At 80 years old, he is old enough to be in a poster on your dad's (possibly even grandpa's) wall decades back. He has directed and starred in enough movies to fill a home collection. This dude was attending elementary school during the Great Depression, middle school during World War II, and high school when atomic bombs were dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
So what are your favorite movies that have involved Clint Eastwood in some capacity? I think Flags of our Fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima are both ace, along with Gran Torino. I haven't had the chance to check out Changeling or Invictus yet, but I'm ready to change that in the next few weeks.
No, fuck. Guys, the first movie featuring Clint Eastwood in any way that anyone should see is The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly.
Because not only do you get to see the definitive badass of Westerns, but you get to see his predecessor (Lee Van Cleef) and Eli Wallach (who is a badass in his own right)!

the good the bad and the ugly is amazing
unforgiven is incredible
gran turino was the ultimate "I am clint eastwood and I am playing the character I know I should be playing" movie, it was fantastic
Wait, wait, wait, how can you start watching Eastwood films without seeing Fistful of Dollars first? Yes, Good the Bad and the Ugly is the best of the trilogy, but you've got to work your way up to it.
I've been going on a little clint-a-thon lately. I watched Million Dollar Baby on netflix, followed by Dirty Harry, Fistful of Dollars, and For a Few Dollars More. I actually have Good Bad and the Ugly out right now, gonna watch it this week. The Dollars series is actually really good apart from Clint, really good directing and pacing and all that.

goddamn
seriously, man dont scare us like that.
good the bad and the ugly too.
well pretty much everything hes done is good, but those two stand out for me. the man is like one of the only actors I care about
though to be fair I enjoyed John Malkovich a whole lot more
I'm ok with this fact.
you should probably go die in a fire
I'm a girl.
To be honest, I'm only just becoming interested in movies, period (well into my 20s). What's a good first Eastwood movie to see?
Gran Turino
Good, the bad and the ugly
both fine movies
Gran Torino would be a good start.
Eastwood stars and directs.
Yeah, I love seeing that same conflict from both sides.

WESTERNS!
Why haven't I seen Gran Turino yet?!
look at this shit!
but my parents want me to go into their very dark, cold, silent attic up their creaking ladder to search for the christmas decorations
That sounds like the worst idea.
I thought he died too.
Fuck. I was gonna be so sad.

don't worry i got this mop soaked in petrol and a lighter
I mean, morgan freeman as mandela, whatever
but rugby
Paint Your Wagon.
Srsly tho, Any Eastwood is good Eastwood.
Fuck yes. Such an amazingly creepy movie.
Rugby is the medium through which the film delivers a very human message. It's not really about rugby.

You would too, if you were... Clint Eastwood!
i've been biting my nails more than usual recently, and it's because i've watched 3 films in a row this week that are unbearably tense
play misty for me, hurt locker, and the mist
it's bad enough when you're watching it and you expect evelyn/terrorists/monsters to just pop out of the background any second
but now i can't go to bed, i'm too wound up
