An airline pilot defending himself before the FAA - the founder of the FBI struggling with his sexuality - a political prisoner who endured 27 years of imprisonment in South Africa - Eastwood presents them all with honesty.

From Westerns to love stories to crime dramas, these are movies that give audiences the unique pleasure of seeing Eastwood excel as a storyteller, producer and actor. No one has done it better.
