"Dyin' ain't much of a livin', boy" is one of the greatest lines ever written.
Buzzards got to eat the same as worms
That line should make AFI's Top 100 movie quotes.
Still one of Clint's BEST movies, mostly due to the simplistic story of revenge, but also the WONDERFUL characters and the fact that the Native Americans in the movie were played by actual Native Americans that were THRILLED by the way they were being represented in the movie. In fact, a lot of Native American groups PRAISED not only the use of actors, but the way their characters were being "realistic" more than "romanticized".
And one of the most impressive scenes with an actor that had the SHORTEST amount of time on scene with "Ten Bears". And the way their conversation boils down to "We have lost too much and had so much taken away from both of us due to war. Can't you and I hold onto this little bit of piece we have left to us?"
Clint, despite having this reputation as a right-wing figure, was 'woke' or did things woke ppl say they care about long before it was fashionable to be, but quietly and not using it to draw attention to himself
@@helvete_ingres4717 Eastwood is the furtherest thing from "woke", and has publicly mocked the "political correctness" in today's society describing it as a "p***y generation".
He has always been a "libertarian" which is defined as "the government should have less control over people's lives. It is based on the idea of maximum liberty. Libertarians believe that it is usually better to give people more free choice".
Piant your wagon ❤❤❤
Always loved Pale Rider too!
@@helvete_ingres4717
Let’s not forget that “wokeness” began when Europeans left Europe and brought it to this continent!
Eastwood did this film as an answer to the Vietnam war.
Americans are used to “Indians” being villains they forget that indigenous peoples saved them from starvation and cannibalism when they arrived on the continent.
It’s white Americans who hide and ignore history, not the indigenous.
Their cultures are thousands of years old whereas white Americans are still immigrants by their ignorance of this country.
When the boy said "I aint scared no more" meant that he was ready to die..knew it was his time..and he went out like a man.RIP kid.
He was an excellent character
"This boy was born into a time of fighting and dying. He never questioned a bit of it. He never turned on his kin or his kind. I rode with him, I got no complaints." best eulogy ever.
"Hell is coming for breakfast", "Governments don't live together,People live together"," It's sad that governments are chiefed by the Devil tongues". Great writing and acting something that is sadly missing in the movies today.
I don't think it's as much of writers and actors not having the talent. I think it's that Hollywood took a hard stand into making their films and shows "teach us a lesson" or drive some social movement. The talent's there. It's just not being utilized in the best way possible - hence many of these movies lately not scoring well. My movie/tv watching time is to get away from things for a few hours. Not to be constantly reminded as to how I can "better" myself in certain peoples' eyes.
@@mil2k11 I'd have to disagree, Clint is one of the last Hollywood greats and once they are gone look what we are left with, a bunch of woke snowflakes trying desperately not to offend anyone, they'll remake Dirty Harry with a tranny as Dirty Dick, it really will be Holyweird
Good lines, especially "Get ready little lady. Hell is coming to breakfast". To offer a correction, Ten Bears says "double tongues", not devil tongues. The Indians were accustomed to promises by the government that were later broken. Its why Ten Bears said, "There is iron in your words of death for all Comanche to see, so there is iron in your words of life", because Josey was willing to put his own life at risk to convince Ten Bears of his intentions. Josey was honoring what he promised with his life and Ten Bears had respect for that, because he would do the same. As he said, "The words of Ten Bears carries the same iron of life and death". "It shall be life". Hands down, this is the best Western I have ever seen.
Hi Dawn, I highly recommend Clint Eastwood in Kelly's Heroes (1970) it's a WWII action comedy set in the aftermath of D-Day, in which he leads a platoon of US soldiers on a quest to steal nazi gold hidden behind enemy lines. It also stars maggot & number 2 out of The Dirty Dozen as 2 very different sergeants and it has vibes of that movie. Please check it out for the channel asap :)
i 2nd that
I second that too
@@Acebets70 I second you second and raise you a Lee Marvin in "The Big Red One".
Kelly's Heroes is an underrated classic. The most 'subversive' film Eastwood ever made.
@@williewilliams6571 Will you stop it with those negative waves, man! :D
The salesman was called "Mr. Carpetbagger" by Josey. This was a common and derisive name for Northerners who showed up after the war with big schemes to sell things (often scams and snake oil) to the already-impoverished South. The name "carpetbagger" was a mockery of the kind of person who would carry all their belongings, not in a suitcase, but in an easy, open-topped bag made of the same thick fabric that carpet was made of. Just the kind of thing you'd carry if you had to get out of town quickly when your scheme fell apart.
Carpetbaggers also went south to try and get land cheap because of the south being in such economic turmoil after the civil war.
Just think Donald Trump.
@@stevefoulston more so Hillary Clinton, as she moved to NY solely to be elected to the senate. To apply that term to Trump is just another lie.
Cant we have one video without politics 3:50
@@boblester8641 hey, I'm just fixing sn erroneous definition of carpetbagger.
“Pay me when ya see me Josey Wales” is one of my favorite movie lines of all time.
He was already 46 in 1976. And to believe. This is one of my favorite movies. "Dyin' ain't much of a livin', boy.
Dawn, "Dixie" was a nickname and a song associated with the South, especially during the Civil War. "Oh, I wish I was in the land of cotton, Old times there are not forgotten, look away, look away, look away, Dixieland." In several movies, you might hear it played on a wooden flute or recorder. It was popular around the time of the beginning of the Civil War and was written by Daniel Decatur Emmett in 1859 and was eventually adopted by the Confederacy as it's anthem. Always a barrel of fun watching your reactions!
It was the song the ferry man was singing while with Josey. He then switched to Battle Hymn of the Republic (Northern song) when the union troops came.
Elvis done a good job of it, american trilogy
President Lincoln was a huge fan of Dixie.
@@thomast8539 It's a catchy tune.
Best part about Dixieland is that it was written by a Northerner for a minstrel show. The most quintessential song of the South is a contribution from the North.
This movie and Jeremiah Johnson (Robert Redford) are among my favorites. There’s just something so real about the characters in both of them. I watch them anytime I can find them…
I know that feeling as well. They are always worth seeing any time I could.
Jeremiah Johnson was based in a real character named John "Liver-Eating" Johnson, and Josey Wales could've been a real person, because it's quite historically accurate. That's why both feel real
Josey Wales is a great movie but Jeremiah Johnson is my an time favorite western
JJ is a great movie, grows on you. I doubt it would be to her liking though.
Jeremiah Johnson is one of my all time favorite movies I’ve seen it at least 15 times
"To hell with them fellas....buzzards gotta eat same as worms." My fav line from this movie. Such a classic.
Yes, great line
just put the same line.
I think this is Clint's best film (over Unforgiven) and should be on any short list of best Westerns. Yes, it's violent, but it takes several unexpected turns and delivers wonderfully. John Vernon had one of the best voices ever.
Its between this and Unforgiven as Clint's best, and they keep switching spots each time I watch them!
You're right, but I lean toward Josey Wales, because that was Clint in his prime.@@kenjisparks
@@frankbolger3969 you really can't go wrong with either film!
I agree. 'Unforgiven' is so dark. This movie at least offers some hope.
@@kenjisparks What if Josey Wales is William Munny? both from Missouri, approximately the same time and age (this was perhaps 15 or less? years before Unforgiven /1880, ACW ended in 1865), also a very young wife.... except Josey is not drunk (but he likes whiskey)
This is my all-time favorite movie. My favorite line, "Dyin' ain't much of a livin' boy. You can just ride on."
Every line in the movie is a great quote. I love this movie.
Also, when the kid asked about burying the bushwhackers they hod just shot:
"To hell with them; buzzards gotta eat same as the worms"
My favorite line is from Chief Dan George - “Endeavor to persevere”
It is a master piece on so many levels and yet is never talked about or rarely reacted to.
When you thought Josey was a woman and said "Why is she an outlaw and not in the kitchen instead" I couldn't stop laughing for a couple of minutes! Your videos are so fun to watch and I look forward to them every time. I think you were made to entertain and make people laugh because you do it so well. Thanks for sharing yourself with us and no other reaction videos come close to being as entertaining as yours. Happy holidays to you and your loved ones.
Agreed.
She’s got the best balance of genuinely entertaining as a personality and the most film literate selections among all the reaction channels.
She’s exploring classics and not just playing follow the leader with the other channels or whatever the latest trending thing is.
I was confused at first, It has been a while since I watched this movie, but I didn't remember any women outlaws. Clint must be upset he was thought a girl.
Same here.
Well John Wayne was called Marrion 😅
It's basically another shortened version for Joseph. So odds are little Josey was a Jr.
In my culture ( American Indian / Native American ). The cutting of hands and shaking of hands. Is very symbolic. The mixing of blood, becoming of one. In friendship, respect and honor. Creating a bond as if you were from one mother. Now Blood Brothers.
Inawashté Kola, A'ho.
Interesting since the concept of Blood Brothers and the cutting of hands etc was an invention by German writer Karl May
The concept of “Blood Brothers” coming from a Native American culture hinges on a faulty premise. The belief that “blood” equals belonging and relationship. This is not the case in most Native cultures. It certainly isn’t part of the Numunu (Comanche) culture , where two men become brothers by having had sex with the same woman.
19th century Europeans were obsessed with the idea of blood, blood purity, tainted blood etc, so Karl May reached back into the European tradition of “blood brothers” and attributed it to Native Americans where it remains fixed in the popular imagination to this day. This is common with many misconceptions about Native American peoples, they are usually a projection of European values/fears/fantasies.
@@nataliestclair6176 Well...... thanks for making a dozen Roses look like a booger. Our friend Señora Dawn only wanted to know what it ment. A'ho
@@bigsteve6200 I was not replying to her question, which was more joke she said about why they always cut the hands. I was replying to your answer.
I thought if people read comments they should know that the whole Native American blood-brother thing was a myth created by Karl May. They never did that.
Karl May "borrowed" that based on some European cultures that did, like the Germanic tribes and Vikings of Scandinavia.
@nataliestclair6176 Thank you for your reply and your clarification. That I might not have understood you. I am very relieved. May the Creator grant you many blessings this day. A'ho.
This has to be one of the most quotable movies ever made. It is my favorite Eastwood movie- chock-full of rich, quirky characters and a script that should have won an Oscar. I think it is as close to perfect movie making as one can get.
The part of Ten Bears is played by Will Sampson, a member of the Muscogee tribe. The Muscogee were part of group of Indians that made up the Trail of Tears. He also appeared in One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, a film classic from the 60s.
1975
wow, I never noticed that was the same guy
“Cuckoo’s Nest....” A masterpiece of a movie 😊👌
@@marioarguello6989When you're my age all the years sort of blend in together 😅
@@mikealvarez2322 I reckon so
"What's a Whistle Dixie"? Dixie is the song everyone kept singing that you liked. "Look away. Look away. Look away, Dixie Land". It was used as the National Anthem for the southern states in the Civil War.
The South was nicknamed "Dixie" because it was south of the Mason/Dixon line.
And the phrase "whistling Dixie" came to mean "fanciful dreaming," or "having unrealistic expectations," as in, "He kept talking about opening a bakery, but he was just whistling Dixie." I suppose the metaphor is like ... "sentimentally singing the song of the South isn't going to win the war on its own." It's unclear to me exactly _when_ the phrase came to mean this. Google's ngram viewer says the phrase popped up during the Civil War, but then wasn't really popular again until the 1940s.
In the late 18th century, while we were still a colony, two Land Surveyors, Mason and Dixon, surveyed and defined the south border of Pennsylvania, eventually continuing westerly, along the south boundary of the territory which eventually became Ohio, Indiana and Illinois. 80 years later, this line became part of the boundary of the northern and southern states in our Civil War. Charles Dixon was referred to as "Dixie" in the song.
The dialogue with Ten Bears is fantastic. I go back to watch just that part a couple of times a year. The old shop lady character is great too, "you can pay me when you see me, Josey Wales'.
Dawn thank you for doing classics, like Cassablanca, Rear Window, and Westerns...Joesy Wales was one of the earlier movies he starred and directed. Awesome.
My late father's very favorite move. There is so many things going on it's hard to comment on all of them at one time. Josie was short for Joseph, but it became so popular it was used as a proper name. During the Civil War Missouri was a boarder state, so you never knew what troops could come around, plus there was more guerilla fighting with smaller groups of soldiers and militia, both sides were just as violent. The 'Red Legs' were with the Union and were named for the red colored slacks they wore instead of the blue official uniform of the North. Josie only picked fighting for the South because of what the northern 'Red Legs' did to his family.
I just a prayer for you're pops.
If he loved this movie I'm sure he's a good guy.
Rip Good sir and
Many , many happy holidays to you and yours
🙂🤗😃
While this movie is clearly fiction, Josie's situation is PRECISELY why most of the Confederate soldiers were fighting. Yankee troops would burn towns and crops, rape local women, and murder just about any Southern civilian that they could. Lincoln knew about that, too, but he was hellbent on not having the Union dissolve on his watch, so he turned a blind eye to it. Confederate soldiers were fighting to protect homes and families, the issues of the governments were of little concern to them.
This is my favorite Eastwood film. Thanks for doing it, Dawn.
Before and during the civil war, the US states of Missouri and Kansas were involved in what was known as a border war. They shared a border and Missouri went for the South and Kansas for the North. The "redlegs" were from Kansas and routinely invaded and ravaged citizens in Missouri and vice versa.
This was a perfect example of the victors writing the history books. Those from Kansas were heroes and those from Missouri were outlaws if they didn't pledge allegience to the United States (the North). Jesse James is one of the most famous Missouri outlaws
Dixie was a nickname for the South and a popular song.
Being in Western Missouri, I can tell you there's STILL bad blood between the states. My own county (Bates) was one that was forcibly evacuated and burnt as a result of General Order #11.
Not entirely accurate. Missouri was a border state during the war, meaning they didn't secede from the Union. They were not "for the South" and the state was at war within itself as a result since they were in the Union, but maintained slavery.
Interesting bit of casting: John Vernon (Fletcher), prior to The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976) was known for a few roles in film and on TV; most notably the voice of Tony Stark/Iron Man for the 1966 Iron Man cartoons for The Marvel Super Heroes TV series. But in a few short years, he would become better known for a role that is so different from Fletcher; and that is Dean Wormer from National Lampoon's Animal House (1978).
I always enjoyed his role in Airplane 2 as well.
...and for us weirder people, he was in Sweet Movie. Fine film.
If you notice, he is carrying either four or five pistols. The development of cartridge rounds doesn't occur until after the Civil War in the 1870s. His pistols are Navy Colts, which had to be hand-loaded, a process that required time and supplies. They carried those pistols so they could fight without running out of ammo.
This movie is the definition of a classic.
"You have to sing Dixi or the battle hymn of the republic with equal enthusiasm" A perfect encapsulation of working with the public. As a cab driver I need to use that ability all the time.
Dawn - some quick background - in the run up to the American Civil War, there was "Bloody Kansas," a series of assaults, murders, raids and counter-raids that took place along the frontier between Missouri and the proposed state of Kansas. The the bloody back-and-forth between armed groups of irregulars was centered on the question as to whether Kansas would join the US as a free, anti-slavery state or a slave state. It was a nasty prelude to the coming war. Josey's family is murdered in such a raid so he joined a group of raiders that ultimately fought as an irregular cavalry unit for the Confederacy. Now, the war is over. The South lost and Josey has no family or home to return. Like other real life men in his position, he became an outlaw, refusing to surrender and carrying on his own personal war. The story is his journey to another discovering another life and a second chance after loosing everything he cared about.
One big issue in your story is that "Joining the US" had nothing to do with slavery. Missouri was a border state. They did not secede from the Union and were always a part of the U.S. even though they still had slavery, just like Kentucky, Marlyand, and Delaware. Lincoln didn't give 2 shits about slavery as proof by the Emancipation only freeing slaves in "States in open rebellion". It's best to just stick with "Free states" when discussing the war and not the "U.S."
@@Swearengen1980 No, the border war between Kansas and Missouri was ongoing long before the the 1860 election. The whole Bloody Kansas affair was tied directly to the ongoing question as to weather Kansas would join the Republic as a slave state or a free state and its impact on the increasingly turbulent Congress. The history is pretty definitive in this case; but, hey - adults can disagree. No skin off my nose.
@@genghispecan The border war between Kansas and Missouri is irrelevant to the fact that Missouri was a slave state in the Union during the civil war. You're implying that all Union states were Free states and that simply is not true.
@@Swearengen1980 No, they weren't all free-soil states but with the advent of popular sovereignty and the Compromise of 1850, states could vote on what side they would choose. In the months leading up to the vote in Kansas, both sides were moving into Kansas to influence the outcome of that vote. The violence between the two sides gave rise to the moniker of "Bleeding Kansas." John Brown killed pro slavery residents and men like Bloody Bill Anderson and William Quantrell fought on the slavery side. FYI, the James brothers and their cousins, the Youngers, were purported to ride with Quantrell.
@@doc_adams8506 That is still completely irrelevant to Missouri being a Union slave state. Not one word of that has anything to do with what I said.
The old man is Chief Dan George,he was Chief of the Tslei-Waututh Nation, a Coast Salish band whose reserve was very close to Vancouver British Columbia. I met him once when I was a child, he was overseeing the native longboat races as Chief
Fun memory, I grew up in north Vancouver and I would often spot the Chief at "Woolco" dept. store, well before this film Chief Dan George showed up in "Disney" productions from the 60s, he was my earliest brush with fame, lol.
He became an outlaw when he refused to stop fighting the Union, as a Confederate. Dixie was one of the songs of the Confederacy.
The actor who played Ten Bears, Will Sampson, also played the Chief in One Flew over the Cuckoo's Nest
Just realized that .. and _Poltergeist II_ as well.
Definitely had a little laugh about your assumption on the name Josey being a female. It was entertaining.😊
Dixie, was the unofficial song of the Confederate States of America which was known by several titles including Dixie, Dixie's Land, & I Wish I Was in Dixie. The 1st verse was sung several times in this movie. Whistle Dixie means just that. Whistle the Dixie melody. The quote was used to imply Josey's impatience on the soldier to get on w/ it (draw & shoot or just stand there & whistle Dixie).
"Which hair? Cus I'm pretty sure there's plenty"
Tears in my eyes Dawn, thanks! 🤣🤣
That was the first time I heard the word "minging since I left Glasgow over 30 years ago. It made me smile 😊. Thanks Dawn.
One of the best of his western movies, he also did a number of other good ones like "Coogan's bluff" 1968, "Play Misty For Me" 1971 to name just two.
I was just thinking about Coogan's Bluff. Great movie!
Not to mention "Pale Rider" which I saw in high school and "The Unforgiven" which was S-tier.
let's not overlook Every Which Way but Loose! co-starring Sondra Locke
I can't watch "Play Misty For Me". The crazy broad reminds me too much of an ex. Hits a little too close to home.
Coogan’s Bluff is amazing. It was the film that gave rise to the TV Show McCloud, although Dennis Weaver was no Clint Eastwood.
Great reaction Dawn....honestly, you will absolutely love "2 Mules for Sister Sara", it will have everything you love about Clint westerns and more!
I reckon so, unless she is a bluebelly.
she skipped it again, unbelievable ! ;)
@@claudiusmalina1371 Yeah, I've stopped commenting on it, she's getting her cues somewhere else.... lol
@@coraldude yah maybe but about a month ago she answered here my recommend for two mules... and wrote "reach out" i don't know what it means ;)
@@claudiusmalina1371 It means she wants your money
Excellent movie, Excellent reaction! So glad you reacted to this one. Hearing your thoughts on doing a 3 movie rotation of Clint Eastwood, John Wayne, and a random movie gets a HUGE YES from me! I would love that!
The blonde woman who you said was too young for Josie was played by actress Sandra Locke. She was Clint's girlfriend during the 70s and appeared in a few of his movies. One that comes to mind off the top of my head was 'The Gauntlet'. He plays a cop in that one and has to try to get her safely to a courthouse to testify against a crooked police commissioner. Might want to check that one out.
This is such an iconic Western. Another great Western you should react to is "Little Big Man." It's one of Dustin Hoffman's finest roles. Chief Dan George is also in it.
Agreed 👍 great movie ✌️
@@johnboydTx and it's so underrated. Almost nobody knows about it, despite it being such a great flick.
That is one crappy movie, plenty of other westerns she can watch. She sure is selecting good movies.
@@marioarguello6989 You missed the statements on society and internal conflicts 🤔. Very Insightful 😉✌️
@johnboydTx It is a boring piece of crap movie, filmed very badly too. And that asshole Dustin Hoffman as an old west guy is not very believable. Tried to stomach it about 40 years ago, and then maybe 20 years ago, utter crap. And, not enough explosions and shiny things.
The young girl, Sondra Locke, was his girlfriend for 13 years and starred in several movies together. You might want to check out the Clint Eastwood comedy "Any Which Way But Loose" also with Locke. Ok...it's a comedy but it's still Clint snarling and kicking ass but his best friend is something else.
"Right turn, Clyde."
*Every which way but loose
The sequel was 'Any which way you can'
18:47 Dixieland was a song of the south and confederate areas. Josey Wales was asking if they were going to pull their pistols or not. Only instead of saying "not", he was saying "whistle a song".
Easy man to track he leaves dead bodies everywhere he goes --- is the most underated line.
This has always been my favorite western. Best reactor ever!
Great reaction, as always. Your comments are always fun to hear, particularly the predictions about what is going to happen.
The conversation between Josey and Ten Bears is one of my favorite interactions in film. Two tired warriors showing respect for one another and moving forward in peace.
"Red Legs" was the name given to the Union troops from Kansas who wore red gaiters on their lower legs. For awhile before the Civil War even started, there was an undeclared war between those in Kansas and Missouri, raiding each other. Civilians would regularly get caught up in the violence, and the "Red Legs" got a reputation, in MIssouri, for such brutality and were often despised. Some nasty back & forth.
As a good example of the mentality, the leading Union general (Lyon) in MIssouri, when the war actually started, was told by the state governer that Missouri would be neutral and didn't want to fight in the civil war. General Lyon told him, "I would rather see every man, woman, and child in MIssouri dead!" General Lyon had been a "Red Leg" before the war.
Lyon was not a “Red Leg” he was regular US Army and not a Kansan. Red Legs were Kansas volunteers especially associated with Senator Jim Lane. They caused so much devastation in Western Missouri that the Union General in Missouri had them banned from the State. Their attacks on civilians and towns were forcing many Missourians in the western part of the state join Guerrillas. William Quantrill
and Bloody Bill Anderson’s ranks grew from that hatred. Josef in this movie is the story of them men. Note their is still bad blood between Kansas and Missouri. As the University of Kansas wears the colors of the Union and only wears red stockings in football when playing the University of Missouri.
@@tackle47 "As the University of Kansas wears the colors of the Union and only wears red stockings in football when playing the University of Missouri." seriously? that's like saying : "look we're still proud of our war crimes!"
The "Red Legs" was a paramilitary group of about a hundred men during the Civil War wearing red gaiters that served as scouts during the punitive expedition of the Union troops in Missouri. They were accused by contemporaries of spreading atrocities and destruction.
So happy to see this getting your reaction. I've seen this movie so many times I probably know the entire dialogue by heart. I think that last tense scene is one of the best written. Awesome (and always funny) reaction!
Dixieland is the South. Elvis sings a great rendition of Dixie in his An American Trilogy song. Dixie was written by a Northerner who supported the Union army, so he regretted writing it when it became popular among Confederate soldiers.
Yes the Northerner who wrote it was famous for his black-face comedy troupe. He hated the south.
Ironically Lincoln loved it and after Lee's surrender ordered it played, happily calling it federal property
"Dying ain't much of a livin'" is my favorite line in any movie. You'll see many of these same actors in many of Clint's movies. He and Sondra Locke (the young girl in the movie) had a decade long affair.
Dawn Marie your laughing is infectious. I love 💕 the way you laugh while reaxting 2 movies
Thank you, Dawn! Been dying for someone to react to this movie FOREVER! You might try Hannie Caulder from 1972 for a female bounty hunter/gunslinger.
Same here I've been waiting for any reactor to see this film I've seen late nights with sammy reaction to it
Hannie Caulder staring Raquel Welch I think is actually a revenge flick but trained by a bounty hunter. Haven't seen it in decades!! Nice! ☮️
The other western with a strong female character is the quick and the dead.
Oh my God... My favorite movie of all time. It's happening. Where's my popcorn?
This was my father's favorite movie.
It shares a lot in common with "The Searchers".
“All I have is a piece of hard rock candy. But it’s not for eatin.. it’s just for.. lookin through”. Love that line.
Oh, the Outlaw.. One of the greatest films of legend Clint Eastwood.
WOW The Outlaw Josey Wales starring by Clint Eastwood thank you thank you so much Dawn Marie🙂🙂👍👍👍
I see Bill McKinney (the "Redleg") and it makes me think that Deliverance (1972) would make an AWESOME reaction video! He has a KEY role in that film, LOL. I think you would be fascinated and awed it.
Fun fact: cavalrymen would train their horses to lay down like that when they dismounted. They would use the horses as a steady platform to shoot from and as a shield from enemy fire when shooting from the prone position. The ferryman was singing specific songs depending on who he had on his ferry across the river. The song he was singing when Josey Wales was on was "Dixie" and it was a Confederate song.
Wonderful selection, Dawn. Loved this watchalong with you as usual. I hope this means we're that much closer to Clint's Pale Rider.
Dawn Marie, you were surprised that Josie was the name for a man. You might be surprised too that the actor John Wayne was born with the name Marion Robert Morrison. Thanks for your reaction to this movie. I appreciate the humour that the actor Chief Dan George delivered in his character. Chief Dan George was also in the Western, 'Little Big Man' (1970).
Little Big Man … another classic above the rest
Chief Dan George, the old native guy was an awesome actor and artist. I recommend to check out Little Big Man - an epic western comedy/drama where you can get more George. Illegally underrated movie starring Dustin Hoffman. edit.looks like many had the same idea :D
The spitting, especially just before gunfights, is Josey's way of showing that he has no fear. He can spit because his mouth is not dry.
Incorrect. He was chewing tobacco. The line "How's it work on stains?" showed a brown stain on the white coat, a tobacco stain.
@@chasatch And he didn't spit on the floor,hit into a spitoon ( a small bucket for spitting in)
You need to watch The Quick and the Dead staring Sharon Stone if you want to watch a Western with a lead female gunslinger. It's got Gene Hackman and Russell Crowe too.
It is pure schlock but 100% a good time. As a kid I thought it was so cool to see all the duels and funky styles.
@zackgallardo indeed, it's like a comicbook, but I think she'd like it.
Best intro in a long time. Funny, charming, quirky - totally Dawn Marie! And the jammies rock!🏴
My dear friend Will Sonny Sampson was in over 24 big screen and made for TV movies in his short acting career before he passed in 1987. He also narrated the P.B.S. series "Images Of Indians"...and was in the 70's series Vegas as Harlin Two Leaf with Robert Urich. Many of his award winning paintings hang in famous museums like the Smithsonian. R.I.P. dear Sonny.
Dixieland was the song they used as the anthem for the Confederacy (South) during the American Civil War.
Quite possibly Clint’s best movie. Right up there with Dirty Harry and Man with no name trilogy. Also the rare movie that shows how sadistic the North was to the South.
That pendulum swung both ways before, during and even after the civil war. One of the biggest atrocities were the gainseville hangings, centralia and the scorched earth used by the retreating southeners
I never said that the south was mr clean. Just that nobody ever really talks about the atrocities done by the North. They’re usually portrayed as saints.
Dirty Harry is the best eastwood film that I have watched last year
@@harvey4512I say the good the bad and the ugly.
Chief Dan George had all the best lines.
My father’s favorite movie. I lost count of how many times me and a friend would come home from the bar and he’d be puttering around the kitchen with this playing in the background. And he’d make us eggs and hash browns. For such a grim movie, I have nothing but good memories associated with it.
This movie moved into my favorite position, narrowly edging out Jerimiah Johnson a couple of decades ago. Wales is a fantastic blend of real historical characters mythological heroes western heroes, and like a good song, the story has had different meaning for me over the decades. Really liked your review. Take care.
A fun game to play is counting how many people Clint kills in this movie; it's a lot, so if you want to turn it into a drinking game, maybe use water.
Lee Marvin received an academy award for his roles in “Cat Ballou” a movie you should definitely check out
And what see the trader Jane Fonda of Veit Nam, trying to be a actress? She should have never been let back into the US.
@@TheNighthhawk traitor, you illiterate rube. And maybe look up up the definition of traitor.
One of my top 5 movies of all time, "And when we had thought about it long enough, we declared war on the Union".
Making hair braids was pretty common then. A lady I know purchased a beautify picture frame with a huge intricate braid of hair in it. She only wanted the frame. She went to take the braid out and reframe it and saw a letter in the matting from a drummer boy to his mother. He was only 12 and died from illness coming back from the end of the Civil War.
You need to watch "Unforgiven", another Clint classic!
Now you got to watch "Pale Rider". Some believe it's a sequel to Josey Wales.
Yes, I do believe Josie came back from the dead great, thank you
18:47 Whistle Dixie.
He means whistle the Dixieland song you was asking about earlier in the movie. Which was the official song of the South during the Civil War days.
In other words, he's asking those northern Union soldiers if they're going to draw their guns, or cower down and start singing the song of the south, their enemies.
Sondra Locke was Clint Eastwood's girlfriend in real life for over 13 years. They co-starred in half a dozen movies including The Gauntlet, Every Which Way But Loose, Any Which Way You Can, Bronco Billy and Sudden Impact.
Thank you for this movie… one of my favorite westerns and Eastwood films. Two suggestions: Once Upon a Time in the West with Henry Fonda and Charles Bronson, and Cat Ballou with Lee Marvin
Cat Ballou was a comedy western from the 60s, and Jane Fonda was the title character. It also has Lee Marvin, & I think you like him. He won an academy award for it. The movie I mean. You liking him is it's own reward.
I've only seen bits of it, but it's a woman outlaw movie
Thanks for your videos
GGrrrrrr .. Traitor Hanoi Jane
Well, I've seen all of it several times, and I agree. Lee Marvin played two different twisted versions of the kind of roles he'd been playing for years and he stole the show.
I definately second "Cat Balou" as it's amazing and possibly quite underrated Western, and yes Cat, is a Female Outlaw..
For more westerns of more "modern" era, there is " Young Guns I & II ", though they may give chance to tears.
Great revenge story, and Dawn would have a blast with it for sure. Might be tough to edit with all the unique narrative.
What I love about Josey Wales is he has no politics, no noble purpose, no ideology, just an open hole in him filled with hate. When he is done hating, he stops fighting.
Cheif Dan George (Lone Watie) was a real Renaissance Man. Author, actor, poet, musician, activist, and leader of the Tsleil-Waututh Nation. Real gentleman with a wiry wit. My Dad long ago had the honor of meeting him at a "pow wow" of sorts. He said it was like meeting a grandfather he never new he had, and he cherished that memory.
Excellent film. Eastwood's best in my opinion. Plus the wonderful Chief Dan George, such an asset to this movie.
One of the best movies ever, period. The only negatives are the 1970's Sondra Locke crap.
I've always liked this movie, but it drags on a bit long in places.
Kelly's Heroes would be a good movie to watch, but I'd also consider Where Eagles Dare as well.
The little boy helping him in the field in the beginning is clint eastwoods real life son.
Thank you Dawn for doing this flick...I can't believe more reactors haven't done this.
one of my top two fav westerns, love it. Great reaction.
The first part of the movie covers the Civil War in Missouri, a civil war within a civil war in my home state. An interesting and more accurate movie on the topic is "Ride with the Devil" starring a long haired Tobey Maguire just before his Spiderman role. Also Jewell and both do a surprisingly good job.
I agree. Most people don't know that these movies are based on books which can be considered historical fiction.
One of biggest westerns of the late 50s and personal fav. Of mine , the Big country.......big stars ,great director. And incredible cast......
Sondra Locke, who played Laura Lee, was 32 years old for "the Outlaw Josie Wales". She is just a young looking person. She was with Clint Eastwood from 1975 to 1989. She died in 2018.
I am excited that you chose this film. It's an all time favorite of mine.
Definitely one of Clint’s greatest westerns, this and pale rider, in fact probably one of the best westerns of all time. The characters are brilliant especially the hilarious old Native American. I love your channel you seem to be watching all my favourite movies every week. Just waiting on Coming to America and I’ll be happy 👍. X
"Dixie" was a song sung by those in the South during the Civil War. The North sang "Battle Hymn of the Republic". Chief Dan George was chief of a Canadian tribe. He passed away in 1981 at the age of 82. Loved him in this movie. Whistle the tune "Dixie". Granny gets on my last nerve.
The song "Dixieland" was one of the anthems for the confederate states of the south in the Civil War. People often whistled it and the term whistle Dixie is a term for daydreaming or fantasize because the southern states could only hope to win the war. It's also a catchy tune and people often whistle it while doing busy work while daydreaming
I love this movie! Thanks so much for sharing this with us. A close second favorite Clint western is Pale Rider. Please consider it. I guarantee it will be best movie ever! Then for something completely different 😊 check out the Dirty Harry series.
It's a remake of *_Shane._*
How can it be the "best movie ever" if you just said it was a close second?
Thank you, thank you, thank you for reviewing this movie. One of my all time favorites!!
"Dixie" was the unofficial anthem of the Confederacy. It's also the tune the General Lee (The car from "Dukes of Hazzard) plays on its horn. The fellow on the raft was singing it at first then switched to "The Battle Hymn of the Republic" (The Union's anthem) when the Union soldiers got on the raft.
In the bar scene when you mentioned kicking him out for spitting on the floor. When he spit, he actually spit into a spittoon. It was a brass, vase-like container that sat on the floor. When he spit, you could hear the metal sound when it hits.
Aside from this female outlaw, there is another movie called Cat Balou (staring Jane Fonda). You would love it, and it also stars Lee Marvin playing two different gun slingers!
Eastwood's best! Some of the best lines in movie history!
Love your style, attitude, reactions and your giggle!
"Put yer butts together" she says, that, little lady, is a different kind of film..
