Clint Eastwood: A Life in Film (2007 Michael Henry Wilson & scr)

Filmed around the time of Flags of Our Fathers and Letters to Iwo-Jima, a project Clint obviously found quite personal - he relates how the battle is little talked about or documented. And to make a film about the Japanese side, in Japanese, took balls.

The interviewer suggests Bridges of Madison County is closest to the actor's real personality; he doesn't disagree, but cites Million Dollar Baby as being more emotional.

Lovely to see Spielberg turn up on set, and they hug.
