I hated it and then I gave it a try

I have never been a big Clint Eastwood fan. Something about him always came off as stiff and unaffected. I respect his career in artistry. He has a loyal fan base that I can now say I am a part of. Gran Torino will reduce the strongest to tears and skeptics to laughter. I loved this film and can honestly say it was one of my faves of the past year. It should be on DVD soon. Please check it out. This film challenges you think outside the box and to put down those rose colored glasses. Ignorance is ignorance regardless of who the target is. Whether it be gay, black, asian, or white, we all bleed the same blood. The sad part is this revelation is often made too late, when blood is shed.
