Dirty Harry 4K 1971

Harry.

The legendary character played by Clint Eastwood, who went through 5 movies hand in hand with his huge Magnum - a huge revolver, which is enough to crack whole nuts. A policeman whose attitude to criminals and methods of educational work with them earned him the notoriety of a cruel and unstoppable man, for which he received the nickname “Dirty”.

He once had a wife, but now he is alone and devotes himself entirely to his work. If he says he followed the suspect in his spare time, there is reason to wonder if he has been following him all his time. Harry is so caught up in the world of crime that someday this world will take him over completely, and only when he sees a naked girl in the window, he involuntarily sighs, “You should remember the joys of life someday, too, Harry.”

No need to explain that Clint Eastwood simply lives his role. Worth a lot of money.

San Francisco.

The actual location. A hilly Californian metropolis with a famous bridge. On the one hand it reminds Miami, and many viewers will definitely want to compare it with places of action, for example, the old TV series Turner and Hutch (it is on which Ben Stiller successfully “walked” in the same name production) and other similar pictures. But one “BUT.” This is San Francisco. It's sunny, it's bright, but here they rape little girls, here they kill for nothing, here they can beat up even a police officer, taking him for a random passerby. That melancholy, inspired by the foggy landscapes and the neon of evening San Francisco makes you realize that this is a different city.

The timing of the action.

As one marvelous collection of music says: “Wow! That was the 70's. Yeah, yeah. Tights. Such naive jazz compositions. In general, to savor and tell a knowledgeable person all the delights of those times is even somehow uncomfortable. There are two options: like it or not. You feel a certain nostalgia or vice versa. Do you want to be in that time for a day or do you want to be sick of it?
