Also back - quite literally - on an old stomping ground last week was Chicago Correspondent Richard Woodbury, who reported to the Nation section on Round-the-World Walker David Kunst. Following on the heels of an earlier crack at peripatetic journalism - a glide-along with Cross-Country Roller Skater Clint Shaw last June -Woodbury logged ten huffing-and-puffing miles of legwork with the quick Kunst against a stiff head wind on a northern Iowa road...
...Kodiak, for instance (not to be too confused with Kojak), is an Alaska state trooper (Clint Walker), outfitted for trapping his man properly: snowmobile, snowshoes and icy determination. ABC's Nakia (Robert Banyon Forster) is a hot-tempered Navajo deputy sheriff in New Mexico, evidently intended to be confused with both the cult-film heroics of Billy Jack and the mystical-religious cant of Kung...

He plays a professional heist artist nicknamed Thunderbolt, who is hiding out after a big job and falls in with a fast-talking kid (Jeff Bridges). They bump around Montana, pursued by two of Eastwood's cronies (George Kennedy, Geoffrey Lewis) who had a hand in the Montana Armored robbery a couple years back and are looking for their share of the take. The take, however, has vanished, along with the one-room pioneer schoolhouse in which it was stashed...
Thunderbolt and Lightfoot. The new Clint Eastwood, which should be enough to say. Except that the proper Gonzo approach to Eastwood--getting off on the savage and appalling vulgarity of it all--may be undermined by the appearance of Jeff Bridges, who has been known to act. One can be assured that Eastwood won't. Don't miss it. At the Savoy...
