Clint Eastwood’s illustrious film career, both behind and in
front of the camera, has spanned more than a half century and has
touched generations of filmgoers across the globe. The
filmmaker/actor has won five Academy Awards®, while his films
have grossed nearly $2 billion at the domestic box office.
The collection, considered the largest feature film box set ever
released for a single artist, contains 35 classic Eastwood films
from the Warner library, and highlights the breadth and depth of
his extraordinary work. The box set will span from Where Eagles
Dare (1968), through to Invictus (2010). The set includes the
classic Dirty Harry movies, O® winners and nominees such as
Mystic River and Unforgiven, the westerns that propelled him to
fame, gritty war movies including Letters From Iwo Jima and s
of Our hers, classic comedies such as Every Which Way But
Loose, and many more besides.
An additional film is The Eastwood Factor. An short
film from Time magazine critic and film historian Richard
Schickel, The Eastwood Factor gives viewers a rare in into
the life of the filmmaker and actor. Eastwood’s candid,
intelligent and often humorous interviews about his work, along
with Schickel’s selection of scenes from his movies, result in an
up-close and personal portrait of one of the great icons of our
era. The documentary offers a clear reminder of why Eastwood’s
career as both a great filmmaker and actor has been so enduring,
and his work so respected.
Eastwood’s relationship with Warner Bros. began in 1975 with the
signing of a long-term pact, and Eastwood’s Malpaso Productions
moved onto the studio’s lot. Among the many awards the
actor/filmmaker has received for his work are four Os® and 11
nominations, including Best Picture and Best Director Academy
Award® wins. Eastwood has also received five Golden Globes®,
countless critic’s association accolades and lifetime achievement
awards from, among others, the Directors Guild of America, Screen
Actors Guild, the American Film Institute and the Hollywood
Foreign Press Association (Cecil B. DeMile Award). In addition,
the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences presented him
with the Irving G. Thalberg Memorial Award. Recently, Eastwood
was made a commander in the prestigious French Legion of Honor
(Légion d’honneur), cited for his "body of work, his longevity
and his ability to delight audiences around the globe".
Early in his career, Eastwood starred as the “Man with No Name”
in A Fistful of Dollars, his first spaghetti western, which was a
box office success and drew attention to the young actor.
Additional roles followed, including the role of Harry Callahan
in five Dirty Harry films, beginning in 1971. That same year, he
made his directorial debut with Play Misty for Me. Other noted
Eastwood films include the Charlie Parker biography Bird; The
Bridges of Madison County, In the Line of Fire, Midnight in the
Garden of Good and Evil, White Hunter, Black Heart, Absolute
Power, Space Cowboys, Mystic River, s of Our hers, Letters
from Iwo Jima and, most recently, Gran Torino. His newest film,
Invictus, stars O® winners Morgan Freeman and Matt Damon in

unite their country.
