At a time when museums, galleries, and collectors’ homes are full of massive color prints by Andreas Gursky, Cindy Sherman, and Thomas Ruff, the idea that color photographs were once not just unfashionable but unsalable seems impossibly quaint. “When Color Was New,” a smart, compact show at the Julie Saul . . .

Miami Herald (Free subscription) | 07/16/2008
For good or for ill, Clint Eastwood's five Dirty Harry films, which have been released in a new seven-disc DVD boxed set by Warner Home Video ($74.98), have done more to define today's cop movie than virtually any other film.

Dirty Harry (1971)
Good News Film Reviews (Free subscription) | 07/14/2008
Should I see it? Yes. Clint Eastwood explodes in the role he was born to play, Harry Callahan. His performance in the movie is worthy of the iconic status it has received. Although this introduction to Callahan is very violent and promotes vigilantism, I recommend this on a couple of grounds. First it is a hallmark of American popular cinema and is important. From product placement to reformulating...

Should Clint Eastwood Play Dirty Harry One More Time? Chime In Here
MTV Movies Blog (Free subscription) | 06/23/2008
The headline above may seem a preposterous question. After all, Eastwood is 78-years-old, and hasn’t gone by the name Harry Callahan since Jim Carrey went by James (check out the credits for the last “Dirty Harry” flick, “The Dead Pool”).
