Dirty
Harry
Dirty Harry started it all. At the time of it’s release
never had there been such a hard hitting,
gritty cops and robbers movie filmed. Some might argue Bonnie and
Clyde filled the bill, but
watching it paled in comparison. Clint Eastwood wasn’t the
first choice to star as Harry Callahan.
Frank Sinatra and Charles Bronson were just a couple of the
producers choice. Funny to think
how different Dirty Harry would have been without Clint Eastwood in
the starring role.
Eastwood’s movie Coogan’s Bluff was one catalysts in
getting him the part as Dirty Harry.
So, here is a little history and a simple straight forward
trivia all about the great movie Dirty Harry.
Do you feel lucky? Well do ya punk?
