Our examination of Eastwood's career end fittingly with a film that (at the time) signaled the end of his acting career. 2000 onward feels like the time where Clint Eastwood the actor took a backseat while Clint Eastwood the director stepped into the forefront, thematically that isn't more evident than it is with 2008's Gran Torino, a scaled down personal drama about an old man who finds a new calling in life. When you talk about Eastwood's directorial work this is often an example that gets cited, what is it about this film that brings Eastwood's acting career to a (then) close? We're here to talk about it.
