It saddens me that this generation of people are coming to the end of their lives. So much energy and enthusiasm and such a positive view of the world. If only we could bottle the secret sauce that has made such men like Clint. Simply wonderful!
Clint Eastwood is an outstanding role model of a man that has no need to walk in anyone else's shoes as he's very comfortable in his own. All that Clint Eastwood is and presents, is on display for all to see and to learn from should they wish to do so. There are many others out there that fit into this category. However, an individual does need to know what they're looking for to identify it and potentially learn from it. This applies to all.
He Fathered over 16 'known' Children out of WedLock! Every Woman that ever lived with him , stated he treated them badly. (John Wayne did not like him.)
Clint Eastwood puts anything he thinks he can push the envelope with into many of his Movies. Therefore have helped lead many shallow minded right down the road to Perdition. (&) In in his personal life, a horrible history of lack of sexual control ; over 16 Children out of Wedlock with some raised in Orphanages. Virtually all the Women he lived with, stated he mistreated them in various sad ways. (We must for the sake of our Children, Country, World, NOT over glamorize people in the entertainment business!)
Not only is Clint Eastwood one of the most inventive, resourseful actor/ directors, but he is also a fine human being who treats his actors with respect and kindness. As an American actor/screenwriter, I tip my hat to him.. A million best wishes, Clint..
There will never be another Clint Eastwood. He is the epitome of raw masculinity, whether in his 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s, and yes, 90s. He exudes coolness 😎
I was a guest of the BBC and was lucky enough to be in the audience sat just opposite Parkies chair, after the interview I shook Clint’s hand during his brief stay in the Green Room. Didn’t get to speak to him, I just wanted to say a big thank you to him for all the great movies he’s been in and long may it continue…my hero.
RIP Michael Parkinson one of the mainstays of the BBC since the 70’s. He was good at letting his guests speak without constant interruption, something that todays interviewers could well employ. He along with Dick Cavett were probably the best two on each side of the Atlantic. An expat watching in S Florida.
Eastwood is a faker. He lied to get out of fighting in the Korean war then went on to make countless terrible films portraying extremely unrealistic and idiotically glamourised violenc. Cool, Eastwood is not. A boring and fairly unintelligent right wing clown, he most certainly is.
My Dad was the same, and we lost him in January. We had some Clint quotes in frames at the wake, and the one that I kept is “We are like boxers. One never knows how much longer one has”. ♥️
Couldn’t watch High Plains Drifter though . Had to turn it off but no doubt a classic but for me I can’t see one of My Heroes behave like that on a film
My dad and me use to sit up late and watch Clint's Westerns. Here in the UK they were put on TV late. Dad and i would have a good old cup of coffee. Having this time with just my dad and me was perfect. My mum and brother would be in bed. Dad and me would enjoy. Quality dad and Daughter time that i will cherish. Clint is brilliant in what he does.
Clint is one of a kind,I grew up watching the westerns,a remarkable man who has good old fashioned values,a remarkable actor and equally an amazing director!..the word Legend is definitely apt for this man.
Clint, you are one of the best. What ever you put your hand to, you are successful. Man, all I can say is, You are a GREAT, COOL, DUDE ! You have made your mark my man !!
Today ...Sir .Sean Connery died . 007... always . Time ... fleeting. Parkinson, Clint Eastwood, , Billy Connolly , heaven's sake , the list is endless . Thank you , God, for allowing me the opportunity of such awesome and wonderful people into my life .X!
My old moviestar! Followed him since his western and always like his presence. He just has something around him that you just feel, without any words. Mystic river is one of his best in my opinion as a director.
For some reason my memory of this interview was that he had been one of those "difficult" guests who didn't say much and answered in monosyllables. I was clearly mistaken. He comes across here as incredibly engaging, talkatative, humble and above all a really interesting nice guy. A delight to watch
I agree with you completely. The biggest problem with the society of young America nowadays is that they look at racial stirrers as heroes. No wonder why the character of American society has declined.
I've never had the pleasure of meeting Clint but I did meet an actor in my previous job who has met him.He said that Clint is a great guy.I know other people who've had friends or relatives who've met him and they all said that he's great.Great guy and no ego.
@@johndavis9432 I met him in the 90s.y friend used to be a avid autograph collector & he knew how big a fan i was of his. So when he came to London, he asked if I was interested in meeting him which I was. He had no entourage and would walk around by himself. And yes, he is as cool in real life as he is in the movies.
@@ramkrishnayadav2326 I believe all of it.Almost everyone who has ever worked with him likes him and many of those people are friends of his including Charles Bronson ,Arnold Schwarzenegger,Morgan Freeman Paul Newman,Gene Hackman Sean Connery,Anne Archer,Forest Whittaker and many others.Many have said that he doesn't have an ego and he's very down to earth.The polar opposite of that asshole John Wayne.
the coolest chap there is, the way he shook hands with the lady first said just about anything you need to know about polite lovely people , utter respect one of lifes greats
A great friend of mine knows Clint very well and met him a few times. He said he is a genuine gentleman who has no entourage as he prefers doing his own thing.
Love loved loved Clint Eastwood in rawhide was my favorite show when I was a young girl so attractive, so talented no-one like him these days well maybe Tom hanks ❤🇦🇺
The, first film I ever purchased of Clint Eastwood was his fistful of dollars and from there explored his filmlogoy and his life on what's been written on him! Surely one of the best it would be interesting have seen him and Newman work together on a project or two just never happened. Mr. Eastwood surely know dumber, but well-spoken, very drivern, and well read individual he's great to listened to and read about!
I remember watching this in Portugal on a Saturday evening. My first holiday with my girlfriend, who is my wife now. Not done an interview like this since.
Gosh this is twenty years ago already. It's still fascinating to watch and hear Eastwood reflect on his career. He had and has a great attitude toward work. I don't think he cared much for Ben Elton. Don't blame him either!
A tremendously underrated movie.It's really one of the classic westerns even though that dipshit John Wayne gave Clint hell about it saying that it had nothing to do with the settling of the west.Clint explained (probably very patiently)that it was just a movie that it was entertainment and it wasn't meant to be about that.
@@paulmcdonough1093 The acting in "The Beguiled" was excellent but I didn't really like that movie.It wasn't really my kind of movie and I didn't like it that Clint was really the villain.The movie that Clint starred in that's really underrated is "Play Misty For Me".The acting by Clint and Jessica Walter (who's a friend of his in real life) was outstanding and even though I don't know anything about making movies,people said that Clint really did an outstanding job directing too ( and it was his first attempt at directing).
He is such a calm, level headed guy. I also like that he takes those qualities into his directing when on set. I wish I could be just a little like that. Life would be so much better for me & those around me.
He has had 16 Children out of Wedlock. Two were raised in Orphanages. The Women, Children who have been ruined by him , emotionally, financially tell a different story. ( Actor John Wayne in his last Interview, even predicted Clint Eastwood's future ; personally ,professionally and why. Therefore Actor John Wayne refused to work with him on any Movie.
@@joycemaclean8354 After the number was put on Wikipedia, his Public Relations Department, put together a Photo shoot of all these Children standing behind him as he sat in a Chair. One of the Children that had been raised in an Orphanage did an Interview that Clint Eastwood did not continue any contact with her. (&) Check out on Y.Tb. , actor John Wayne's last Interview approximately 1977 ; and why he refused to do any Movies with Clint Eastwood. One of the reasons was even that far back he already had Illegitimate Children being born then!
'Bridges of Madison County' ... to me belongs to the most wonderful movies of all times .. where Love and Life is the invisible bracket rather than a bold hook . it also clearly speaks in the voice of Clint Eastwoods Oeuvre 😯💐👒
In the 50’s Burt Reynolds and Clint Eastwood were both fired from Universal studios on the same day. Burt because he was told he couldn’t act and Clint because he had a prominent Adam’s apple. After they had been fired, Burt said to Clint ‘you’re in real trouble now’. To which Clint replied ‘ me?, you’re just as fired as I am’ and Burt said ‘yeah, but I can learn to act, but you’re always going to have that Adam’s apple’ 😂😂😂
my dad was quiet and serious but had a quiet sense of humour he was alaways busy strong but not a bully or arrogant he had a certain quality and thats rare today
