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). Over 300 spectacular images, including dynamic stills from memorable screen performances and revealing behind-the-scenes photographs, are accompanied by Richard Schickel s incisive and illuminating commentary.
Richard Schickel is the author, co-author or editor of thirty-six books and the writer-director-producer of a number of television documentaries. A film critic for Life and Time magazines for forty-three years, Schickel has held a Guggenheim Fellowship and was awarded an honorary degree by the American Film Institute as well as the British Film Institute Book Prize, and the Telluride Silver Medal, for his contribution to film history. Among his best known books are Elia Kazan: A Biography, Clint Eastwood: A Biography, The Disney Version, Brando: A Life in Our Times, Intimate Strangers: The Culture of Celebrity, his memoir, Good Morning Mr. Zip Zip Zip, Conversations with Scorsese and, most recently, Steven Spielberg: A Retrospective, also created by Palazzo Editions.
