Clint Eastwood quits acting
December 11th, 2009 - 1:41 pm ICT by IANSLondon, Dec 11 (IANS) Veteran actor-filmmaker Clint Eastwood has quit acting and says he’ll come out of retirement only if a script comes along that he can’t turn down.
Eastwood, who directed Oscar winning movies like “Million Doallar Baby” and “Unforgiven”, now wants to spend the rest of his days behind the camera, reported femalefirst.co.uk
“I’m done … (but) you never know where a good story comes from, but I’m a senior here (and) you get to a certain stage and you think, ‘Why not just stand behind the camera?’,” he said.
Eastwood emerged as an anti-hero in 1960s by featuring in violent action films like “The Dollars Trilogy”.
