Well ignore the reviews if you can! Especially the idiots banging on about poor lighting and makeup. I found it to be an utterly, compelling, personal biopic but one that was always going to be scrutinised for its nature.

.As one reviewer put it ...''it's not a documentary, it's not a history lesson and it's probably not an accurate biography'' - the point being: it's not trying to be.

It's simply another masterful piece of work from Eastwood. Great perfermances. period.
