Dirty Harry (1971)

This episode is on Dirty Harry (1971). A cop and killer thriller, which saw Clint Eastwood’s obsessively determined title character go up against Andy Robinson’s psychotic Scorpio – even while a bureaucratic system does its best to hold him back.

The episode will include segments on the making of the film: story, casting, production to release and reception. Further making of stories will be included along with narratives of specific scenes and sequences. All of that and more on this episode of The Cinephiles.
