Gran Torino -The Movie
Walt Kowalski: [to Father Janovich] I think you're an overeducated 27-year-old virgin who likes to hold the hands of superstitious old ladies and promise them everlasting life.
This is a 2008 movie featuring Clint Eastwood set in the US MidWest, somewhere in a small suburb in Michigan . I have never been so touched by an Eastwood movie before but this one really strikes you to your very core ... try grabbing a DVD or catch it in HBO reruns!
As a bonus, it also gives us ideas on life in the US of refugee-immigrants from Southeast Asia particularly the Hmongs, a minority hill tribe from the Laos, Vietnamese and Chinese borders.
Embedded below is the movie's beautiful theme song of the same title...enjoy!
