Warning to Michael Moore from Clint Eastwood

Wish I could have been a fly on the wall at this awards dinner. Way to go, Mr. Eastwood. Make our day!

 

Eastwood stunned a New York filmmaking audience with his comments, the New York Daily News' Lloyd Grove reported today in his must-read column.

"Michael Moore and I actually have a lot in common - we both appreciate living in a country where there's free expression," Eastwood was quoted as telling the National Board of Review awards dinner in New York Tuesday night.

With a cold glare Eastwood took notice of Moore sitting in the audience and said bluntly and without a smile: "But, Michael, if you ever show up at my front door with a camera - I'll kill you."

The Daily News reports the audience erupted in laughter, and Eastwood grinned. "I mean it," Eastwood said again.

One of the few Republicans in Hollywood, Eastwood had once served as Mayor of Carmel, Calif.

Eastwood made his comments while accepting the Special Filmmaking Achievement prize for "Million Dollar Baby."

Moore was said to be in the rear of the audience when Eastwood made his biting remarks.

Moore also won the group's "Freedom of Expression" award for his Bush-bashing "Fahrenheit 9/11."

Apparently, Moore has not taken kindly to death threats in the past.

The News notes that last year "Moore was outraged when CNN anchor Bill Hemmer suggested during an interview that some folks might want to see him dead."

"Can you think of any other interview in the history of television where a politician or a movie director was asked about people wanting to see him dead?" Moore was quoted as saying.

Moore may have lightened up a bit. His agent told the News: "Michael laughed along with everyone else, and took Mr. Eastwood's comments in the lighthearted spirit in which they were given."

I'm surprised Charlton Heston didn't take care of that in Bowling for Columbine. That would have sucked because it was a good movie.

Not a problem. I wonder if this line "
"I mean it,"

will ever gain the popularity that "Make my day!" did? This is going to be an all time favorite of mine.

I hope Clint is not serious!  After all, Mikey is the best spokesman for conservatives there is!

But I do understand his animosity towards the pompous liar!

He should have said "make my day, Punk"!  That would have been great!

True, and I hope he wouldn't seriously do it either, but I do enjoy the threat. Too much fun!

That would have been wonderful.

Yes, this is true, Gideon, but then we wouldn't be such bad people if they acknowledged that. The fear is what they use to motivate other people.

Me, too. I don't own a gun, but I am sure I could find something useful around the house with which to whack him with.

latour, I cannot believe someone actually has the guts to admit to your liking of the movie publicly, but to each his own. I am more inclined to agree with drmiler's assessment.

I wonder if Moore would actually go over to Eastwood's house.


Sure!! It's Hollywood remember. All make-believe. They're probably best of friends. Them and the 'wives' get together at least once a week for dinner and cards.

Susan Sarandon, Tim Robbins, Babs Streisand?  Sure.  MikeyMoore? No, Hollywood holds him in contempt.  Heis an outsider. And a buffoon!

Riiiiiight. Because homocide is a civilized, proportional reaction to someone showing up at your door with a camera You right wingers applaud this cowboy talk, but get all bitchy when we call you on it. Can't have it both ways. Either you think homocide is OK (ie "Way To Go, Mr. Eastwood!" ), or you don't. I know which side I'm on. I'm not surprised this article got greenlighted for the front page by Brad "I'll shoot anyone who looks like they might hurt me" Hospital Ward-ell
