Clinton "Clint" Eastwood Jr. (born May 31, 1930) is an American film actor, director, producer, composer, and former politician. Following his breakthrough role on the TV series "Rawhide" (1959–65), Eastwood starred as the Man with No Name in Sergio Leone's Dollars Trilogy of spaghetti westerns ("A Fistful of Dollars," "For a Few Dollars More," and "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly") in the 1960s, and as San Francisco Police Department Inspector Harry Callahan in the Dirty Harry films ("Dirty Harry," "Magnum Force," "The Enforcer," "Sudden Impact," and "The Dead Pool") during the 1970s and 1980s. These roles, along with several others in which he plays tough-talking no-nonsense police officers, have made him an enduring cultural icon of masculinity. Eastwood won Academy Awards for Best Director and Producer of the Best Picture, as well as receiving nominations for Best Actor, for his work in the films "Unforgiven" (1992) and "Million Dollar Baby" (2004). These films in particular, as well as others including "Play Misty for Me" (1971), "The Outlaw Josey Wales" (1976), "Pale Rider" (1985), "In the Line of Fire" (1993), "The Bridges of Madison County" (1995), and "Gran Torino" (2008), have all received commercial success and/or critical acclaim. Eastwood's only comedies have been "Every Which Way but Loose" (1978) and its sequel "Any Which Way You Can" (1980); despite being widely panned by critics they are the two highest-grossing films of his career after adjusting for inflation. Eastwood has directed most of his own star vehicles, but he has also directed films in which he did not appear such as "Mystic River" (2003) and "Letters from Iwo Jima" (2006), for which he received Academy Award nominations and "Changeling" (2008), which received Golden Globe Award nominations. He has received considerable critical praise in France in particular, including for several of his films which were panned in the United States, and was awarded two of France's highest honors: in 1994 he received the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres medal and in 2007 was awarded the Légion d'honneur medal. In 2000 he was awarded the Italian Venice Film Festival Golden Lion for lifetime achievement. Since 1967 Eastwood has run his own production company, Malpaso, which has produced the vast majority of his films. He also served as the nonpartisan mayor of Carmel-by-the-Sea, California, from 1986 to 1988. Eastwood has seven children by five women, although he has only married twice. An audiophile, Eastwood is also associated with jazz and has composed and performed pieces in several films along with his eldest son, Kyle Eastwood.

Woody’s Father
for Woody’s Father in Sheriff Woody
Suggested by autobotsonicfan2007

In the Gilded Age of America, there was a man named Woodrow Pride, but everyone called him Woody. Woody came all the way from New York to look for a paying job in California, where it landed him in the not-so-lucky Luckey Valley, where the only job available was being their new sheriff. Woody's met some friends in Luckey Valley like Jessie, a singer at a local saloon, Stinky Pete, a prospector looking for gold in California, and Bonnie "Bo" Peepers, a shepherdess whom he saved her flock from rustlers. But what Woody didn't know is that he was living in the regular spot for a criminal known as One-Eyed Bart, the cruelest criminal in the West. Woody stood up to Bart, but he sent Woody up the river, yet the cowboy survived thanks to his friends. Although hope seemed lost for Luckey Valley, the cowboy wouldn't give up on a town he just came to. Woody and his new roundup gang will have to tread through mountains, avoid bears, encounter rattlesnakes, all sorts of danger before he reaches Luckey Valley, and take down One-Eyed Bart once and for all!
