Impressive and nostalgic collection,
By
This review is from: Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Ultimate Film Art Collection (Hardcover)
The author David Frangioni is a passionate collector of all things Clint Eastwood. He has amassed an amazing collection of posters and memorabilia, dating way back to the 1964's A Fistful of Dollars to the 2008's Gran Torino. They are all in this book, properly labeled and arranged chronologically. There are not only English posters, but also in Japanese, Spanish and other languages. Thomas Schatz writes the biography. This is an oversized art book and the posters are printed large -- closeups feature almost life-size heads. Movies are made in a time where posters are still painted traditionally. There are many of those in this book. If you're a Clint Eastwood fan, you'll probably be transported back in time. This is a great book for all fans of Clint Eastwood. (There are more pictures of the book on my blog. Just visit my Amazon profile for the link.)

A Handsome and Classic Book,
By Nerd - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Ultimate Film Art Collection (Hardcover)
This beautiful printed tome gathers posters, promotional art, and advertising from around the globe, chronologically organized and covering every production of Clint Eastwood's iconic career. I honestly could not believe the detail and scope of this book when I bought it as a gift for a friend and avid Clint Eastwood fan. It prompted me to get my own :)There have been many biographies of Eastwood but this is the first book I've seen that literally illustrates his entire career. Each chapter, organized by decade, is accompanied by essays from Tom Schatz--the head of the U. Texas Film Dept., Austin, who apparently teaches an annual 'Clint Eastwood' course. If you're looking for a great gift for the movie buff in your family, a great film book for your library, or just a really good looking and interesting book for the holidays this is it! (I also can't wait to see Invictus!) 7 of 7 people found the following review helpful

Awesome book - Eastwood is an Icon,

This review is from: Clint Eastwood: Icon: The Ultimate Film Art Collection (Hardcover)
Wow! This is an incredible collection of art for Clint Eastwood's movies, packed into an oversized book of outstanding quality. Crystal clear images of some of Eastwood's greatest films. There is a beautiful collection and if you are an Eastwood fan, do not miss this. As you may see from my other reviews, these are the types of books that I go crazy over. I hope they continue to be published. Truly a poster fanatic's dream. I do not know where else you could find this much quality in one place, much less one book at less than $30, a fantastic bargain. You will hate yourself if you miss this book.
