A “composition” of statements and discussions that Clint Eastwood had with journalists in recent years was the “interview” published in the Austrian newspaper Kurier and caused a sensation, on the one hand because of the “nostalgia” of the creator for “Old Hollywood” and her “good Hollywood”.

The newspaper published last week an alleged interview given by the actor and director in which he was “remake of remakes and franks” films and urged their colleagues to “sit at home” if they have nothing to say.

Today, 95 -year -old Eastwood denied the fake interview, which had become a central issue in many US media over the weekend and commented in a variety of ways on social media websites.

On its website, the newspaper tried to explain: The independent journalist who wrote the text has been covering Hollywood news for decades. For her article she gathered excerpts from discussions by Clint Eastwood with various journalists at 18 “round tables” in recent years.

However, the article was published as an interview and not as a “portrait” of the creator.

“Although no referral is invented, interviews (Eastwood in other media) are recorded and we can reject the category of falsification“, Kurier ceases any partnership with Elizabeth Sereda, explaining that it is important” to have transparency and to adhere to the strict journalistic rules “.

Prior to Eastwood’s “interview”, the newspaper had recently published other interviews by Sereda from Leonardo Dikaprio and Ariana Grande.
