I haven't seen all the films he's directed after that but Mystic River was the last and despite some great performances I found somewhat underwhelming since then I haven't felt that fussed with any of his films, Million Dollar Baby just doesn't appeal and anything subsequently just didn't peak my interest.

From what I've heard Leo acts his socks off but isn't given much a script and Eastwood is clearly the wrong man for this kind of film, it seems the likes of Stone or DiCaprio's usual director Marty S would have been the ticket but to me Eastwood just isn't that great a film maker and Unforgiven seems somewhat of a rather incredible fluke, if not what happened to the man that made it?

J Edgar Hoover as always seemed a real gem of figure to have a film made about but from what has been said, this is not that interesting or compelling take on that man.

I think you have lost your mind there, Pal :lol:
