Hot Nerd Crush: Clint Eastwood and Patricia Clarkson

Damn Clint! Save some of that Beefcake for the rest of us!
You know what? It feels good to get back to listing actual people for the Hot Nerd Crush again. And, today, we’re going to look at a couple of more mature actors. Mostly cause they’re still really hot. Besides that, they both have distinguished acting careers. And, they’ve actually appeared together in the same movie. More on that later, however. Let’s take a look at the combined hotness of Clint Eastwood and Patricia Clarkson after the jump!
Clint Eastwood, I’m proud to say, is one of my idols. First off, he built an entire career on being a hardass. After he got done being a hardass, he decided to show people that where his real talent was. He’s a brilliant director that is as home directing small features as he is directing huge action scenes. When you think of an archetypical cowboy, who do you think of? Okay, besides John Wayne. That’s right, Clint Fuckin’ Eastwood, that’s who! From an uncountable number of spaghetti westerns directed by Sergio Leone, people thought they had an idea who Clint Eastwood was. Turns out, along with the hardass cowboy in him, there was also a hardass cop in there too! And his name is “Dirty” Harry Callahan! After five Dirty Harry movies (No shit…there’s five of them!), he moved on to play roughneck bareknuckle fighter Philo Beddoe in Every Which Way But Loose and Any Which Way You Can. Ah, as Kevin Smith pointed out, the concept of a man and his monkey never gets old. After that, we got to take a look at Eastwood’s hardass Marine character Gunnery Sgt Thomas Hiway in Heartbreak Ridge. Okay, it’s not that great a movie, but when you get done seeing it, you will come away thinking that Clint Eastwood plays the best Marine in HISTORY! He starred in and directed Unforgiven, an antiviolence western that somehow ends up being violent as hell! To me, though, his best recent accomplishment was his part in directing and starring in Gran Torino, an absolutely amazing film. I won’t even start to describe it. Just go see it, trust me, and you’ll see how an 80 year old man ended up as this week’s Hot Nerd Crush!
Back off, the rest of you! She's waving at me and me ONLY!!!
Patricia Clarkson. I don’t even have to say anything else. Just Patricia Clarkson. If you want to see what I’m talking about watch the SNL Digital Short Motherlover. Beyond that, however, she’s just a hot looking lady, and one hell of an actress. As for that film I mentioned that she was in with Clint Eastwood? Oh, that’d be the last Dirty Harry movie, The Dead Pool. (And, might I say, one hell of a step up from normal Clint Eastwood muse Sondra Locke. Not being mean…I’m just saying.) It just seems anymore, that if you need a hot older lady in your movie, the go to’s have changed. It used to be Susan Sarandon or Goldie Hawn. Now, we go with Patricia Clarkson, and you know…I can handle that. I thought she brought some much needed pathos and a feminine touch to The Green Mile. It’s that hair, that body, and that smoky voice. There’s just something about her that screams sex! Or rather, SEX!!! Anways, she’s my pick for Hot Nerd Crush this week, and I stand by it. She can get mad and leave if she wants, but that means I get to watch her walk away. Rowr. Hee hee.
