I finally got round to watching Gran Torino tonight. I bought it ages ago but I've never made the time to watch it. I'd obviously heard a wee bit about the film but I'd just never watched it.
Clint Eastwood directed and acted in this film, the story of Walt Kowalski, a recently widowed, slightly bigoted, Korean war veteran. Despite some slightly racist attitudes Kowalski is basically a decent person. The neighbourhood he lives in is now deprived and troubled by gang violence. Kowalski finds that he cannot ignore this and tries to help his neighbours.
This is a good film and Eastwood is brilliant. Worth seeing.
