Clint Eastwood Films on TV and Upcoming TV Interviews

[Perry]

TCM has really gone downhill. Most of the movies on there now aren't even 'Classics'. They recently had a full day of dopey Frankie Avalon beach movies.  If they had any brain cells they would consider showing other aspects to Eastwood's film career such as  'Bird', 'Breezy' or 'Letters From Iwo Jima' for starters.. Even White Hunter Black Heart would be welcome instead of the same familiar turf.

Eastwood will appear on the Tonight show tomorrow, September 6, to promote Sully. Other promotional appearances by Hanks, Sullenberger and Aaron Eckhart on upcoming talk shows are given in Dan Dassow's post here:

Great, thanks for the heads up. I'll record it.

I can't believe I wrote "Aaron Hicks"!

I guess it was because I was posting during a Yankee game. Even so, Hicks is injured. You'd think I'd have written "Aaron Judge"!

We had a thread about this back in the day (2010) ... http://www.clinteastwood.org/forums/index.php?topic=8485.0

As mentioned there, the interview segments are no longer available through the original BBC links, so it's nice to see that the BBC has brought them back via the links Higashimori gives above. Only for 28 more days, though!

For those who can get Channel 5 out of DC (Fox5), Clint is suppose to be interviewed tomorrow (Dec 11th) during their morning news programs.  It didn't say what time and Fox 5 airs their morning new programs from 4:30am-10am.  I'm just going to DVR all of them and then do a lot of fast-forwarding to the interview.

Clint is seen briefly in this French trailer for the Bruce Weber docu on Robert Mitchum, Nice Girls Don't Stay for Breakfast.

In its review of the film (which screened at the Venice festival last year), the Hollywood Reporter said:

The celebrity interviews yield the least interesting tidbits. ... [Liam] Neeson and Clint Eastwood barely say anything of note.

The First Traveling Saleslady was on Turner Classic Movies the other day. I'd meant to post but didn't get a chance to do so before the movie was on. I believe at least a few around here have seen it. I haven't so I recorded it so I could check it out sometime.

[Perry]

I watched that the other day. I don't know whats more upsetting seeing a 25 year old Eastwood playing a silly role or seeing a great actress like Ginger Rogers by then doing a schlock movie like that in 1956... Ginger was still smoking looking in that movie...

Clint is scheduled to appear on the Ellen Degeneres show on Monday Dec 9th.  Also, Hauser is supposed to be on Jimmy Kimmel on Thursday and Hamm is supposed to be on The Tonight Show on Wednesday.

If you haven't seen it yet, "Richard Jewell" is now on HBO.

          Caught Eastwood on an episode of Highway Patrol on ME TV, the great tv series with Broderick Crawford a few days ago. The episode was called 'Motorcycle A' where Eastwood plays one of two motorcycle guys where some cafe owner hates  motorcyclists- then some accidental death of a Highway Patrol officer happens. This might be Eastwood's first tv showing on film since the show was the first Season in 1955 which would make Eastwood 25..65 years ago!!!... hah...... Obviously the show is dated in many ways, but I liked it...Eastwood looked like a 6'4 James Dean......You can actually see the episodes of this show on ME TV and that episode on Youtube...

Nice, Perry! A slight quibble: actually, Eastwood's first appearance on TV was on a Steve Allen special, [Steve] Allen in Movieland (July 2, 1955). The Highway Patrol episode, "Motorcycle A," aired on April 2, 1956.

You can watch the Steve Allen special on Vimeo (here the date is given as 1954):



The scene that includes Clint starts at 54:45.

   Wow...... When TV was actually good.....

Clint had a very short phone interview, which mostly focused on his use of actual footage during the Monterey Jazz festival during the making of "Play Misty for Me," which was filmed in the Carmel/Monterey area. At the end of the interview, he was asked about what was next, and he said something like, "Everything is quiet now. There are a couple of projects I'm fooling with, but not that I'm ready to go with." This is paraphrased.

It doesn't sound like he's looking to retire. It sounded to me like he was waiting for things to return to a place of normalcy with COVID before he would start production on anything.
