Guilt, Forgiveness, And Clint Eastwood: Gran Torino

OS surfed through channels last night, wasn't really paying attention, and landed on TNT's broadcast of Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino. He was expecting, perhaps, an octogenarian 'Dirty Harry' sort of experience...and was dead wrong.

Eastwood's portrayal of the protagonist Walt draws both chuckles and tears, scene by scene, and this old man you love to hate becomes the man you can't help but love.

It's difficult to write in detail without betraying the story. But in a world that spews out 'entertainment' like Hangover, this is a refreshing contrast. OS will allow, however, that this is the most Christian movie he has seen in many a year.
