Unsurprisingly, lots of families on TV are dysfunctional. If you've got a sitcom, then a dysfunctional family can be a reliable source of humor (see The Simpsons for one of the best examples), while if a show’s a drama, then such dysfunction can be taken more seriously, and drive conflict. It's been the case for traditional television for decades, and even on HBO – which can't often be called "traditional" – families get pretty dysfunctional.

Given Clint Eastwood has been around for a while (he celebrated his 95th birthday in 2025), it’s not too surprising that he’s directed his fair share of historical movies about real-life people. Of his 40 feature films, in fact, a quarter of them can be called biopics, being either mostly or entirely about true-to-life stories (not counting something like Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, which is more inspired by real-life events).

Undoubtedly, some sci-fi movies keep things pretty simple, and are all the better off for it. At least the first Star Wars is, for example (if you want to count it as science fiction), as are most giant monster movies, and the same can be said for classics like Predator, Alien, and Jurassic Park. Simplicity isn't bad (and some of those films have more complex themes), but not all sci-fi films go for that kind of thing.

There are almost too many good martial arts movies to choose from, going back decades and from all over the world, too. You’ve got Enter the Dragon, The 36th Chamber of Shaolin, Police Story, and even a recent Best Picture winner, Everything Everywhere All at Once, which is more than just a martial arts movie, sure, but can still be classified as one regardless.

Al Pacino has obviously been in too many good movies to count, which can make picking out some of his best feel like a daunting task. But there are always alternatives. One could turn to Letterboxd, which has average scores for movies based on all the ratings users on the site have given, and select an assortment of great Pacino films that way. It’s a way to not be held accountable for omissions, which is nice.

Spoiler Alert: This list contains spoilers for all eight seasons of 'Game of Thrones'.Family is a big thing on Game of Thrones, given so much of the show’s conflict revolves around the various houses/noble families of Westeros fighting each other for control of the Iron Throne. There are also threats from elsewhere, including re-emerged dragons and White Walkers, but family doesn’t necessarily have as much of an impact on that side of the show. The Westeros conflict, though?

While Clint Eastwood is best known for his starring roles in Westerns, at least initially (see The Good, the Bad and the Ugly), and also quite well known for directing Westerns (see Unforgiven), he’s done far more than just films in that genre. Going through the 40 films he’s directed, you find movies of all different sorts, including a romance film (The Bridges of Madison County), plenty of biopics, and even something of an adventure movie (The Eiger Sanction).
