    I was talking old TV/movies with my dad today and he had recently rewatched Ted Post's 1968 Eastwood film "Hang 'Em High" and mentioned the six gallows setups they had with one lever. Needless to say, I pointed out how that could be quite useful right now. I mean: Wee-lon, Bezos, SuckerTurd... 🤣😎👍🪓

    Saw a very young Inger Stevens last night on Zane Grey Theater. She was on "Hang 'em High", with Clint Eastwood. She has an interesting history. One cool thing being *gasp* in 1961 she was married to a black man. This was just unheard of when I was young. She kept it secret until her death.

    "Hang 'Em High" was directed by Ted Post, who would go on to direct Eastwood in "Magnum Force," which I think is, by far, the best Dirty Harry movie. #HangEmHigh #TCMParty

    If people want to see a mostly historically accurate depiction of a public hanging the movie Hang 'Em High is on Tubi right now. It's a Clint Eastwood movie about how hanging is a fucked up form of justice.

    Nah, it tracks pretty closely to the Eastwood movie Hang 'em High, if memory serves. Difference being the cop in the movie felt pretty bad when they hanged the ones that helped him out.

    Hang 'Em High (1968) was Eastwood's first Hollywood film after returning from transforming the landscape of the Western with Leone in Italy. Essentially a meditation on two conflicting impulses in punishment - justice, and what Bacon called revenge's "wild justice". www.imdb.com/title/tt0061...

    When "Cooper" (Clint Eastwood) gets caught up in a case of mistaken identity, he is all but lynched by a group of citizens convinced he has committed murder. Luckily for him, he is snatched from the jaws of death by deputy "Bliss" (Ben Johnson) who takes him in for a more legitimate hanging. Fortune continues to shine on "Cooper" though, when local judge "Fenton" (Pat Hingle) finds his story checks out and offers him a job with a badge of his own. This isn't to take the law into his own hands -…

    'Hang ’em High' is entertaining stuff. I personally think the first half is much stronger than the second half, which loses its way a tad and ends up concluding in a perfectly good but not as great way as what I had wanted - based on the impressive opening hour or so. Clint Eastwood, though, is excellent from start-to-finish. I undoubtedly enjoyed his performance, which is great to see follow on from the major highs of the Dollars trilogy. Pat Hingle is also a positive performer, he and…
