I just sat alone and watched Gran Torino by Clint Eastwood.. What a great movie. What a great teacher about racism and inclusion...
I pretty much love Clint Eastwood, no matter the movie!!
But this movie was especially good because it had a lesson and it was a tear jerker as well as classic Clint Eastwood tough.

I watched the trailer, it does look like a good movie.
Clint Eastwood set the pace of my life back in 1967. It was the first time I went to a drive in movie and the first date I had with my then future husband. The name of the movie - The Good The Bad and The Ugly.
Yeah, he's looking old, but he is old. We all are that remember the 50's and 60's. Bummer!!
I went to see Bob Seger last winter in Boston - me and all my kids that knew every one of his songs by heart because that is what I played in the car on my very sophisticated 8 track. Fun but bitter sweat. ... gotta turn the page...
I'll look for Gran Torino.

I grew up with people around me listening to him, so I know every one of his songs and now own his greatest hits CD. Funny thing-I also know just about every John Denver and Helen Reddy song because my mom would clean the house to those 8-tracks..
