The amount of swagger Clint is carrying in this scene, movie and all his life is enough to make any man wanna be a badass just like him.

It’s such a simple title sequence but it’s so flawlessly shot and scored and edited that it’s impossible not to enjoy and Clint Eastwood is so insanely cool and charismatic.

@Paul-vc8on

Far from "such a simple title sequence," it's actually quite complex, not only visually but thematically as well, foreshadowing what's coming in the movie proper.

Shifrin has been a genius rock star for almost 60 years. His music can make any movie a lot better. Sometimes it's the best thing in the movie. An amazing talent.

Don Siegel was such a great director. Love how he has Clint coolly work his way up to the top of the building but cuts off Lalo's brilliant fast-paced frenetic score just for a few seconds so we can hear that giant fan and the footsteps along the metal walkway with that great camera angle looking up at Harry.

Imperative to watch Coogan's Bluff too - same star, same director, three years earlier but showing the same sensitivity to a city-as-character (New York there, San Fran here)

That panning rooftop shot just before Harry finds the shell case is very well done.

San Francisco was just as much a star in this movie as Clint Eastwood.. love watching these and being immersed in San Francisco in the 70's.

I just love the music score in this opening credit. Great composition of music. A classic.

i love this film its a masterpeice, the sound track is just something else, realy nitty gritty dirty innercity kinda sound that sets the pace to the movie.

No fancy CGI, just great cinematography, a soundtrack that conveys the suspense and seriousness of the storyline and an actor that's never done a bad film. Like with music, it's getting rarer and rarer to come across anything that's in the same league as stuff created in the 60s, 70s and to some degree the 80's.

One of the best movie openings. It's all dramatic and fast paced one minute, laid back the next.

Although not a cop, Lee Marvin in Point Blank, 1967.

I was able to take a film class in college 2 years ago and one of the notable parts about late 60s/70s movies was the huge transition from generally filming on set to filming outside, at least with crime films. The 70s Neo-Noir genre is personally one of my favorites

Lalo Schifrin is sheer brilliance and talent.

Bloody hell clint looks ultra cool & badass

Beautiful score by the great Lalo.

Whenever I see the opening score I'm amazed at the shot taken from such a distance considering wind speed, height and gravity.

lalo’s music is bad ass

You can tell this is 1970's music from conga drums, bass guitar, piano, trumpets, eventually the beginning of 70's music from movie themes would make it pop music made into disco, funk, etc after the psychedelic rock music from mid 60's ended in the early 70's.

REALLY TIGHT SOUNDTRACK DUDE,MAN I CAN DIG THOSE GROOVES BABY!

Great 70s funk jazzacid. Theme from Street of San Fransisco is fantastic.

I remember trying to watch this as a kid at a birthday party but an older guy wouldn't let me. Saw it on my own eventually anyway.

lalo schifrin es argentino y uno mas de los tantos genios nacidos en argentina

I couldn't agree more...from 3:13 to 3:30 is sheer heaven.

I saw this movie the day it was released I was 13 years old I've seen it at least 200 times since then my favorite movie of all time

Shifrin at his best. Thanks for this.

I remember the first time I watched the movie, the music (and the scene in general) at 1:57 gave me chills. It still does. Incredible.

Those session cats cut such a groooove that day, man...Lalo bought 'em some grass and they smoked it like tigers on vaseline or eatin' a piece of fried chicken, y'dig? Funky music sho' nuff turns me on...shamone!!

3.13 oh that key board is spine chillingly brilliant, I play it many times truly amazing

Sometimes when I try to listen to this from start to finish, without interruption. I just am compelled, and can't resist, to skip back to 2:40. The way the tone drops to a foreboding, haunting beat. And seeing Scorpio's perfect sniping view, this brings you back to realise that this movie means business. After the twangy, catchy, infectious, foot tapping, psuedo porn music that precedes it. Perfect use of direction, editing, timing, camera and music. :)

Perfect soundtrack for this movie. Lalo Schifrin hit it right on.

Schifrin's music is so cool and unmistakable.

Always laugh at the annoyed cop at 0:01 that Harry almost hits with the door. Even in the first few seconds he's onscreen, it's already established that the character of Callahan really doesn't give a shit about anybody.

The opening credit sequence inspired both Shaft and Enter The Dragon's credits sequences with a character walking through a major city scape.

Outrageously groovy, Lalo AF!!!

Absolutely cool stuff.. 😊

The best part of the music was yet to come, especially that bass line.

Just the coolest intro to a super cool film.

This is my go to theme in my head, .. even if I`m only going to the local shop

Acid Jazz!

This is the soundtrack in my head when I'm walking through North Beach or FiDi.

Greatest movie of all time.

The music is excellent.

"Dirty Harry" was a hard core movie, with Clint Eastwood playing a much less sympathetic character than in the later films of the DH series.There was huge potential to continue the development of the "rogue cop"character as first conceived. Eastwood actually played really villainous roles very well (as in "White Hunter, Black Heart" ) and should have done it more often.

To this day, the absolute epitome of cool 😎

I wonder if Carol Kaye did the bass work in this opening theme. Sounds like her style.

What‘s so great with this 70th movies and music, they have a suspense bow. They take their time to build up suspense - and you know it will end in a crescendo or an outbreak of violance. Modern movies and music don’t take that time anymore. It’s all fast cuts or music with every tone pressed to maximum loudness. That is the reason that modern music and film is bullshit.
