Eastwood doesn’t like retakes. I think he believes too many filmmakers are self indulgent prima donnas who want twenty takes of every shot.

He knows what he wants, and he hires skills people, and then rehires them, so you don’t need ten retakes.

Much of the movie is Clint driving, as you’d expect, and he’s singing. I mean they probably filmed him for like two or three hours, and edited the thing.

I mean he makes it look easy, but after 38 movies or so, I think he’s got the hang of it.
