Don't ruin it for me.......

I hear it involves an old Ford

used to take vacations in '74 gran torino wagon, complete with
wood grain veneer.

That would make it a family Truckster GT. Without the veneer it is just a Truckster Sport.

My wife had a '73 when I met her. OK car, but worthless on snow......

By name only, the car is shown for seconds only. Makes you wonder why he choose the name.

If my memory serves me, I think that's the "Wagon Queen Family Truckster. You think you hate it now, wait till you drive it...."

One of the Mom's on my Son's hockey team plays Eastwood's Daughter-In-Law in this movie.

I am looking forward to seeing this one.

It was shown for more than a few seconds. Give the plot, it is a fitting name for the movie. First rate Eastwood.

And it made my wife cry too...

New job = less free computer time!

Gran Torino was excellent.....

 

[mick]

from what i've heard, this movie was written/conceived by a bartender
in twin cities?.....and eastwood read the basic plotline/script and did not want
to change a thing?
anyone else heard this?

not surprising to hear that the movie is excellent - hopefully will see soon
too, and i don't see many flicks in the theatre.

Just got home from seeing this movie. Awesome! 2 big thumbs up.

I gotta see this movie. It has very strong Minneapolis-St. Paul ties as the screenplay was done by a Fridley (suburb of MSP) native and two of the actors are MSP residents. I've heard great things about the movie.
