Clint Eastwood turns 80 on Monday, May 31, and Turner Classic Movies is marking the occasion and honoring the iconic actor and director by throwing a 24-hour Eastwood movie marathon.
The lineup includes favorites from throughout the Eastwood’s career in the ’60s and ’70s — these are classics, remember, so we suppose they’ve got to be old. You get your spaghetti westerns (including “A Fistful of Dollars” and “The Good, the Bad and the Ugly”), a few war flicks (“Kelly’s Heroes,” “Where Eagles Dare”) and, of course, a pair of Dirty Harry pictures (“Dirty Harry,” “Magnum Force”).
The other reason to tune in or set your DVR is to catch “The Eastwood Factor,” a new documentary on Clint that is narrated by actor Morgan Freeman (pictured above with Eastwood) and directed by film critic Richard Schickel.
