The Movie of the Week: Gran Torino

March 30th, 2009 — 11:15am

I had always remembered Clint Eastwood as a cowboy when I was spending my childhood afternoons with my father watching Clint's movies. I have to say, I don't like cowboys films at all, but it was a very good waste of time with my father.

So, as I said before, I had always remembered Clint as a cowboy and a macho man, until I saw Million Dollar Baby. A great film, without doubt, and when we thought he could not do it better…. Ta-dah! He made Gran Torino. 

Without wishing to spoil you the movie (you can see the plot summary here), I can only say, it is wonderfully emotive, and I went out of the cinema crying of seeing again a masterpiece of the great Clint Eastwood. So he is proving he does it better and better. Can't wait to watch his next movie "The Human Factor". We'll see. 

You can't miss this film, Gran Torino.
