Yet. But I will. I am such an Eastwood fan, from The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly to Unforgiven (my first date with the man who became my honey-for-life), he rocks. Great tribute!

He's been one of America's best directors for over 30 years. I think the Academy Awards gave his Unforgiven Best Picture but I don't know if he's ever even been nominated for best actor. Hopefully his reciepts at the box office help to ease his disappointment. ;)<br /><br />http://www.cinemasoldier.com/articles/2010/9/22/hereafter-the-new-clint-eastwood-movie-has-a-trailer.htmlHarryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09628269009060185397noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-71940052896740375422011-01-27T15:49:12.271-05:002011-01-27T15:49:12.271-05:00John - That's when Eastwood was at his best, w...John - That's when Eastwood was at his best, when he was interacting with Ahney Hao. They lit up the screen together - perhaps the best female lead he's ever worked with. And you're absolutely right about her career... she is a bright light. And oh, tell your mom she has exquisite taste.<br /><br />Deanna - Can you imagine? A note from Clint Eastwood. I'd die! I'd just die!<br /><br />Laurita - Yes, like whiskey. I hope he lives forever.<br /><br /><br /><br />Joann - I love Jamie Cullum, too.<br /><br />Sutton - thanks for dropping by! <br /><br />Liz - Yes! You MUST see this movie (you and Deanna, too). It will knock your socks off. You'll cry more than cousin Karen did at Terms of Endearment. (Make sure you're wearing waterproof mascara.)<br /><br />Carrie - My father loved Clint Eastwood, too. My father-in-law had every movie he ever made, I think. My husband calls him Squint McClint and whenever he can't sleep, he puts on one of his old westerns.Cathy Olliffe-Websterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12729578896443750402noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-5833700613691939782011-01-27T15:37:25.018-05:002011-01-27T15:37:25.018-05:00My Mom is insanely in love with this movie.

I enjoyed it both for the drama and for the instances when Eastwood bordered on self-parody (there is such a thing as too intense). In particular Ahney Hao knocked my socks off. Shame on the film industry for not snatching her up and making her a star after that performance.John Wiswellhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07416044628686736927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-22048144650420424322011-01-27T15:12:07.957-05:002011-01-27T15:12:07.957-05:00Cathy, I can't believe, as much as I like East...Cathy, I can't believe, as much as I like Eastwood - and I Love Clint Eastwood! - that I haven't seen this movie. The video does make it seem as brilliant as you say it is, now I must see it! <br />And how dear of you to write him a letter, to express your gratitude. I hope somehow he finds this and puts you in his next movie. :)Deanna Schrayerhttp://theothersideofdeanna.wordpress.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8260274117021957060.post-87509810273084966212011-01-27T15:08:15.079-05:002011-01-27T15:08:15.079-05:00I loved that movie and yes, Clint Eastwood is a br...I loved that movie and yes, Clint Eastwood is a brilliant marvel with his acting and now directing career.
