The Eiger Sanction
Dir: Clint Eastwood
1975
*
Racist, homophobic, sexist and boring. Basically an excuse for Clint Eastwood to express his interest in climbing at the time. Clint is the sort of person to state "I'm not racist, I've hired loads of black people". The homophobia is cringe-worthy beyond belief, even the Gay character's Dog is called Faggot! Clint Eastwood is no James Bond either, and as for being a convincing art connoisseur? Ha, don't make me laugh. If all that weren't enough, there is no Sanction and the Eiger bit is completely pointless. Avoid, don't waste your time, even if you are a big Eastwood fan.
