I lost my mom that very same year (2005) when I only 24yo. I remember how remarkable it was to see Eastwood's mom in the crowd and telling about it with much enthuthiasm to my own mother, who passed away a short while later

[@Finians_Mancave]

Um, because she's still alive and well, and sitting in the audience? At this point Clint was already an old man, he'd lived a hugely successful life, this was his second Oscar win and his mother was there to see him win it both times. A young person certainly needs the validation that comes from succeeding and having a parent acknowledge that... but Clint was 75 at this win. He'd been a worldwide mega-star for decades before that. His mother probably lives with him, so he sees her daily. Am I making my point clear?

[@michaelmonthey5974]

Clint is the best director…period! Unlike many directors who shoot the same scenes over and over again until they’re satisfied, Clint shoots no more than 2 takes and he expects his actors know what they’re supposed to do and how they’re supposed to do it before they roll cameras. That’s why his movies get done so quickly.

[@jofoster1596]

He shot The Bridges of Madison County, 36 days before it was scheduled to wrap. Part of the speed is a no fuss easy directing manner and using the same crew, that know exactly what to do and what he wants
