ACTING BACKGROUND AND THE FORMATION OF THE MALPASO PRODUCTION COMPANY

During his time on Rawhide, Eastwood developed an interest in directing having taken the opportunity to learn his craft from an extensive squad of directors, such as Jack Arnold and Ted Post as well as being lined up to direct an episode, but Eastwood was knocked back after another actor directed a rival programme and failed to attract audience numbers. After the filming of the 3 iconic Spaghetti Westerns, Eastwood formed the Malpaso Production Company in 1968, which has helped him to fulfill his drive to overshadow every creative aspect of his films, which he has been involved with. This control ranged from selecting and developing material that companies overlooked to the approval of cast and crew.
