The 1988 biopic of bebop immortal Charlie Parker, 'Bird,' was the film that opened my eyes to Clint Eastwood's potential as a filmmaker.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Clint Eastwood is an extraordinary director because he knows the value of a buck. He knows where it will show on the screen.
I didn't know what the hell Charlie Parker was playing... I just liked the way he played.
Clint Eastwood has always been a hero.
Next? Growing up to be Clint Eastwood, I hope.
I'm a Clint Eastwood man.
Mike Nichols asked if I would do The Birdcage. Mike and I are dear friends but he had never offered me a feature role in a movie. My television career opened other doors for me.
I thought Clint Eastwood was cool in all the western movies, but I'm not gonna drive somewhere he's at and stand in line to see him. I told Missy, my wife, 'The only person I'd stand in line for is God Almighty. You made the universe? All right, I'll get in line!'
You got to be careful mentioning people as great as Clint Eastwood. You can't put me in the same sentence as that man.
I did a movie with Clint Eastwood and I knew I wasn't going to be able to 'out-man' him.
I would really love to work with Clint Eastwood.
