You think these movies were a bit racist?


When Clint had to shoot a bunch of guys at once, they were usually all black guys. Like in the "Do I feel lucky punk" and "Go ahead, make my day" scenes for example.

OP: THAT is what made this movie great! It's unapologetically un-pc and normal people like that.

Punks are punks.

Yes

no it is not racist, it is just the truths.

in america, most murder and rape (half) are commit by black man.

becuause of slaverys and segregate, you american feel guilt so dont speak about so much crime coming from one group of peoples.

reply

Does having black antagonists or even all black ones like that REALLY make a movie racist, in fact?

reply

A very high percentage of violent crime is committed by black men. It was the same in 1971. The movie is just realistic.
