Two Mules for Sister Sara (1970)

[titoli]

As an anesthetic it has some value.

[The Firecracker]

Huh, you're the first person I've ever heard of who likes that film. I find it impossible to sit through.

why?
That film is probably on my top ten.

Clint is a manipulative ass-hole in a school of sexually deprived females. whats not to like?

and i am the third one:) best Spiegel's work, by far... However, an argument about it would be a little off-topic... Let's create a TB topic, guys:)

Two Mules is quite good, but I only watched it once years ago...

Can i mention Mrs Banjo as the 4th?
Maybe its all the women power in evidence she admires

I actually saw the woman as the villians in that film really.
Clint was just trying to get in their good  graces so he could keep them from alerting the confederates that he was there...

however...his methods show that their graces was not all he was trying to get into

I only saw the last half of The Beguiled and it was freaky. I didn't see Clint being a jack*ss  in the beginning so I was wondering why the hell these women were being so evil!

[The Peacemaker]

Oh yes, and going back to the original topic, Two mules for Sister Sara was a cool movie. It wasn't great, same old stuff nothing new, but it was fun.

I've worked in an office mainly full of women and you wouldn't believe how bitchy and competative some of these girls can get-especially when trying to gain favour with a senior male colleague!
I guess in The Beguiled that its this jealous female competativeness over Clints charms taken to extremes rather than any real evil at work.The fact that its a god fearing prim & proper school for young ladies obviously smacks of hypocracy.

Lucky you!

My mom is like that, real competitive in the office.

Maybe is my catholic upbringing, but McLaine dressed like a nun is extremely more attractive than as a whore. Of course she can't compete with her looks as they were 10 years before in Artists and Models or The Apartment, still I find her tremendously sexy.   
What I don't like is Eastwood's effort to sport off a southern pronunciation which just doesn't come off. Is it a wrong impression? It reminds me of the Mick Jagger attempts at playing cockney. Also, they must have muddled up things while shooting, as part of the soundtrack was recorded live other in studio. I wonder what the movie would have looked like without Morricone's score...

I wonder about the original Boetticher script.

I think Shirley was a bit too old for the part (though she is sexy) it would have been nicer to see some cult siren, or other notorious fem in the role.

In her whore outfit she comes off looking like a battleship rather than a sleek destroyer, (Stella Stevens in build at least is more in the line of I'm thinking).

I didn't notice Eastwood with a southern accent did anybody else besides titoli think so?

[Groggy]

I haven't seen this either. . . Lord knows I've had plenty of chances to, it's just never really appealed to me.
