The Mule (Trailer) - STARRING Clint Eastwood & Bradley Cooper

[dvdjamm]

Here is the first trailer for The Mule, which marks Clint Eastwood’s first time in front of and behind the camera since Gran Torino in 2008. He plays Earl Stone — broke, alone and facing foreclosure of his business. Then he is offered a job that simply requires him to drive. Easy enough, it would seem. But Earl doesn’t know that he just signed on as a drug courier for a Mexican cartel. He does so well that his cargo increases exponentially, and Earl is assigned a handler. But he isn’t the only one keeping tabs on this mysterious new mule: He also has also hit the radar of a hard-charging DEA agent (Bradley Cooper). But as his money problems fade, Earl’s past mistakes start to weigh heavily on him, and it’s uncertain if he’ll have time to right those wrongs before law enforcement, or the cartel’s enforcers, catch up to him.

Cooper, Laurence Fishburne, Michael Peña, Dianne Wiest and Andy Garcia co-star in the Warner Bros film from Imperative Entertainment and BRON Creative, along with Alison Eastwood, Taissa Farmiga, Ignacio Serricchio, Loren Dean and Eugene Cordero. Nick Schenk, who also penned Gran Tarino, scripted The Mule, which opens December 14.

I know the original story background, but I am so disgusted and tired of Clint Eastwood and his all American propaganda, demonized Mexican drug cartel members, it's just sick. Before I watched the trailer I knew......the hero is the aging white American male, who didn't know he was trafficking 250 kilo loads from Arizona to the Detroit area, and his handlers weren't Sinaloa bagmen and errand boys. This paints it as a mistake, and a good man, the forgotten man, getting in over his head, only for the "big Government" and Mexicans to enter as the true villains. This is just offensively stupid. Another white male hero story.

Check the actual story, and his guilty plea.

Ninety-Year Old Drug Courier Sentenced To 3 Years In Prison

Edit: Is Andy Garcia playing a cartel enforcer? Jesus christ.

According to court records, Sharp had been a drug courier for the better part of a decade but it wasn’t until the fall of 2011 when he was stopped by law enforcement on Interstate 94 outside of Ann Arbor, MI, and found to be in possession of 104 kilograms of cocaine, that his extensive involvement with the drug trafficking organization was completely discovered. In fact, that particular seizure was only one such trip that Sharp and other couriers had undertaken to bring hundreds of kilograms of cocaine and marijuana to southeast Michigan from Arizona.

Looks fire

The trailer does look good, but I hate Clint Eastwood's politics and I hope he doesn't try to shoehorn them into this movie.

 

[Bob Loblaw]

Looks good almost as good as old man and the gun with Robert Redford

I'm a real fan of movies starring Clint Eastwood. Some of them are some of my favorite movies.

Gran Torino
Million Dollar Baby
True Crime (love this movie, the payoff was friggin' dope!)
The Bridges of Madison County ( don't judge me, thoroughly enjoyable love story)
A Perfect World (criminally slept on)
In the Line of Fire (personal classic)
Unforgiven (all-time classic, I watch this whenever it's on)
Heartbreak Ridge (not a classic or anything but another movie I love and have seen all or parts of at least 15-20 times.)
The Good the Bad and the Ugly

This looks like something I will definitely see eventually.

Has he done that before? Not that I seen every one but I don't really recall him overtly doing that.

if you judged everything on the personal life of an actor (or musician) you'd probably never watch another movie again.

Hollywood is full of weirdos and scumbags. Someone's politics won't stop me from watching something that looks good.

Yeah, with both music and movies I take the attitude of, "What of this was made 100s of years ago, and I don't know anything about the people involved." It helps you enjoy it with a more open mind.
