“There’s
a rebel lying deep in my soul.”
~ Clint
Eastwood
~ Born May 31, 1930
Ruggedly
handsome and immensely talented, Clint Eastwood – actor, director, producer,
composer, businessman and politician – is an American icon, born May 31, 1930.
After
achieving success in the Western TV series “Rawhide” (1959-1965), Eastwood rose
to international fame with his role as the Man with No Name in Italian
filmmaker Sergio Leone’s “Dollars Trilogy” of spaghetti Westerns during the
1960s and as antihero cop Harry Callahan in the five “Dirty Harry” films
throughout the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, among others, have made Eastwood
an enduring cultural icon of masculinity.
Eastwood
has starred in such films as “The Beguiled” (1971), “Play Misty for Me” (1971),
“Every Which Way But Loose” (1978), and “The Bridges Of Madison County” (1995),
and directed films including “American Sniper” (2014).
Clint
Eastwood strikes a pose in this image, likely from the late 1960s or early
1970s, in which his eyes seem to be a window to his quote, “There’s a rebel
lying deep in my soul.” It’s Clint being just Clint … and he indeed gives this
girl the vapors!
