NP Very misc on one film: Films Selected to the National Film Registry, Library of Congress - 2010

[Mark Kohut]

Tangentially related to the time in America that Inherent Vice sees with some 
insight:

Dirty Harry, released 1971, conceived and filmed a bit earlier therefore, was 
Executive Produced
by Clint Eastwood, who, an anthology essay remarked, shaped this movie against 
studio wishes
because he sensed that America would now respond to such a 
..........cop/detective?...........
impatient with Miranda rights--as many Americans were--- and impatient with the 
protocols of the system---
as Eastwood was with the Hollywood system.........

More of what we might call that semi-fascist turn in America........or The 
Bigfoot turn....................
