Oscar-winning director for Unforgiven and Million Dollar Baby, he is known for being a laid-back director who shoots his movies in few takes.

I did some pictures over in Italy where people were playing football in the background in my eyeline. I thought do you think it would be too much if I go and say, ‘Would you mind not kicking the soccer ball just for a second or two?’ They kind of got it and the director kind of picked up on it and said, ‘That’s a good idea. I don’t know where you’ve been all this time.’” RELATED: Execs Told Burt Reynolds He “Can’t Act” Before Firing Him And Clint Eastwood As an award-winning director, he will not tolerate behind-the-scenes distractions. “They’d do everything to distract you from playing a part,” he explains. “I thought, ‘I’m going to do everything I can do to make these people, the men and women in films, to make them feel like they’re there and they’re part of it.
