Gran Torino
Risky business but I’d recommend you rent (or check out from the library like I did) Gran Torino.
Be forwarned. The favorite word in this R-rated movie begins with “F.” I almost quit watching because of the bombardment of this plus for the first 10-15 minutes or so, it seemed like Clint Eastwood was just going to be a grumpy old man. The only other thing to do was figure out how many different names he could use to show his dislike of Asians.
I stuck it out and am glad I did. I won’t give anything away but I thought it was a pretty good movie. Eastwood directed, produced and stars but he didn’t write it.
But when it’s over it’s not the language that will stick with you.
