Book Review: Clint Eastwood Icon: The Essential Film Art Collection

November 28, 2009 by Parka

The author David Frangioni is a passionate collector of all things Clint Eastwood. He has amassed an amazing collection of posters and memorabilia, dating way back to the 1964's A Fistful of Dollars to the 2008's Gran Torino. They are all in this book, properly labeled and arranged chronologically. There are not only English posters, but also in Japanese, Spanish and other languages. Thomas Schatz writes the biography.

This is an oversized art book and the posters are printed large — closeups feature almost life-size heads. Movies are made in a time where posters are still painted traditionally. There are many of those in this book. If you're a Clint Eastwood fan, you'll probably be transported back in time.

This is a great book for all fans of Clint Eastwood.

If you buy from any links on the blog, I get a little commission that helps me get more art books to feature.
