These 20 photos of young Clint Eastwood will make you say Yowza!

There are three types of a cool movie star: those who try to be cool, the effortlessly cool movie stars, and then there is Clint Eastwood.

Clint Eastwood is a synonym for the word cool if the word cool was a person it would look like Clint Eastwood.  Even though Dirty Hairy is now 84 years old and a father of seven grown children, in his youth he looked like a Greek god and he justifies the term: as cool as it gets.
