Re: What Cigar(s) Is Clint Eastwood Smoking in Wes
Well first, thanks to this thread for helping decide my username.
Now down to business. According to Wikipedia, Clint Eastwood article: "Eastwood was instrumental in creating the Man With No Name character's distinctive visual style that would appear in throughout the Dollars trilogy. He bought the black jeans from a shop on Hollywood Boulevard, the hat from a Santa Monica wardrobe firm, and the trademark black cigars came from a Beverly Hills shop, though Eastwood himself is a non-smoker." And from the "Man with no name" Wikipedia page: "He habitually smokes a cigarillo while working... The Man's trademark cigars were also from California; their harshness put Eastwood in what he called a "scratchy mood," which aided in his characterization." Now they don't list the brand, which is too bad, and Wikipedia's not always perfect, but based on the size they could have been cigarillos. Either way, great thread. |
