Birthday, age 92 in 2022 on May 31


He has no films in production, but will appear in three documentaries in 2022.

I loved (and still do) Dirty Harry and his many Western films growing up.

The mans a legend and it's crazy he's still active at his age. Hopefully he's capable physically and still enjoying his life, hopefully he has more years left in him.

Documentaries about what?

I looked at his IMDB page, and saw that he has not been directing, acting in or producing anything since Cry Macho. Under Self:

Presenting Geraldine Page (Documentary) (post-production), Self - One of many actors and actresses, living and dead, commenting about the career of actress Geraldine Page.

The Chainsaw Artist (Documentary) (post-production), Self - Apparently about a chainsaw artist. It says nothing. Documentary starring Clint, Scott, and Alison Eastwood, Sam Elliott, and others.

Directed By (Documentary) (completed), Self - About The 72nd Academy Awards telecast aired on March 26th, 2000, which drew a huge television audience.

Happy Birthday Clint!

I wish he would write/authorize a truly in-depth autobiography - not of gossipy stuff or how many women he has bedded, but of his lifelong experiences over the years and how he went from starring in flicks like Tarantula to his later masterpieces.

I mean, look at all the people he has spent time with and the stories that must be there - from Richard Burton to Lee Marvin to old and new Hollywood.

Yes, there have been tons of stuff already out there, but so much of it comes from other people.

At his age, I'm not sure he could focus on writing it. Or even dictating it.

Richard Schickel wrote a pretty good bio -- with Eastwood's cooperation -- back in the 90s. But look at all the movies Clint has directed since then(and starred in a few.)
