Has anyone seen what Clint Eastwood looks like lately?

Best wishes Clint.

I kinda thought he'd still look like he did in "Gran Torino", but, alas father time is not to be trifled with.

Clint, thanks for the memories!

You mean he is twins with Bruce Springsteen?...kinda ironic,that.

Wow, I probably shouldn't have looked. He looks more like twins with the Crypt Keeper than with Springsteen!

But then: he's 94 years old... kinda hard to look anything other than pretty damned vintage when you're pushin' 100...

Glad he's still kickin', no matter what else. So many great movies, and the man had personal sensibilities that I could fully respect. I remember when he showed up on TV out of the blue on 9/11, just to tell everybody to hang tough, to stay calm, don't lose it-- we're still in business, here. This ain't the end of nothin'.

He wasn't even all slicked up. He was wearing a wrinkled, plain white shirt, no tie, under a rumpled, brown-colored sport coat that looked a size too big for him. His hair was kind of mussed up, and he sure didn't spend any time in a makeup artist's chair before being filmed.

Later I read that he had that "not ready for prime time" look going because when he learned what had happened in NYC, he simply made himself basically presentable and then sat down and produced that video more or less on the spot. He presented a very plain, somewhat nondescript appearance, but his words packed a comforting punch.

Then he sent the video to somebody in MSM, and I saw it aired on every channel imaginable after that.

He was a great actor, but he wasn't acting as he spoke to the public that day...

I always felt that this was his finest hour.

I don't care if he's old. We all get old. I want him with us ALAP.

Most of us old folks aren't ever confronted personally about our aging looks. If one does they might just get punched in the nose

such an American Icon, hang in there.

When I think of Clint I see this

He was great in "Blood Work" too,and must have been 75 or so at that time.

I'm old...but it's all relative. If you are productive, and intellectually intact, you may have a responsible role to play, wherever you are. Additionally, you probably can utilize all that age to great advantage, for better decision making, with successful outcomes, if you are mentally intact, and you decision making is still sound. Leave yourself open for critical second opinions at all times, so you know where you stand.

But the precipice is narrow. rapid changes on the far end of the odometer are normal, and can happen over a period of months, or even weeks. We are all different. I watched my dad (and mum) go down relatively quickly. It did not have to happen, they did not nourish their brains.
sorry to sound so...but it has been on my mind lately.

Grand Torino was 2009, 16 years ago…

I was almost young 16 years ago, and certainly felt a lot younger then than I do now….i hope I’m still alive and self sufficient at 94. That’s pretty rare.

No comment

He's still got it.

Hopefully it’s something we’ll all get a chance to experience, if we can leave an honest legacy to our kids that we worked hard at and for then we have achieved greatness.

Clint was a man’s man and in many ways he was like John Wayne, people loved him

Trouble with the curve is still one of my favorites

I'll never make 94,.. it would take a stronger man than I. I'm sure Mr. Eastwood is still a force to reckon with,.. physical attributes or not. That man has a strong mental capability. Besides he's a Jazz musician,.. that takes some serious balls.

He’s 95, FFS! I should be so lucky ...

Getting old sucks. My Dad defied age for decades. He looked 15 to 20 years younger than his actual age, starting in his late 60's. At 85, he looked and acted like 65.

He hit 90 and age caught up with him. He aged 20 years in 18 months. At 92, he looked it, shuffled his feet to walk. He died at that age.

He was still sharp as a tack. But his body gave out.

At 94, Clint's doing well. Not many make that age. Hell, only 4 years ago he directed and starred in Cry Macho. As Dave said, I don't care what he looks like, he's one of the few in the Hollywood circle I have respect for. I hope he hangs around for as long as possible. But if he's looking his age, who knows how long that will actually be.

Clint!

Then (on the left at 19)


And three years ago at 61 (I look pretty much the same now at 64):

Coincidentally, I watched For a Few Dollars More last night.
