Krystal, I forgot about Clint Eastwood, I like him too, of course when I was younger hubby had to see all the Hanf Em High and other Eastwood movies. We'd go to the drive in, and I was usually expecting so we'd stop by the Catfish King and get a dozen of hushpuppies and pint of milk overtime no popcorn but liked those cornmeal hushpuppies.
I like the Eastwood movies too. I liked him as Dirty Harry also. I loved the Drive-In. Kids today don't know what they are missing!
We went to the Drive-in about 4 years ago, it felt good to be there again. We saw a Mark Warburg movie about real life adoption of 3 kids. No western movie but it was fun.

Favorite poster. Favorite western actor...You certainly make things difficult. Can't choose an actual favorite but I am loving these walks down memory lane!!!
I also loved the crew on the Laredo tv series. Interesting that they dressed Bill Smith in those skin tight clothes.
