    Re: Gran Torino

    Yea...the previews look great, it's Eastwood man, how could it not be any good? This is on my list of movies to see. Another one of Eastwoods movies that I'm wanting to get the DVD to is titled "Unforgiven"...I think I have seen it befire but it's been a long time ago, it stars Eastwood and Gene Hackman and has one of the best bar shoot outs ever put on film according to the latest issue of Outdoor Life.

    And then how about that "Outlaw Josey Wales" movie, the part where Eastwood says "Dyin' ain't much of a livin', boy." Classics indeed!

    I saw it last weekend and I think it's a great film. I'm a very tough critic, too. It has everything - drama, action, comedy.

    The old spaghetti westerns with Eastwood playing the hero and Italians playing Mexicans are my favorite movies ever. The Good the Bad and the Ugly(Lee Van Cleef was the best bad guy any western could ever have)...Once Upon a Time in the West...High Plains Drifter...A Fist Full of Dollars...

    After Saving Private Ryan, Tom Hanks went on to do Band of Brothers and he donated over 8 million dollars to get the WWII monument finished and was instrumental in getting it accomplished. Yea in my book that makes him alright for me.

    The wife made me see Marley and Me this weekend. It was a lot better than I thought. She said it was based on a true story. The guy is now a multi, multi, multi millionaire.

    I wish I would have written some stories about my dog. I would have been happy if he would have made me ten bucks.
