Book The Films of Clint Eastwood

Download or read book The Films of Clint Eastwood written by Matt Wanat and published by University of New Mexico Press. This book was released on 2018-05-15 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The indefatigable Clint Eastwood, the great old man of American film, is still controversial after all these years. Many of the critical essays in this collection focus on Eastwood’s 2014 American Sniper, a particularly controversial film and a devastating personal account of the horrors of war. Additional essays within the collection address his films that deserve more recognition than they have received to date. The chapters vary by topic and identify themes ranging from aging, race, and gender to uses of Western conventions and myth to the subtleties of quieter themes and stylistic choices in Eastwood’s body of cinematic work. As a collection, these essays show that none of these themes account for Eastwood’s entire vision, which is multifaceted and often contradictory, dramatizing complex issues in powerful, character-driven narratives.

Book The Clint Eastwood Westerns

Download or read book The Clint Eastwood Westerns written by James L. Neibaur and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2015-03-12 with total page 197 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While the western was a staple of cinema for many decades, the form began to fade as its greatest star, John Wayne, made fewer films of distinction toward the end of his career. In the mid-1960s, the genre was redefined by a handful of directors, including Don Siegel and Italian filmmaker Sergio Leone, who offered something edgier, bloodier, and more violent. Working with both directors was an actor who had made a name for himself on the small screen in the hit western Rawhide. While Clint Eastwood would also star in and direct a number of successes with contemporary settings, his work in westerns represents the most significant part of his film career. In The Clint Eastwood Westerns, James L. Neibaur takes a film-by-film look at each of the superstar’s signature works, from A Fistful of Dollars in 1964 to his modern-day classic Unforgiven, which earned him two Academy Awards, including best director. The author discusses in detail the production, impact, influences, and successes (both critical and commercial) of each film. In addition, Neibaur examines the continued success and influence of these works—how they redefined, challenged, and progressed the western genre. The book also features chapters that look at Eastwood’s other films in the context of his overall career. From the spaghetti westerns he made with Leone, including The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly,to his revisionist look at the Old West in Unforgiven, The Clint Eastwood Westerns shines a spotlight on some of the most thrilling films of the genre. For devotees of Eastwood—the actor or director—or simply fans of the western, this book is an entertaining look at one of Hollywood’s most enduring stars.

Book Directed by Clint Eastwood

Download or read book Directed by Clint Eastwood written by Laurence F. Knapp and published by McFarland. This book was released on 1996 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Though best known as an actor, Clint Eastwood has been directing films for 25 years. In that time little has been written about his style or viewpoint. Eastwood has embraced personal projects that investigate the perils of being an artist (such as Bronco Billy and Honkytonk Man) or a misfit or loner (e.g., Breezy and A Perfect World). Eastwood's 18 films as director are analyzed here, showing that they are more a part of his stylistic or aesthetic vision and not merely a showcase for his formidable public persona.

  • Author : Alessandro Canadè
  • Publisher : Luigi Pellegrini Editore
  • Release : 2012-11-08
  • ISBN : 8881018373
  • Pages : 112 pages

Download or read book Clint Eastwood written by Alessandro Canadè and published by Luigi Pellegrini Editore. This book was released on 2012-11-08 with total page 112 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Un nuovo libro su un autore classico. Un libro che affronta in forma imprevista e sorprendente uno dei grandi registi del cinema contemporaneo: Clint Eastwood. Il volume, pubblicato da Pellegrini Editore e curato da Alessandro Canadè e Alessia Cervini, è introdotto da Roberto De Gaetano, che presenta l’articolazione del volume (il primo della serie "Nomi Propri" all’interno della Collana "Frontiere") costruito come un lessico tematico con saggi su "Adozione" "Amicizia" "Icona" "Inattuale" "Perseveranza" "Icona" "Incarnazione" "Fantasma" "Tragico", con contributi tra gli altri di Marcello Walter Bruno, Daniele Dottorini, Alessandra Azzali, Luca Venzi, Bruno Roberti, Alessandro Cappabianca. Quello che ne esce è l’immagine nuova di un autore, guardato sotto il filtro di prospettive eterogenee ma integrate (che giungono fino al suo ultimo film "J. Edgar"), capaci di collocarsi oltre le più usuali etichette, che fanno di Eastwood e del suo cinema uno dei luoghi più intensi per pensare le forme di esistenza nella contemporaneità. Come dice De Gaetano nell’Introduzione: «Eastwood in un esercizio di tessitura simbolica dell’immaginario classico, che ne spiega la sua "inattualità", ci fa vedere all’opera il costituirsi o il dissolversi di un soggetto alle prese con la vita colta nei momenti che mettono alla prova, e dunque che mettono in condizione il soggetto di cambiare o perdersi, fino a morire».
