I don't think Eastwood is concerned about that at this point.
>>> I knew he was a racist ever since he pointed the hogleg revolver in that black dude’s face and asked him if he felt lucky.
He made up for it though. Afterward, Albert Popwell in “Magnum Force” got to be a mean homicidal pimp, then a black militant in “The Enforcer” and a friend of Harry’s in “Sudden Impact”.
> Clint Eastwood was actually the sixth choice for the role of Harry Callahan. The part was intended for Frank Sinatra, who bowed out due to a hand injury. The role was also offered to John Wayne, Steve McQueen, Jack Nicholson and Paul Newman.
