Dirty Harry IV – Dirty Harry kommt zurück: Directed by Clint Eastwood. With Clint Eastwood, Sondra Locke, Pat Hingle, Bradford Dillman. A rape victim is exacting revenge on her aggressors in a small town outside San Francisco. “Dirty” Harry Callahan, on suspension for angering his superiors (again), is assigned to the case.

“This is a decent entry in the Dirty Harry series, this time not just starring Clint Eastwood, but also directed by him. San Francisco Homicide Detective u0026quot;Dirtyu0026quot; Harry Callahan gets in trouble with his superiors (as usual) and is sent on forced vacation to the small seaside community of San Paulo. In between dodging various attempted Mob hits on his life, Harry stumbles into a series of killings being committed by a mysterious artist (Sondra Locke).u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThis is the film that generated the ubiquitous 80u0026#39;s catchphrase ,u0026quot;Go ahead. Make my dayu0026quot; which Harry utters while foiling a robbery he just happens to walk into. This is why I love Dirty Harry – NOBODY is that tough and lives to tell about it! President Ronald Reaganu0026#39;s use of it during a press conference was one of the most replayed moments of his presidency. Like most, if not all, of the Dirty Harry sequels, this started out as an unrelated screenplay that was then rewritten to become part of the series. This time around itu0026#39;s more obvious than in the other films. Eastwood is fine in his role, but by this time he could play this in his sleep.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eLocke makes for a convincing killer, too, and this is one of the better roles she had in then-boyfriend Clintu0026#39;s films. Plus, this is a killer whose mission I can get behind! In some ways she is like Harry, if the establishment wonu0026#39;t take out the trash, she will! I will tell you no more about her motives. Also with Pat Hingle as the small town police chief, Bradford Dillman, Albert Popwell (whou0026#39;s in the first 4 Dirty Harry films, each time as a different character), Paul Drake as a particularly nasty pencil-mustached slime ball, Mara Corday, Carmen Argenziano, Michael V. Gazzo as a mob boss, and a young Camryn Manheim looking scared in an elevator.”
