CityLights interview with Clint Eastwood part 2

From: National Screen Institute - Canada (NSI) http://www.nsi-canada.ca

In part two of this 1974 CityLights interview, Brian Linehan talks to actor/director Clint Eastwood about his relationship with Universal; not being allowed onto the Paramount lot when he was filming 'Paint Your Wagon;' and being appointed by President Nixon to the National Council of the Arts through the Motion Picture Industry.

Is there a Part 3? This one feels interrupted, like there was more conversation.

@TheCatgirl6 - there are only two parts to the interview. Sorry - no more Clint :)

Linehan was famous for asking questions that didn't fit the standard template. And especially for doing mountains of research before those interviews. I'd take a minute of a Linehan interview over a thousand of those processed, publicist-managed piece-of-crap junket clips or late-night talk show appearances that yield the same stupid answers over and over again.

@TheCatgirl6 obviously the interviewer made a mistake.

Look how pissed he gets when someone drops that thing at 2:01

Thanks for posting these interviews for people outside Canada who would otherwise never have seen them- cool to see icons like Clint & Ian McKellen so much younger, too.

I like this interview, very informative...better than the short clips we get these days, only actor's studio and charlie rose are left and even they don't match this quality.

[TheCatgirl6]

He looks soooo great here. Wish I could find more clips of Clint interviews from this era. But speaking of, this is 1974, yes? Clint would have been about 43, 44 years old here--how could he have been in show business "nearly 25 years" as Linehan notes in his intro? Clint got into show business in his mid-20s, did he not?

@nsicanada I was afraid you'd say that... oh, well...
