Million Dollar Baby premiered in New York City on 5 December 2004, before wider release 10 days later.

It took more 4 years for Paul Haggis to sell his script (based on one of the short stories in Rope Burns: Stories from the Corner by F.X. Toole), and then it languished, even when Clint Eastwood agreed to direct. Eastwood's longtime studio, Warner Bros., refused to put up the $30 million production budget and Eastwood was left to raise the money himself (WB ultimately agreed to put up half after Eastwood had raised the initial $15 million).

Hilary Swank trained with former Mr. World Canada Grant Roberts for the role, gaining nearly 20 pounds of muscle (Roberts has a cameo in the film as the corner-man for Billie the Blue Bear, played by world champion boxer Lucia Rijker).

Million Dollar Baby was a commercial and critical success. It received 7 Academy Award nominations, including Best Actor (Eastwood), Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Film Editing (Joel Cox). It received the Oscars for Best Picture, Best Director (the 74-year-old Eastwood), Best Supporting Actor (Morgan Freeman), and Hilary Swank for Best Actress.

Unforgiven premiered on 3 August 1992 before wider release 4 days later.

David Peoples had started work on the screenplay in the mid-1970s and got a copy of it to Clint Eastwood "early 80s.” Eastwood sat on the script for almost a decade before taking on the project at age 61.

Produced on a budget of a little more than $14 million, Unforgiven went on to earn almost $160 million at the box office and was nominated for 9 Academy Awards, including Best Actor, Best Original Screenplay, Best Art Direction, Best Cinematography (Jack Green), and Best Sound.

Unforgiven received 4 Oscars: Best Picture, Best Director, Best Supporting Actor (Gene Hackman), and Best Editing (Joel Cox). It was only the 3rd Western to be named Best Picture, after Cimarron (1931) and Dances with Wolves (1990).
