Dirty Harry Meets the Man With No Name in a Tournament of Eastwood's Toughest Roles

eastwood-tourn-560.jpg

How did Clint Eastwood become the ultimate tough guy? By playing so many lonely gunfighters, curmudgeonly boxing trainers and renegade cops in so many great movies. That renegade cop? "Dirty" Harry Callahan, the detective who dares bad guys to "Go ahead -- make my day," just so he can show them a thing or two about justice. All this week on AMC, pay homage to Harry Callahan with AMC's Can't Get Enough Dirty Harry Week. A different Dirty Harry movie airs each night, starting with the original, Dirty Harry, on Mon., Sep. 6, at 8PM | 7C. It's a tough act to follow, so we're pitting Harry against seven other Eastwood characters to give him a run for his .44 Magnum. Can the heroes of Unforgiven, The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, Escape From Alcatraz or Million Dollar Baby do any damage? Tune in to Can't Get Enough Dirty Harry Week, then cast your vote in the all-Eastwood smackdown to settle the score.
