A
Tribute to Clint Eastwood
Clint Eastwood
is one of the most prolific, versatile artists in the history of the
medium, involving himself first as an actor, then as a director,
producer and composer. In 2004, Eastwood’s critically acclaimed drama
“Million Dollar Baby” earned seven Academy Award nominations and won
four Oscars. In 2003, “Mystic River” won six Academy Award nominations
and two Oscars. Eastwood’s 1993 foreboding, revisionist western, “Unforgiven,”
won nine Academy Award nominations and four Oscars. Successful
soundtrack albums have been a consistent Eastwood signature to his
films, be they jazz-oriented (“Bird,” “The Bridges of Madison County,”
“Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil”) or country (“Every Which Way
But Loose,” “Bronco Billy,” “Any Which Way You Can,” and “Honkytonk
Man”.) Working with composer Lennie Niehaus, Eastwood wrote the key
melody for both “Unforgiven” (Claudia’s Theme) and “The Bridges of
Madison County” (Doe Eyes). Eastwood also composed the score for
“Million Dollar Baby” and “Mystic River.” This Screen Actors Guild Life
Achievement and Kennedy Center Honors Award winner has won the People’s
Choice Award five times.
