The Good Shepherd (REVIEW): De Niro Delivers on Telling of CIA Beginnings

Could Robert De Niro be the next Clint Eastwood? Both were workhorse
actors for most of their careers, but Eastwood later in life stepped
behind the camera and became known more as a prolific director. He has
two films this year in awards contention (“Flags of Our Fathers” and
“Letters from Iwo Jima”) and already has the Oscars to prove it. If
“The Good Shepherd” is any indication, then De Niro might not be too
far behind.
