Clint Eastwood in 'Cry Macho'
The Big Picture Over thirty years ago, Clint Eastwood starred in and directed his swan song, Unforgiven. The Best Picture winner was the Western to end all Westerns, a revisionist take on the genre that presented Eastwood at his most savage. The film's widespread acclaim was positioned as a tribute to an exceptional career in Hollywood, but then Eastwood continued to keep making movies steadily for 30 years. Eastwood, now 94 years old, is supposedly working on his final film, Juror No.
Cry Macho, met with mixed reviews upon release, was a project stuck in development hell for 30 years. The film was conceived in the 1970s by N. Richard Nash, who turned the script into a novel to increase its chances of publication. There was little progress in adapting the book into a feature film until Albert S. Ruddy, the late producer of The Godfather and subject of the Paramount+ series, The Offer, bought the rights to the book. Ruddy spent decades getting Cry Macho off the ground.
Eastwood belongs to a rare club of actors and filmmakers who are granted a lifetime blank check from a respective studio, Warner Bros in his case. With little studio interference, Eastwood, thanks to his habit of staying under budget and producing profitable films, has earned creative autonomy. "I always thought I’d go back and look at that," Eastwood told Kenneth Turan of the LA Times, referring to Cry Macho. "It was something I had to grow into.
