What happened is I was going to college in 1950. L. A. City College. A guy I knew was going to an acting class on Thursday nights. He started telling me about all the good-lookin' chicks and said, "Why don't you go with me?" So I probably had some motivation beyond thoughts of being an actor. And sure enough, he was right. There were a lot of girls and not many guys. I said, "Yeah, they need me here." I wound up at Universal as a contract player.
Clint EastwoodThe only reason I ever thought about retiring from the front part of the camera as opposed to the back is sometimes you think, "How many roles are there for someone my age?"
Clint EastwoodWhen anybody gives you an award, it could be wrong. Youโve just got to bear that it mind and go ahead and enjoy it. Like Morgan says, itโs a pat on the back, so great youโll take it and then move on.
