The Eastwood Factor Documentary (2010)
Documentary narrated by Morgan Freeman with Clint Eastwood commenting on his
film career as an actor, a director and a song writer. “..The picture of
Eastwood that you'll take away from Factor is one of an actor who made the most
of some lucky breaks by taking control of his career and exhibiting shrewd
judgment. Freeman's comments are mostly favorable—and justified, since
Freeman not only won an Oscar under Eastwood's direction in Million Dollar
Baby, but brought Eastwood into Invictus. The craftsmanship shown in the clips
backs up the praise.” DVD Verdict

Webb Peoples, Paul Haggis, and John Lee Hancock, editor Joel Cox, and actors
Kevin Bacon, Kevin Costner, Judi Dench, Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman, Marcia Gay
Harden, Hal Holbrook, Tommy Lee Jones, Tim Robbins, Meryl Streep, and Hilary
Swank…by the time the hour is over, Eastwood Directs has revealed itself as
more than a puff piece, weaving together some insight on an intriguingly complex
and unique filmmaker.” DVD Talk
