SynopsisThis will make your day!   A richly illustrated retrospective celebrating the life and films of Clint Eastwood-written by renowned film critic, and acclaimed documentary filmmaker, Richard Schickel and with an introduction by the legend himself.   Clint Eastwood is a Hollywood-and American-icon: beloved by critics and audiences alike, he has carved out a uniquely successful career that's spanned more than half a century and sixty movies. Acclaimed as both actor and director, as well as for his musical compositions, he's won multiple Oscars for his achievements in front of and behind the camera and has established himself as a true cinematic great.   This stunning volume presents a chronological look at his astonishing body of work, from the early "spaghetti westerns" to his iconic role as "Dirty" Harry Callahan in Dirty Harry (1971), to the soulful Bird (1988) and the revolutionary western Unforgiven (1992) through to more recent films such as the Academy Award-winning Mystic River (2003) and Million Dollar Baby (2004), and his latest picture, the rousing drama Invictus , starring Matt Damon and Morgan Freeman, which was released in December 2009.   Over 300 spectacular images, including dynamic stills from memorable screen performances and revealing behind-the-scenes photos, are accompanied by Richard Schickel's incisive and illuminating commentary.

  • Clint A Retrospective

    Clint A Retrospective book there are 2 hardcover versions one with a dvd. Different publishers, I have both, the first edition has the dvd (ISBN 9781402774720 Sterling Publishing)and sticker saying so covering up to invictus of which i am not a fan it has 288 pages. The 2nd edition (ISBN 9781435153431 Fall River Press,,Palazzo Editions) covers up to Hereafter,no dvd same cover and 296 pages. And there's a softcover version too.As a 80s baby i grew up on Eastwood westerns and his Dirty Harry series both of which i prefer compared to his most recent work. Clint A Retrospective is a favorable look at the Man and his resume. Fawning perhaps and sometimes a bit too hung up on the psychology of Masculinity which i don't care for nonetheless a sympathetic and nicely done Coffee table book.
