Eastwood's Family 'Ties'

It looked like a Mystic River reunion Tuesday night in L.A. as Clint Eastwood strolled down the red carpet alongside Kevin Bacon and Marcia Gay Harden for the preem of "Rails & Ties", which marks his daughter Alison Eastwood's directorial debut. "Being at a premiere and going to the film festivals is icing on the cake, but at the end of the day, I always look back at the cake," Alison Eastwood explained.

Bacon has worked with both Clint and Alison and said of the two, "I'd say the biggest difference between Clint and his daughter is simply the female point of view," he says.  "Whether it's communicating to actors or trying to convey a particular message to the world."

When asked whether or not Dirty Harry gave her any fatherly advice, Eastwood laughed. "Yeah. He just said to surround yourself with good people and set yourself up for success. Not very Dirty Harry but still wise." (S. Oldham)

I've written a comedic script that features a male lead perfect for Clint. What a dream if Alison would direct. Any way to get the script to the Eastwood's?
