DC Murderverse posted:i was gonna say that I thought Death Wish pre-dated Dirty Harry but it turns out that Dirty Harry came out in '71 and Death Wish in '74 so i was wrong. Although i did learn that apparently Charles Bronson is partially responsible for Clint Eastwood's fame, because Sergio Leone wanted to cast Bronson for A Fistful of Dollars after working with him for Once Upon a Time in the West but Bronson turned the role down, thus letting Clint Eastwood make a name for himself. Clint was already a big star thanks to Rawhide when he made A Fistful Of Dollars (1964); he took the role (and wangled a surprisingly large amount of money for it) because he wanted a break from being typecast as a do-gooder white hat. Sergio Leone later wanted to cast him as one of the random bad guys who get killed by Bronson in Once Upon A Time In The West (1968) as a joke, but Clint had had enough of slogging around Almeria in a poncho by then.
