Every Which Way but Loose
Clint Eastwood will turn you Every Which Way But Loose
Directed by James Fargo
Produced by Malpaso Productions, Warner Bros. Pictures
A lighthearted, oddball buddy comedy-adventure about a truck-driving brawler and his orangutan companion chasing love across the Southwest, mixing screwball romance with bar-room action.
Philo Beddoe is your regular, easygoing, truck-driving guy. He's also the best bar-room brawler west of the Rockies. And he lives with a 165-pound orangutan named Clyde. Like other guys, Philo finally falls in love - with a flighty singer who leads him on a screwball chase across the American Southwest. Nothing's in the way except a motorcycle gang, some cops, and legendary brawler Tank Murdock.
