Movie Review : Gran Torino

 


Gran Torino was released in 2008. It was directed by Clint Eastwood. The lead actor is also Clint Eastwood. It was nominated for Best Picture at the Academy Awards. The box office grossed about 270 million worldwide.



Walt Kowalski worked as an auto assembler for 50 years. He has lost his wife. His favorite car is a Gran Torino and he is proud of it. He has been living in Detroit as a recluse, and he is very stubborn. Even his own son and friends hate him. In the midst of his beer drinking days, he meets a boy named Tao.


The first thing I thought was that the actor playing the main character Walt was excellent. Surprisingly, the lead actor is the director, Clint Eastwood. The director and the actor both do a great job and it is wonderful. The main character is a stubborn and scary old man. In addition, his words and actions are dirty. He interacts with the people around him, and they become kind to him. The teenager grows up with him. These scenes are very impressive. It makes me think that people can change at any age. I was moved by the director's wonderful acting and the story.
