that the average person has much different tastes to them. Hard working people want to know when they fork out to see a movie that it’s going to entertain them and make them feel something during it and at the end. Clint Eastwood was the guy that consistently gave them that. Like all great art his movies have matured gracefully whilst also painting a social picture of the time in which they were set and also sometimes the year that he made them. Whilst most of the artsy, niche movies the critics loved have disappeared into the sands of time Clint’s work has withstood that test and he’s come out on top in the end. Clint is a hard working actor/director/producer right up to this day and he makes movies because he loves it which always comes through in everything he does.

[@Coolrockndad]

This movie won the Oscar for Best Movie of the Year in 1993.

[@nlading]

Coby, I saw this in the theater in 1992. One of my favorite movies of all time. Thank you for providing an excellent reaction.

[@criminalcontent]

Thanks for watching !

[@briankettleson290]

I like how this movie shows how the news traveled back then. Word of mouth changed from one person to another, across the distance.

[@javix2013]

Clint Eastwood announced that he is about to retire, he will make his last film and that will be it. It was a moment that in recent years I saw coming, he is 93 years old, he stretched his career enough when others would have retired at the age of 80 or less.

[@tcanfield]

Thanks for passing on his announcement. Figured he might be. Ever check his Wiki profile ? Probably the most interesting one I’ve read. The opposite of “non-stop to the top”.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

It’s crazy that despite getting universally positive reviews, Clint’s last film “Juror Number Two” didn’t get the nationwide theatrical release it really deserved; they didn’t even put it up for an Oscar campaign. That’s completely disrespectful to Clint who’s been with them and made lots of money for them for half a century!

[@seangilmore6695]

Life isn't a gift, it's a debt. We all pay in the end for the time borrowed.

[@dillydog1053]

Thanks For that reaction Coby. Loved watching this movie through your eyes full of your thoughts and emotions (couple of teary eyed moments that I shared with you). I just stumbled upon your channel as this video was on my homepage. Yes, love Clint Eastwood and what he always brings to the screen. His legacy will be shown to generations forever. I am now a fan and subscriber and hope to experience more with you soon. Thanks again! Kudos.

thanks for the sub ! more eastwood to come

​@@criminalcontent I'll be looking forward to your reaction to _the Outlaw, Josey Wales_

[@danielb2993]

Pale Rider is another great Clint Eastwood western.

[@joepangia4413]

Gene Hackman was a real life Bada$$ He like R Lee Ermey (The DI in Full Metal Jacket) acquired their man’s man persona and acting ability in The United States Marine Corps. Both served their country honourably as Drill Instructors on “Paradise Island” playing a role and Preparing a new group of brave young men every 13 weeks for combat as they taught them what it meant to be a Marine! Semper Fi

[@adamelam6385]

Clint Eastwood will always be my favorite action star of all time.

[@goldenshark3182]

I’m surprised no one’s mentioned the dedication at the end of the credits to Sergio and Don. If you don’t know, that’s Sergio Leone and Don Seigel, the directors who helped make Eastwood a superstar with the Spaghetti westerns and Dirty Harry films among others, and they inspired and taught Eastwood everything they knew about directing.

[@thewickedwalker4983]

The coolest & most iconic western ever made... THE GOOD, THE BAD & THE UGLY 😎

[@gunman462]

I seen it first at ten years old and could never like the other two films after that.

[@shaneferris6742]

There's 2 old Clint Eastwood movies that are just a bit of fun, They aren't deep like Clint's creations. I've never seen a reaction to either of them. 'Every which way but loose', and, 'Every which way you can', are classics.

[@TheBeatenPaths]

He's the last of our true Hollywood legends. No one else alive in today's Hollywood will match him, John Wane, John Ford, Humphry Bogart, or the likes.

[@scarlton3232]

Another gem. It’s a great bookend to all of his westerns.

[@kpas22105]

One of the few movies to show the effect of taking another person's life.
