ScreenCrave: Clint Eastwood may have defined machismo for the Peace and Love generation through his portrayal of “Dirty” Harry Callahan, but today’s film-goers are more likely to think of him as the director of sensitive, nuanced dramas. With the release of his latest effort, Hereafter, we thought we’d take a look at some other actors who successfully swapped one identity in front of the camera for a new one behind it, as well as others who met failure trying.
Ben Stiller is definitely my favorite on the list. He movies are still funny as hell and his style is seriously unique.
