Clint Eastwood on the passing of Geoffrey Lewis

Geoffrey Lewis, the likeable character actor best known for his work in Clint Eastwood films, died of natural causes on Tuesday at the age of 79. Beginning with his role in 1973's High Plains Drifter and culminating in 1997's Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, Lewis and Eastwood collaborated on seven films. Their brotherly rapport is perhaps best exemplified by the pair of bare-knuckle brawler movies they made—Every Which Way But Loose and Any Which Way You Can—in which the two men played best friends battling bikers, cops, and mobsters. There was never any doubt who the star was, but Lewis always made the most of what could've been a two-dimensional sidekick.
