It isn't an Eastwood film but one of the actors featured in my posted image would go on to co-star with him in a film released in the following decade.

HONDO · February 11

I am surprised that with my last clues someone hasn't figured out the answer to C565.

The answer is The Bravados from 1958, Seen below from left to right are Gregory Peck, Stephen Boyd, Albert Salmi,
Lee Van Cleef and Henry Silva.

My final clues referred to Lee Van Cleef. As I mentioned above I am surprised that no one figured it out from the Clint Eastwood connection..

569 - House of Dark Shadows?

It isn't that film, but I can understand why you thought it may have been,

A little assistance is not a horror film

C568 The Odd Couple

C568 The Odd Couple

Correct. The Odd Couple from 1968.

I have just realised that this image has accidently made a repeat appearance here. This double up usage is rare, but it does happen on the odd occasion. I will endeavour to check to see that it doesn't occur again.

C571
The latest images set to challenge you.,

dedeposter · February 24

C570 - The Magic Box (1951), I thought the image in C571 was from that film but when I went searching for The Magic Box I discovered the image from C570! And now I recognise the image in C571...but I'll leave that to someone else.

Bruce · February 24

Since there are not tons of movies with old time cinemas, how about Cinema Paradiso for C571?

Correct. Ronald Shiner is the featured actor credited as being a fairground barker in my earlier posted image scene.

A good guess but not correct.

You are right in saying that there aren't too many films featuring old time cinemas. With this one though you may need to think outside the box.

dedeposter · February 25

If no one gets the other picture by tomorrow I'll answer it. It's one of my favourite films.

Bruce · February 25

The only other classic movie I can think of with an old-time movie theater is The Smallest Show on Earth but I could not find that image, so it is likely wrong. But it is worth mentioning because it is an excellent movie!

Full marks for trying to solve this one Bruce, and yes The Smallest Show on Earth Is a great film.

Not a single movie theatre involved here, but a travelling company that travelled on the road covering vast areas to bring cinema to small outback towns that didn't have cinemas.

I'll answer this evening if no one can get the answer today...I totally understand why Bruce wouldn't be able to guess it.

Bruce has auctioned fourteen posters from this film thou.gh, so he is aware of the film's existence.
On saying that the film isn't that well known in the U.S.A.
