Coogan's Bluff (1968) is a crime thriller directed by Don Siegel, starring Clint Eastwood as an Arizona deputy sheriff sent to New York City to extradite a prisoner, who then escapes, forcing Coogan to use his unorthodox methods to recapture him, clashing with the local police. The film is notable as the first of five collaborations between Siegel and Eastwood and is seen as a precursor to the "Dirty Harry" persona, establishing Eastwood as an action star.

Plot: Arizona Deputy Sheriff Walt Coogan (Eastwood) travels to NYC to pick up a murderer (Don Stroud). When the prisoner escapes due to Coogan's impatience with police procedure, Coogan goes rogue to track him down, leading to a clash with the NYPD and the city's counterculture.

Director: Don Siegel.

Stars: Clint Eastwood, Lee J. Cobb, Susan Clark, Don Stroud, and Tisha Sterling.

Significance: It's the first of five films between Siegel and Eastwood (including Dirty Harry) and helped define Eastwood's tough, anti-hero persona.

Themes: The film explores the clash between "frontier" justice and modern city policing, with Coogan's methods clashing with the more by-the-book New York cops.

Legacy: It inspired the TV series McCloud, and its style is considered a major influence on action cinema.
