The Films of Clint EastwoodAuthor :

Description
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 Eastwoodâ?Ts 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 Eastwoodâ?Ts body of cinematic work. As a collection, these essays show that none of these themes account for Eastwoodâ?Ts entire vision, which is multifaceted and often contradictory, dramatizing complex issues in powerful, character-driven narratives.
