Eastwood has starred in or directed roughly one movie a year for the past 53 years. Most of them have been pretty good; some have been great. (Some of the greats don’t actually make this box set, including A Fistful of Dollars, For a Few Dollars More or The Good, the Bad and the Ugly, the films that made him famous). At a very early point in his career, Eastwood decided he was going to make his own films, blasting off with Play Misty for Me. It would introduce several of Eastwood’s trademark themes – men are spectacularly shallow and mostly want women for sex; cops are idiots; when in doubt, take the law into your own hands. From here on, the classic Eastwood action film, whether it was Dirty Harry or Pale Rider or Sudden Impact or Unforgiven would be animated by a simple principle: there are bad people out there and eventually I’m going to kill them. Just don’t rush me.D'Alessandro, Anthony (January 3, 2022). "With Tentpoles Bound To Surge The 2022 Box Office, The Great Theatrical-Streaming Day & Date Experiment Goes Out Like A Dud In 2021".

Eastwood is one of the few directors who got better as he entered his twilight years (he is now 87). In fact, he got a lot better. Most directors are playing out the string by the time they come to the end of the line, but this is not the case for him. Gran Torino, from 2008, was timely and oddly moving; last year’s Sully was a miracle of economical film-making; 2003’s Mystic River was dark and gripping; American Sniper, from 2015, was harsh and disturbing; and 2009’s Invictus was inspiring. Hereafter – his 2011 film about psychics in love – was a surprise that came out of nowhere.Kit, Borys (December 17, 2020).
