Go ahead and make my Patrol! One of the biggest icons in movies over the past 50 years is “Dirty Harry” himself, Clint Eastwood. From early roles in TV like Rowdy Yates on “Rawhide” and playing the hero in roles like “The Outlaw Josey Wales” and “High Plains Drifter” to acting and directing in movies such as “Space Cowboys” and “Gran Turino,” Eastwood’s amassed such a range of work over the last 50 years.

The Patrol Trail Boss, the Toddster, has brought his posse together and they’ve given their favorite Eastwood movies and memories right here. Do you feel lucky? Take a look.
