Gran Torino is a classic for sure. I can't believe so many of the H-Wood movie snobs ignored it and it got no award nominations.

It was classic Eastwood, a real dirty harry feel to it. Kind of like a Dirty Harry retirement movie. The ending was great, not what I expected. Also did you know that the white kid that almost got beat up by the black guys is Clint's son in real life?

The other thing I liked is that the Gran Torino (the car) is such an awesome but much over looked auto, much cooler than the same era Mustangs in my opinion.

I will definitely own this movie!
