The Outlaw Josey Wales - 1976 - 3 Stars

Actors: Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke
Director: Clint Eastwood

That's it, I'm not watching another Clint Eastwood movie for a long time. I enjoyed The Outlaw Josey Wales as a piece of fluff, which is to say, probably not the way that it should be enjoyed. Eastwood movies' characterizations are always awful - if we don't know exactly what a character is like within their first two lines, Eastwood thinks he's done a bad job. Now while these characters sometimes change, most of them don't.

I did like Eastwood's use of light and dark in this film, though - at the very least, it's much better than The Eiger Sanction.
