Additional Information
For his fourth directorial feature in the span of two years, Clint Eastwood tells the story of a grizzled Korean War vet's reluctant friendship with a Hmong teenage boy and his immigrant family. Set in contemporary Detroit, GRAN TORINO tackles the shifting cultural and economic landscape of not only the Motor City, but America as well. Eastwood stars as Walt Kowalski, an unabashed bigot who never heard a racial insult he didn't love. Bitter, haunted, and full of pride, Walt refuses to abandon the neighbourhood he's lived in for decades despite its changing demographics as he clings desperately to a mindset long since out of step with the times. When his Hmong neighbour Thao tries to steal his prized muscle car as part of a gang initiation, Walt is forced to grapple with the world around him. <BR>GRAN TORINO's approach to the complicated issue of race relations is equal parts Archie Bunker and CRASH. That is to say, there is nothing subtle about Walt's bigotry, yet his misanthropy knows no bounds, and Eastwood does a remarkable job of finding the humour in Walt's equal opportunity racism. More than simply a racial morality tale, however, GRAN TORINO is about the unlikely bonds that people form to navigate the subtle complexities of everyday life. Like MILLION DOLLAR BABY, GRAN TORINO explores the challenging yet rich new world that can open up when individuals let down their guard, even if for just a moment. Estranged from his family and his church, and without any sense of personal peace, Walt offers all that he has to Thao and his family, namely wisdom and protection. When tragedy strikes the family, Eastwood allows a little classic Harry Callahan to poke through, but the surprising finale posits a hero that Dirty Harry would never have the guts to be. It's a potent symbolic gesture to Eastwood's own growth as a storyteller.
Reviews
News Of The World - A monumentally great film, New York Times - These spectral figures, totems of masculinity and mementos from a heroic cinematic age, are what make this unassuming film small in scale if not in the scope of its ideas -- more than just a vendetta flick, Variety - The actor-director's second release of the season is his most stripped-down, unadorned picture in many a year, Daily Mail - A must see, Daily Express - A magnificent Clint performance, Daily Star - Utterly unmissable

    Parts arrived quickly and were suitably packed. Note: I ordered 3 DVD's, only one of which was listed as coming without a box, However, none of them had boxes when they arrived. Not necessarily a problem of you have spare boxes, but if not, the price of a box needs to be factored into the final price of your purchase.

    Excellent film - good story. It will make you laugh, make you cry and keep you engrossed throughout

    This is a brilliant film with a really good story. Clint Eastwood is excellent in portraying a really grumpy man with memories of the Korean war which haunt him. Not usually my type of film because I don't like violence but this film used it only when necessary. This was funny, sad and uplifting - superb story.

    To be recommended

    This DVD arrived ahead of predicted date, which was fine by me. It played very well. The case does not shut, but it was second-hand, and very reasonably priced. No complaints. It's a great watch too.
