Clint Eastwood is a legendary Hollywood actor and director, but apparently he’s also a fan of cunnilingus.
During a recent episode of the Outlaw Sh!t podcast, Clifton Collins Jr. reflected on working with Eastwood and recalled an on-set moment when the Dirty Harry star suddenly went completely quiet in the middle of filming.
According to Collins Jr., the crew noticed that Eastwood had stopped moving and turned their attention toward him to figure out what was happening. “We all started looking, and he was like — it’s like he was having a heart attack or something, but he was pretty still,” Collins Jr. began.
Then came the explanation for the sudden stillness. “And he’s like, ‘Sorry guys, sorry. I was, I was just thinking about eating some pussy,'” Collins Jr. recalled, before saying that Eastwood snapped out of his daydream and told everyone: “When you’re ready, go.”
Collins Jr.’s story about Eastwood’s behavior on set comes nearly two years after actor Phil Biedron shared his own amusing experience working with the legendary director on Juror #2.
During an interview with Vulture, Biedron looked back on his time working with Eastwood and explained how the director’s eating habits unexpectedly became part of the filming experience.
“We’re in the courtroom, and we’re doing this dramatic scene,” Biedron said. “And then you hear this light crunch sound. It was actually Clint, who was eating Cheez-Its and making the noise.”
Part of what makes these stories stand out is Eastwood’s reputation for running calm and efficient sets. He often skips the traditional shouted “action” and “cut,” instead favoring the first or second take when filming.
“The objective is to make everything sound like the first time it’s said, so the only thing I can do is try to pick it up the very first time it is said,” he told Film Comment in 2005. “You’d be surprised with good performers how interesting something can be the first time they try it.”
