60 of 132 · most liked firstIn the movie Gran Torino, Clint Eastwood sacrifices himself to save some local family from some gangsters or something. There’s a shot where he’s dead on the ground and blood is streaming into his palms (very obvious visual metaphor) and an old woman in the audience gasped and yelled “it’s Jesus!”
unlabelledView post →This is mentioned in the film Gran Torino
unlabelledView post →I don’t know if it’s the best, but “Gran Torino” is a good movie that conveys a conservative pro-immigration message very well.
unlabelledView post →I mostly think “you could never make x today” is the lowest form of conversation but you probably couldn’t make Gran Torino, a movie about Clint Eastwood being mad too many Hmong people live in his neighborhood but in a cool way
unlabelledView post →You could make a movie like “Gran Torino” that’s really right-wing (and well-made) but it would get Clint Eastwood death threats these days because it dares to portray an Asian immigrant family in a positive light.

unlabelledView post →Gran Torino is an excellent movie. I love it.
unlabelledView post →Gran Torino is a *weird* film. (I also think that there's some antecedents here in the Dirty Harry films)
unlabelledView post →I’m also confused why “Romani” is the theoretical example here, like how Clint Eastwood had his racist character in Gran Torino up against the Hmong so the movie wouldn’t be called racist by as many people

unlabelledView post →the second date i went on with my first ex boyfriend was really nice. it was a kinda typical at movie date and getting drunk thing that turned into fucking for hours. the funny bit is that the movies were Gran Torino and Fat Albert
unlabelledView post →"Hmong" is the only noun used in the movie Gran Torino that isn't actually a slur

unlabelledView post →This brings to mind the Clint Eastwood movie Gran Torino when he says there's always someone badder than you out there. Terribly paraphrased but you get the idea don't you Elon 😂😂😂
unlabelledView post →Clearly a paid outside agitator. Clint Eastwood made a whole ass movie about how the midwestern Hmong are cool. He gave his Hmong friend the Gran Torino and everything
unlabelledView post →I cite “Gran Torino” as a very good conservative film a lot, but because MAGA is a personality cult built around a racist buffoon, Matt Walsh would incite death threats aimed at Eastwood for daring to portray an Asian immigrant family in a positive way.
unlabelledView post →But Gran Torino is a good movie. Trouble with the Curve is where he started making garbage.
unlabelledView post →GRAN TORINO is a film about a man who lets go of his bigotry and chooses to support and defend a community of marginalized immigrants by sacrificing himself (and deliberately not using a gun in the process). I don't quite see how that matches up with the current GOP playbook.

unlabelledView post →What guys like Walsh and Shapiro want is every movie and TV show to be Yellowstone, Top Gun, Master and Commander, Jack Ryan and Gran Torino, except with fewer strong supporting characters who are women/POC. That is their "vision." And the organizers of the "fair" should have just gone MAGA C&W.

unlabelledView post →Gran Torino was made fundamentally a small-c conservative movie, but its immigration politics have aged interestingly in light of where the GOP has gone lol
unlabelledView post →Somehow he managed to make a right-wing movie that was PRO-IMMIGRANT in “Gran Torino”. I assume JD Vance started crying and sucking his thumb when he saw it.
unlabelledView post →There is a literal scene in the racist Clint Eastwood movie Gran Torino where he says it to some young black men and everyone looks at him all confused. That racist ass movie knew it was so archaic they play it for laughs.

unlabelledView post →Eastwood has two: Unforgiven is the unofficial fourth film in the Sergio Leone spaghetti western trilogy and Gran Torino is the final Dirty Harry movie. I don’t think anyone would say either are the best in their franchises

unlabelledView post →Juror #2 led me to a re-watch of Gran Torino, a remarkable film marred by a few truly terrible line deliveries. I felt like I watched one actor improve in real time. It's incredible how great the movie is despite this!
unlabelledView post →365 Days of Films Day 327 Gran Torino 2008 The way this movie makes you hate and love the same character is crazy. It's genuinely a great movie about a sad truth of a generation. #filmsky #movies #moviesky
unlabelledView post →Gran Torino. Old racist befriends some Hmong family and gets his gun out. Amazing movie. The Mule was also good!
unlabelledView post →That'd be a great essay to read, please do when you can. A standout film of his for me was 'Gran Torino.' It still haunts me as a story about intersections between our reverence of American "war heroes" & their inner traumas, as well as fears of cultural diversity vs. our shared humanity.

unlabelledView post →GRAN TORINO - (2008) ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Last night's #Movie Directed by and starring Clint Eastwood with a fine Hmong American supporting cast (a 1st for an American film) incl. Bee Vang & Ahney Her. There is much to confront in this film, and its themes certainly unpalatable at times, but remains a great film.
unlabelledView post →101. Gran Torino The absolute zenith of boomer slop, at times so on-the-nose I genuinely couldn't tell if I was watching a parody or not. Either way, this film gave me absolutely nothing, which is almost worse than any of the absurd slurs flying past Clint's mouth. Those are bad too though. 1.3/10

unlabelledView post →Gran Torino is a terrible date movie
unlabelledView post →...and he's made a lot of different kinds of films in his time, but his 70s films seem to be very concerned with being shocking and transgressive of good taste, which is something that would come back in GRAN TORINO. HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER is a great film (in my opinion) because it sort of earns...

unlabelledView post →Imdb is now out 5.2 but it wasn't that bad. Absolution 2024 with Liam Neeson. The guy still can act (I was curious). The film deserved a 6.3 maybe Idk. A bit too long, too slow and déjà vu. It's Gran Torino without the twist and turns. Films often needs a little magic to come all together.
