About Clint Eastwood: 
Clinton "Clint" Eastwood, Jr. (born May 31, 1930) is 
an American actor, filmmaker, musician, and
politician. He rose to international fame with his role 
as the Man with No Name in Sergio Leone's Dollars 
trilogy of spaghetti Westerns during the 1960s, and 
as Harry Callahan in the five Dirty Harry films 
throughout the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, 
among others, have made him an enduring cultural 
icon of masculinity. 
For his work in the films Unforgiven (1992) and 
Million Dollar Baby (2004), Eastwood won Academy 
Awards for Best Director and Producer of the Best 
Picture, as well as receiving nominations for Best 
Actor. His greatest commercial successes have been 
Every Which Way But Loose (1978) and its sequel, 
Any Which Way You Can (1980), after adjustment for 
inflation. Other popular films include Hang 'Em High 
(1968), Play Misty for Me (1971), Thunderbolt and 
Lightfoot (1974), The Outlaw Josey Wales (1976), 
Escape from Alcatraz (1979), Firefox (1982), 
Tightrope (1984), Pale Rider (1985), Heartbreak 
Ridge (1986), In the Line of Fire (1993), The Bridges 
of Madison County (1995), and Gran Torino (2008). 
In addition to directing many of his own star 
vehicles, Eastwood has also directed films in which 
he did not appear, such as Mystic River (2003) and 
Letters from Iwo Jima (2006), for which he received
Academy Award nominations, and Changeling 
(2008). He received considerable critical praise in 
France for several films including some which were 
not well received in the United States. He has been 
awarded two of France's highest honors: in 1994 he 
became a recipient of the Commandeur of the Ordre 
des Arts et des Lettres and in 2007 he was awarded 
the Légion d'honneur medal. In 2000, he was 
awarded the Italian Venice Film Festival Golden Lion 
for lifetime achievement.
