When I was growing up, any time my siblings and I were being exceptionally terrible, my mother used to scream, "Goblin King, Goblin King, wherever he may be! Come and take this child of mine far away from me!"
She confessed to me later in life that she was too superstitious to say "the real words".
Coogan's Bluff is a 1968 American Universal film directed by Don Siegel and starring Clint Eastwood, Lee J. Cobb, Don Stroud, and Susan Clark. Eastwood plays the part of a young veteran deputy sheriff from a rural county in Arizona who travels to New York City to extradite an apprehended fugitive named Jimmy Ringerman, played by Stroud, who is wanted for murder.
Now you may be asking yourself what does this flick have to do with me..well mofo's i'll tell ya.
The 70's Tv Series Mcloud was loosely based on the plot of this film (Coogan is a deputy sheriff from Arizona. McCloud is a U.S. Marshal from New Mexico.)
The Violence was toned down for Tv, I was more the fish out of water type country justice meets the mean streets sorta thing, and the lead was a fella by the name of Dennis Weaver.
My Surname is Weaver, and so for a little while my school nicname was McCloud which was often shortened to mack or mick..which was kinda funny because adults would gasp thinken they were using a slur..lol or Earl which i hated and has nothing to do with movies but i digress.
I absolutely loathe my year when it comes to movies. I only chose Scarface because I recently watched it and liked it (for the first time.) There's a few good films in 1983, but it's not my kind of amazing year. Terms of Endearment -- which I had Ash watch recently -- came out that year. I almost went with an avatar of that movie, but it's been awhile since I've seen it.
I just found out I was born four days before the release date of A Christmas Story -- and that's a movie I've always not cared about! I guess two very annoying things had to come out that week -- that movie and me.
1997; I don't think I've even seen any movies that came out that year. But, since I'm a James Cameron fan, I'll go with the most popular movie of that year:
Oh, and i'm so glad i'm not the only person who loves Coogan's Bluff
I meant nothing about his age. I wouldn't care if he was 5, he's got better taste than lots of people I know. I simply wanted to alert him to the fact that he hotlinked from the wrong site.
