» The Searchers
"Injun will chase a thing till he thinks he's chased it enough. Then he quits. Same way when he runs. Seems like he never learns there's such a thing as a critter that'll just keep comin' on.

6/15 - 6/21
» Hang 'em High
This is the first of many highly rated films produced by Eastwood's Malpaso Production Company. They made two mistakes. They hung the wrong man and they didn't finish the job. “Well, I don't care how you slice it - whether there's nine men out in the plains with a dirty rope or a judge with his robe on in front of the American flag - those boys are going to be just as dead as if they'd been lynched.” (1968)

» Three Days of the Condor
Robert Redford plays a CIA Agent in a tight spot. "You're sorry? You're sorry. Oh, I get it. I get it. You expect me to draw fire, like one of those penny arcade bears that parades back and forth waiting for somebody, somebody very good just to take another shot, and you're just gonna hang around and pick him up just before he does it? Or just after?" (1975)
