Clint Eastwood: A Cinematic Legacy | Episode 5: An Actor's Director | Warner Classics

[@Mauidemigod249]

Just watched Juror 2. What a masterpiece. Clint is a Legend. He is cinema

[@twhelostl61]

Been watching CE's movies for over 50 years. Have dozens of classics from "Old Hollywood" saved in a YT File on my smart phone. Watched "The Philadelphia Story" on Thanksgiving day. Clint has made so many terrific films. "The good, The bad and The ugly" 1966 directed by Sergio Leone might have been my first. Many attain stardom in Hollywood. When Spielberg looks up to you. That's a gold star. A living legend.

[@PrimeFerryson]

Clint Eastwood style of directing is not only a good influence in movie making but also in all walks of life.

[@lexkanyima2195]

And creative and believable.

[@Murgatroyd999]

There are not a lot of people in the film industry that garner universal acclaim & love from their compatriots like Clint Eastwood. Can you ever recall anyone in the film industry saying something negative about him? The man is a beloved American treasure & one of mankind’s greatest storytellers. ❤

[@TimSeraphiel]

The man is a legend. Sad to see his last film be quietly released without fanfare as if it's an embarrassment.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

Yeah, I am not too happy with Warner Bros. for not giving his last film a nationwide release despite the fact that it’s getting enthusiastic reviews after all the success he’s given them for the last half century.

[@lexkanyima2195]

​@michaelmonthey5974 to have a swanson like that, needs to more theatrical release. But the president of Warner Bros was so disrespectful towards Clint.

[@michaelmonthey5974]

@@lexkanyima2195 Yeah, David Zaslow shook the studio up when he came in and was upset that “Cry Macho” was made and released even though it was already done before he was hired and kinda put an unfortunate end to the studio’s decades-long “loyalty” to Clint. The big problem is that the new executives and managers at the studio are so obsessed with cashing in on trendy franchises, political trends, and whatever, that they don’t realize they have a good non-franchise movie on their hands anymore.

[@lexkanyima2195]

@@michaelmonthey5974 we need to boycott the executives

[@michaelmonthey5974]

@ Yeah, I’m less likely to see another Warner movie in the foreseeable future.

[@ron6940]

Some absolutely top notch performances directed by Clint. The 3 leads in mystic river might be the most sustained acting by a trio in a Clint flim that is not spoken about as much as Unforgiven or Million dollar baby which too have dynamic triple performances

[@lidijavrban1211]

Od kad se prvi put pojavio postao je moj omiljeni C.I.i divim mu se sto još može toliko raditi,iako sam i ja stara ,ha, legendo moja.❤❤❤❤❤

[@di942842]

And he's still directing!! Wished only that this doco was longer coz man, he's been at this for more than 70 years!!

[@BrianCarnevaleB26]

Go on Wikipedia and read his filmography. It is epic & informative, covering every film in order to give you a different POV than you will hear in this video.

[@di942842]

@BrianCarnevaleB26 Thanks, will do. Am proud to say tho that I am very much familiar with Clint's work. I was only hoping the doco chronicling his work was longer. Turns out, it is longer, this video is part 4. I have since watched all 7 clips. Anyway, M My dad long schooled me on Clint's work. I was the odd one out in elementary school in an Asian country having watched A Fistful of Dollars, The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly, For a Few Dollars More. This was in the 80s and my dad was making us watch 60s films. I have long been a fan and have watches his films long after my dad passed and I imagine long after Clint passes.

[@jon545]

Clint has always been a hero in films with me and will always be . The man always made a good movie and will till he can't any more . God bless him in all he does :)

[@bimbahinojosa246]

He's a Legend! ❤👏

[@terencem8795]

Bottom line, he is at the top of the Hollywood legend stack. Without a doubt. My mom though, is a close second.

[@t21229513]

Outstanding

[@adamquiles2468]

He became an auteur like Oliver Stone and Martin Scorsese. He had always wanted to be like them since his Dirty Harry days but had to wait twenty years and then came Unforgiven

[@Njbear7453]

He may be a better director than he is an “actor”; there’s no denying he is an icon, a legend. Forever will be.

[@kellyBorgman]

Greatest director!

[@ExhumedTornado]

One of the best actors.

[@hectoradrianfalcon4950]

Tramendo actor ....!! Que mas decir.❤👍

[@peterjohn85]

That was lovely.

[@JohannesYtterstrom]

Lovely clip this! Looking forward to Juror #2 !

[@theprofessor8821]

Dollars Trilogy made me a fan of Clint Eastwood, the actor and superstar, but Unforgiven made me a fan, rather an admirer of Clint Eastwood, the filmmaker

[@tylerolsonfilms]

Go ahead. This made my day

[@theathlete1903]

Legend!

[@redcomet0079]

He’s more important to cinema than John Wayne

[@Njbear7453]

That’s a bold statement cotton; he’s just this generation’s John Wayne !

[@redcomet0079]

@ it’s a true statement

[@andrewgardner8972]

I heard Clint Eastwood went to bat for Mario van peebles at Warner Brothers when Mario was going to act and direct new Jack city with Wesley Snipes and ice T. And Mario had worked with Clint Eastwood before on heartbreak ridge. So Clint Eastwood is a real mensch. So I liked that he vouched for him. Because he saw talent in actors like he was in the old days and if they wanted to be directors like him, they’d have experience in working with a professional like Clint Eastwood.

[@BeauDare-ov7py]

@Andrew, Very well said. All best wishes.

[@jrz.zrj1461]

Juror #2 in more theaters, please!

[@lexkanyima2195]

True

[@pierceholston6639]

@2:00 Ridley Scott had a similar sentiment, "If you cast right, from a director's point of view, 50% of your problems are over and done with on the day." I am of course paraphrasing sir Ridley but that's basically what he said.

[@lexkanyima2195]

And are you done

[@robertengland8769]

The man with no name is really cool.

[@geraldadams6267]

Mr. Clint Eastwood

[@chefgipson]

Yeah. I remember!

[@rossfranklin2782]

Shame on you WB for the appalling release of Juror #2, way to treat a legend.

[@mitchlancaster566]

Wow

[@freshbarofsoap]

Let's do a mini-documentary about a director who was a master at eliminating distractions and the unnecessary, but let's add distracting and unnecessary background music.

[@skinnersweet1263]

Gosh … good thing that a dude who loves makes massive amount of coverage that sure the editors can humble with ! 😬

[@garywagner2466]

Huh? New to English?

[@skinnersweet1263]

@ Kek ah-ha… it’s the Brits’s way of making things right !? 😬

[@Cueseca]

Wow he doesn't look to be in his 90s at all.

[@anthonygilmore5969]

I wonder why clint never has to kiss another man?

[@heartdawg]

Wtf?!!🙄

[@garywagner2466]

Having a fantasy?
