Eastwood's two Hillbilly comedy movies - The 2nd one two years later - are still creditable, and fun to watch when you need to cheer up sometimes.
I've read that this movie, due to inflation and many other points, still is the most money rewarding one during the whole Clint Eastwood career.
I think that it struck some jackpot timing (back in '78) by transforming the hissing western cowboy into an everybody/anybody average American dude, who's interests besides his job as a truck driver are country clubs, women and beer. Bare-nuckle illegal boxing for cash another hobby...
It may be grade as one of the smartest moves in movie history, to make Dirty Harry a fellow American dude.
The audience bought it at once, critics both cheered and booed at Clint's sudden genre flip. (What about "Paint Your Wagon"....?)
But of course both of the movies are nowadays dedicated to the orangutans. The screen time gave them much playful joy for sure.
A "small" American classic still today.
