I thought I had seen all the films starring
Clint Eastwood, but somehow
Joe Kidd has slipped under the radar. It has an amazing line-up: starring Clint Eastwood,
John Saxon and
Robert Duvall, music by
Lalo Schifrin (
Mission: Impossible, Bullitt, Cool Hand Luke), it's written by
Elmore Leonard and directed by
John Sturges (T
he Magnificent Seven, Gunfight at the O.K. Corral). All is well, a lovely little gem from 1972. Joe Kidd is a town drunk, trouble maker and hunter of people and animals. He's playing it cool when landowners are busy shooting each other.
