When you think about it, Eastwood the actor and Eastwood the director are the same person but two different careers.

As an actor, Eastwood built his reputation playing macho tough guys. Of course, he evolved throughout his career. But its those roles that are the most iconic ones. As a director he started out tackling genre pictures. But eventually he moved on to more ambitious material. (Side note: Even his genre pictures often offered more depth than the run of the mill competition. His High Plains Drifter is definitely among the top 10 greatest westerns ever.)

Essential Eastwood Director's Collection is a 4-DVD set that contains 4 of his greatest dramatic films: 1992's Unforgiven, 2003's Mystic River, 2004's Million Dollar Baby and 2006's Letters From Iwo Jima.

All 4 movies are excellent. Unforgiven, while tough to watch at times, definitely deserved all the accolades it received. No offense to LOTR: Return Of The King. But Mystic River was THE film of 2003. Million Dollar Baby is definitely a modern classic and one of the few films that has legitimately moved me to tears (Precious is another]. Letters From Iwo Jima is an excellent companion to Flags Of Our Fathers and the stronger movie overall.

The only real gripe about the DVDs is the lack of special features on them. Unforgiven and Mystic River both feature audio commentaries. But for the most part the set is fairly bare-bones. But since the primary reason most people will have for purchasing it is for the movies theselves that's not a serious demerit.

Seeing as this is only $9.99 on Amazon and I bought my copy for the same price elsewhere, the odds are good you can find this cheap. So I definitely recommend doing so. You can't get a better bargain than four great movies for $10.59. My hat goes off to Mr. Eastwood, a true auteur. Just don't talk to anymore furniture at political conventions eh.
