Clint Eastwood was made a commander in France’s Legion of Honour for his contributions to cinema, reports CBC. French President Nicolas Sarkozy helped celebrate the 79-year-old at an awards ceremony Friday in Paris.
Two years ago, Eastwood was made a knight in the Legion of Honour. He is now at the third level of five for accolades in the Legion.
“I love France, I love movies, and I love the appreciation that the French people have for movies,” Eastwood said.
