Yesterday northsider blogged here about Spaghetti Westerns and mentioned Clint Eastwood.
As a kid, I liked to watch his films as I always thought he looked like my dad..my hero.
Well, close enough...

I can see the likeness JayCee ......I bet they all envied your mum ! I also think that you look like him { even though I've only seen one photograph of you ! } XXXX
ReplyDeleteThank you Jackie. Everyone says that I look like my mum! xxx
DeleteThere's certainly a likeness, your Dad was a looker as we would have said in 'the old days' lol
ReplyDeleteI remarked to Tom that it must be hard for actors to come to terms with getting old. It's hard enough when we look back at photos but to see yourself on screen and then look in the mirror when you are an actor must be devastating, especially in Clint's case, lol

Thanks Briony. I always thought he was a handsome chap, but then I was probably biased.
DeleteYes, it must be a burden to be exceptionally good looking in your youth only to watch your looks fade with age. Luckily I never had that problem! x
Yes - I do see a likeness Jaycee - lovely to feel like that about your Dad as a child too
ReplyDeleteHe was very much loved.
DeleteCrikey. I see what you mean JayCee. Thanks for sharing your photo of your dad with us.
ReplyDeleteThank you Dave for prompting this particular memory.
DeleteDefinitely can see the likeness.

DeleteOoh as Briony said....nice looker. A real beach bum!
ReplyDeleteHe did turn into a typical wrinkly later on Cathy!
DeleteI used to see his westerns at the cinema and come out thinking I was Clint Eastwood. Even wondered whether I should buy some cheroots.
ReplyDeleteDid you squint and close one eye too?
DeleteThough the picture is a little blurry, I can see that your dad was indeed a handsome chap. No wonder he spawned such a pretty daughter. Shame about the other one.
ReplyDeleteSorry about the photo, it is very old and has faded quite a lot. Like some of us!
DeletePeople said my dad looked like Rolf Harris. He did. I wrote a haiku about it:
ReplyDeletePeople used to say
My dad looked like Rolf Harris.
They don't anymore.
Very deep.
DeleteWhich one is which?
ReplyDeleteThe good looking one is my dad.
DeleteYes, he was a handsome guy your Dad!
ReplyDeleteThanks Ellen x
Deletedefinitely a resemblance!
ReplyDeleteFrom a distance 😉
DeleteA very good friend of mine had a very handsome father, and all her female friends (and maybe male friends too) used to fancy him like crazy. It used to really annoy her.
ReplyDeleteI was never aware of anything like that at the time, although I think my mum's sister had her eye on him!
DeleteOn my first date ever I was taken to a spaghetti western. I always liked Clint Eastwood from days of Rawhide. Your dad looks fantastic.x
ReplyDeleteI was a little biased!
DeleteI loved Clint Eastwood and remember those spaghetti westerns so well....
