Warner Home Video will be releasing an ultimate 35-film Clint Eastwood retrospective touted as the largest* ever DVD box set featuring a single artist.

Clint Eastwood: 35 Films, 35 Years at Warner Bros. will feature 19-discs containing 34 Warner Bros films that the star either headlined and/or directed. The 35th “film” included is Eastwood Factor, a feature documentary film by critic/historian Richard Schickel. The box set also includes a 24-page extract of Schickel’s upcoming book Clint: A Retrospective. The collection contains Eastwood films from 1968’s Where Eagles Dare through last year’s Gran Torino.

The set will be released on February 16th 2010, in an effort to take advantage of likely Oscar attention of Eastwood’s latest movie Invictus. The set will have a suggested retail price of $179.98, but expect discount retailers to sell it for much less. No word on if the set will also be made available in Blu-ray, although since it isn’t mentioned in the announcement, we don’t think so.

* The claim might be true, but the collection isn’t even close to being the biggest box set ever released. We previously profiled a massive 110-disc dvd set in Cool Stuff.

    Nice, but Feb. release date sucks. Would have been perfect as a Christmas present for some lucky filmgeek.
  • 179? no thanks id pay 90-115 max, i love the book but i think its going to bring up the exact same problems as the shield and sopranos book had.. massive scratches, cardboard being fused onto the disc etc.

    i really really want this set but 179 is so goddamn ridiculous.. almost as ridiculous as the sopranos price price tag

    This would be a great b-day present for me in Feb, but that $179.00 tag price is a bit too much. Especially when I have most of these films already...if these are just the standard DVDs then what is the point really?
  • Well... they'd play perfectly on a DVD player, at least. IMAGINE the Blu-ray price tag?? *shudders*

    My mom loves him, so this will be a great present for her next year.
