All the critics around the world have agreed that Eastwood has some how elevated the cinematic essence of the original novel on which the movie is based. The winner of 4 Oscars and 96 other awards, Eastwood has always shown that his talent has never been restricted to the acting capability he has. His directorial efforts have proved to be even richer than his acting exponent. As an actor he has always remained the forerunners of the macho actors of the day. The Bridges of Madison County once again proved that he is a master of both the art. In order to get more information about other romantic movies, have a look at the other pages on Hollywoodzing.com.
