Clint Eastwood. This name is sufficient as a guarantee for a cinematographic experience at a high level. Being a living legend, he plays for a first time since “Trouble with the Curve” in 2010. Additionally, this is Clint Eastwood’s first starring role in a film, directed and produced by himself, since the “Gran Torino” project which was released ten years ago. “The Mule” is based on an usual but true story. It follows a particular period of time from the life of the almost 90-year-old WWII veteran Leo Sharp. Due to his terrible financial situation, Sharp is forced to become a drug dealer and courier for the Sinaloa Cartel. The main character, based on the personality of Leo Sharp and played by Eastwood, is named Earl Stone in the film.
