Here we are, folks - the end of Clint Eastwood's filmography to date. We've unlocked all the legendary weapons and retailer-exclusive armor sets and are ready to do battle with the final boss of Pod Casty For Me: writer and podcaster Will Sloan! Will joins us for a relaxed and agreeable discussion of Eastwood's relaxed and agreeable 2021 neo-Western CRY MACHO and some thoughts on the man's long career, his always-evolving relationship to images of masculinity, his love of animals, and his confounding age. A lovely end to the Clint Eastwood project - for now! - and a lot fewer attacks on the personal character of David Zaslav than you'd expect. Plus a teaser of what we're doing next - although you'll have to come back for next week's Clintclusions episode to find out for real.
Give it a listen or we'll make you live at your dad's house!
Topics include: if we've ever disliked Clint the man, final (and almost-final) films, Al Ruddy, the film's decades-long development process, Ian discusses the film's vision of Mexico, machismo, strong dogs, connections to more or less every movie we've ever covered, Will's recent zine, The Journal of Stoogeological Studies, pig triage, and more.
