That film has appeared to be one of those life-changing ones in the actor’s career. What is more, he could have got into a car accident during the film shooting if it wasn’t for Eastwood. Daniels was driving a car and lost control of the steering when Eastwood reacted very quickly and picked it up so that they could avoid the crash.
