wtf? Clint Eastwood portrays a sample of a senior citizen who grew up in a screwed up time period and all you say is racist?

Maybe he just meant that Clint Eastwood's character in the movie is a racist. I haven't seen it yet so I can't really come up with a good argument for either side.

it's cool. i just didnt understand throwing a word that describes the main character isn't much of a response. like, i say Raiders of the Lost Ark, you say gravedigger or I say Deathwish and you say vigilante....I guess I'm glad you know one thing about it.

I saw Gran Torino and I thought it was a great film. One of the best I've seen in a long time.

Ditto - I've just seen it and it is really fantastic! I hadn't seen such a great movie since I-don't-know-when. Do yourself a favor and go see it!  Cool
