Unforgiven (1992)

Clint revived his tough as nails cowboy persona for one last time, and simultaneously managed to breathe life back into the Western genre which had been on its last legs for many years. With help from three of the finest old guy actors working at the time, he delivered a film about what it means to be a man with a gun and what it takes to kill. Another Eastwood classic.

Eastwood's made some good films since but nothing quite as feckin' good as this.
