Dyin' ain't much of a living, boy.
Clint Eastwood
Casting a film is to me one of the most important things next to the writing. If you cast it properly everything takes place very easily. If you cast it improperly you're fighting an uphill battle.
Clint Eastwood
That's why I don't rehearse a lot and why I shoot a lot immediately. I have ideas of where I'd like to take the character, but we both end up going together.
Clint Eastwood
We don't even know who's in the Academy.
Clint Eastwood
It takes tremendous discipline to control the influence, the power you have over other people's lives.
Clint Eastwood
I guess a great movie would be one that has the most great moments in it.
