The Bridges of Madison County, 30 years Next Month
I was looking through a major pile of clippings and cuttings this week, and discovered this nice little piece which I thought I’d reproduce here on the Archive, just as the 30th Anniversary of its U.S. release is coming up next month. I have to say I think there is so much to be admired about Clint’s movie in which he co-starred with Meryl Streep. I really don’t understand why the film isn’t mentioned more? Perhaps fans just had a problem with Clint as a leading romantic role, but I really think both Eastwood and Streep really made this an absorbing and touching movie. So, if stuck for something to watch one wet weekend, here’s a suggestion and a timely reminder – pull this one off the shelf, dust it off and give it another go with fresh eyes. Personally, I never get tired of this minor masterpiece.
I’m not sure what Magazine this article appeared in, there is a Magazine called Nikon Owner, and I know that one particular issue had a cover featuring Clint in The Bridges of Madison County. However, I can’t be sure if this is the same issue.
