Clipart - Gran Torino


Everyone should have a place to sit and think about life. Most of all, everyone should reflect upon their old grudges and eventual remorse. Clint Eastwood's porch is a excellent way to start yet another great film.

Different nationalities, ethnic groups, immigrants, social groups and races try to coexist in the same neighbourhood. Tension is as strong on the outside as inside this man, hardened by a present that has little to do with the values he grew up with.

Once again, Clint Eastwood directs and plays in a great film, with a performance that brightens the screen. One could not say the same from the young actors but there's always a feeble beginning for everyone.

A drama/comedy with very good, coherent Portuguese subtitles, that will keep you waiting outside this porch until the very last minute.
