I never saw Clint Eastwood movies until he started directing, and even then, I wasn't aware he was the director until after having seen the movie (I always sit through the credits). Each film that I did see was particularly well crafted, and I liked them all, except for the sentimental slop Bridges of Madison County (Meryl Streep is a creep).

Other than that, I thought highly of Richard Jewell, Jersey Boys, American Sniper, and Mystic River.

Eastwood as a director is like Robert Duvall as an actor—he tells peculiarly American stories.

I am trying to remember whether Duvall and Eastwood ever worked on a film together
