This is the rare time we've ever posted an episode on Labour Day, but this movie DOES star the man who has to do "every dirty job". Harry Callahan is the quintessential good guy with a gun who has to combat a bad guy with a gun, but Harry is also a reckless vigilante in the Batman mode. This movie is also pretty much just a sadist chasing a sadist around San Francisco. Dirty Harry might be fascist and it might even be dangerous, but that doesn't take away the flick's visceral entertainment value. It's a complicated movie about a complicated issue. Don Siegel directs Clint Eastwood in perhaps his signature role, but are they just pedaling right-wing propaganda in this crime classic? How does the movie play after last year's #BLM and "Defund The Police" movements took America by storm? We had plenty to say about all that. So enjoy your hour with the 407th Ellises' Analysis because the world isn't getting any better and all us punks could use a little escape into fantasy right about now. Well, Actually: Popeye Doyle is indeed one of AFI's Top 50 Heroes (he ranked 44th). Also, Eastwood only directed Sudden Impact in the Dirty Harry series.
