Parade has just released a commemorative issue of one of cinema's greatest.
Clint Eastwood: Tribute to an American Legend (The Man Behind the Squint/Happy 95th Birthday, Clint) is a 100-page adoration that covers the actor/director's life from his earliest, pre-Hollywood days to his golden years as a revered artist and statesman.
Eastwood's prime titles are covered, of course: Rawhide, A Fistful of Dollars; For a Few Dollars More; The Good, the Bad and the Ugly; High Plains Drifter; Hang 'Em High; Two Mules for Sister Sarah, The Outlaw Josie Wales, Pale Rider, Unforgiven, Joe Kidd; Coogan's Bluff; Bronco Billy; Dirty Harry; Magnum Force; The Enforcer; Sudden Impact; The Dead Pool; In the Line of Fire, City Heat, Bloodline, Where Eagles Dare; Heartbreak Bridge; Kelly's Heroes, The Eiger Sanction; Firefox; Thunderbolt and Lightfoot; The Gaunlet; Escape from Alcatraz; The Rookie; Any Which Way But Loose; Any Which Way You Can; Pink Cadillac; Space Cowboys, The Witches, The Beguiled, Play Misty for Me; Million Dollar Baby; Grand Torino; Bird ... The Changeling, plus a glimpse at his fledgling, contract-player parts.
Eastwood's loved ones are featured, too, along with his stint in the Army and his political positions, with interesting, sideline facts that fans are sure to savor, including a particular, tenuous link to comedian Stan Laurel. And to sweeten the pot, the magazine is filled with sharp, pleasing stills, a number of which are full-page.
