General Discussion / Why did he become producer in the 70s?

« on: October 28, 2014, 12:09:25 AM »

Not that theres anything wrong with that, seems like after he was done with his awesomeness he figured "i've done too much awesome, time to make others have the same level of awesome..."

Was a scary flick. Good environment though especially when they're all in the long table talking about stuff in the mansion. never got why William Walker just hangs around bars and fights on his off time (?)

Anyone think GBU's stature will only rise now, each time someone in a movie goes off it attains more mythical status . someone rapper once said that "you're worth more if you're in jail or dead" and this goes true …
When Eastwood goes the movie will seem way more mythical than it is.

Kind of obvious question. Neither of his parents from the pics had them so it was not genetic or was it?

Forgot completely to add the Prologue of Fistful that was made later i adore it so much, love it Harry Dean Stanton rules it, and the James Bond M type of briefing is cool too, yes while not part of what the man with no name is supped to be blah blah, i don't really care it's a good idea.

I too love the dollars for them being just simple stories, apart from the whole dying of the west/political/childhood motifs of his next trilogy.

Hahah gasping in disbelief!
Yeah i did read the bio, he had someone read The Hoods to him.

Which begs the question: He was not book smart, but VERY street smart. So how can WE be street smart? Any dumby can go sit and read a book. Because we all want to be like him.

Yeah maybe in the 70s he did so but before that definitely not. He definitely gained intelligence through his keen and word of mouth nature. Wish i was like that to, i always craved to have his sharp people skill to help me through life however he had it but all i could do is just sigh, and just tell others the good news of Leone.
