Post Eastwood To Recieve DGA Top Honor

Clint Eastwood will be honored by the Directors Guild of America with their top award; the Lifetime Achievement Award. The award is in recognition of Eastwood's illustrious career behind the camera. He will recieve the prize at the 58th annual DGA Awards on January 28th, 2006 in Los Angeles.

"As one of the most prolific, versatile directors in the history of the medium, there isn't a genre that Clint Eastwood hasn't mastered in the more than 25 films he has directed over the past 35 years," DGA president Michael Apted said. "His ongoing body of work continues to touch generations of moviegoers and bring huge audiences into movie theaters. He does it all with great class, intelligence, and style."

No, I was wrong. It was the PGA giving him the Honorary Award.

PGA and DGA honorary awards in the same year and that just after he was won for M&B? Isn't that a bit too much love for Eastwood or do they expect him to die later this month?

It's nice to see Clint getting another award. He just doesn't get enough attention and recognition.
