Clint is a great actor, director and musician. Very few people can claim to have all these talents together. He makes low budget movies stressing more on story. All his movies are classics. I still remember Gran Torino was released with less fanfare but went on to become a hit. It surprised everyone with its story. May he live longer and make many more such movies.
Both as an Actor and Director,the Contribution of Clint eastwood is more than anyone in the world ,be it akiro kurashiwa,guru dutt,Satyajit Ray,Alfred Hitchcock,kamal hassan,Amitabh Bachan or whoever u may name
As an actor,he brought style needed for a Hero,especially while lighting a match...which obviously Rajini copied.. He also brought Punch Dialogues like "do i feel lucky,punk" He revolutionized the Loose Cop genre with Dirty Harry Series which was implemented everywhere in world cinema He also inspired the Cowboy theme still popular in the world
As a director,he's taken Oscar worthy movies of the likes of Unforgiven,Invictus,Million Dollar Baby,Mystic River,Changelling etc..

Blue Wrox....better watch 'Knock Out' this weekend...and continue to think that bollywood is d best....
Akiro and Ray have inspired Martin Scorcese..i dnt knw whether u knww that guy with your limited intelligence of yours...
So i think i should stop arguing this dumb moron who calls other jokers despite d fact that he's born to be ridiculed by others..
Clint Eastwood has been getting better and better with age. Most of his recent films have been "slow-moving" but have connected with his audiences very much. One of the most recent examples of this was Gran Torino. It is hard to believe that Eastwood made a living out of spaghetti Westerns during his youth.
