Western Wednesday: High Plains Drifter

Awesome western with Clint Eastwood.  Hell, he directed this too.   He plays the man with no name.  He comes into town like a badass.  It's a typical setup.  The town gets bullied by crooks and well, you know the drill, our main cowboy has to take care of business.   Besides that, Eastwood's character was a bit different from his other cowboy roles. He is still cool and all but there's some scenes where they show his animal side (an almost rape scene with a lovely lady).  All this movie needed was some Ennio Morricone music. 
Good old solid typical western.  A few good shootouts.   Love the ending.
