I think it was in that interview I linked previously. Clint was directing Kevin Costner, and told him they were ready to shoot. Clint waited a few minutes, then told Costner’s stunt double to put on a shirt.
The double did the scene - walking across a field. The camera was so close that the image of the person was just a blur - probably an interesting artistic shot.
Costner comes out and says he’s ready for the shot. “We got it already - we’re moving on.”
Costner got pretty mad. Clint told him “I get paid to burn film.”
Other actors say how great it is to be on an Eastwood film because they learn so much.
Thats a great story, Clint has always come across as a no BS guy.
Good story! I’ve always loved Clint, disliked Costner.
