Yep. I am at that age were prison would be a nice vacation. Had a couple of punks try shit with me one day. I told them to give me one second before we danced...I took my teeth out of my mouth, placed them on the hood of the car, then asked them what they wanted me to tell their mamas when I'm asked why I put them in the hospital. They took the hint and left.
The barbershop scene was filmed in my apartment building. I came home from work and saw like 15 huge trucks. Tons of people everywhere. I asked some tech what was going on and he said clint eastwood was filming a movie. Makes you realize how much work goes into scouting places and then filming there. Clint had an RV. I never saw him but i talked to a royal oak police officer the next day that was there and he was cool. Obviously star struck the way he described Clint. Very positive cop. He said Clint walked around royal oak and met people with no bodyguard. Hes a vegetarian so he didnt eat at my fav mexican restaurant at the time. Wish i at least saw him. Had to work the next day so they were done.
Sure it would. There are plenty of movies being made that reflect American reality, they just don't get advertised hard like the stereotypical Hollywood garbage.
This came out in 2008. I remember 2008. Seems like yesterday. But the character arc of this protagonist is that he's a cranky, unhappy old man. He says racist things to everyone, including the Asian woman in this scene, but has the kind of fundamental moral code also displayed in this scene. It's a similar story arc to Matt Dillion's character's in the 2004 movie Crash. It's too bad the political center has disappeared, and so many Americans like this Eastwood character were swayed to the right, to support extremist white supremacist politicians, instead of moving left, to progressive, anti-racist positions
My maternal grandparents' names were Walter and Dorothy. Grandpa was a WWII vet, and absolute hardass who was shot in the neck, taken prisoner by the Germans, escaped, hid out in France for a few months, and made it back home to his wife. This movie makes me think of him a lot. He died pretty young (63 years old), but he was still the toughest man I've ever met.
And the, “You don’t f**king listen…”, channeled Harry Callahan’s, “You don’t listen, do ya a**hole…”, from Dirty Harry when he’s delivering the ransom money (with an open stiletto taped to his leg) to a waiting Scorpio with his Swedish Type-K (or S&W M76) SMG.

My dad fought in WWII and The Korean War. In 1969 he had to use his Colt 1911 to defend himself from a guy that was going to rob him at a Red Light in The Barrio. He was hauling Hot Asphalt at night. Drivers were getting robbed at Red Lights, so my Dad started carrying his Colt on him. One night it was Foggy, and Dad stopped at a light. He saw this guy cross over his trailer draw bar and he was sneaking up on the drivers side of the truck. Dad pulled out his gun and when the dude popped up next to the window Dads Colt was pointed right at the dudes Forehead. Dad asked him if he needed anything? The guy said he was wondering what time it was. Dad told him it was time for him to get off his truck before he Blew his Fucking head off. The guy didnt say a word.

When that movie first came out everyone said Clint was imitating my dad !! He looked just like Clint at that age . He fought in Okinawa then again in Korea .One Saturday (1973),I was 8 ,we went to a gun store . In a flash he pushed me out of the way and pulled his 45 on two guys that came in the rob the shop . He and the store owner disarmed them & pistol wiped them before the police came .. I mean they tripped ! He said that he did it in case the judge did not dispense justice . Never had to repeat himself & spanked me when I deserved it …kept me on the straight and narrow . Thanks dad!
You are incredibly blessed to have a strong father, but much of what made him that way (war) shouldn't be experienced, we redeem ourselves in our children God bless!
In real life, the three thugs on the corner would be considered victims of poverty, capitalism and systemic racism and the old man would have gone to jail.
Only one of the two candidates running would have that opinion. And that candidate raised bail for rioters whose charges were dropped because of that candidate’s pressure. I won’t vote for that candidate that perpetuates this condition in real life.
@@Mightiflier She is just a reflection of the general platform of her party. Over in the very state and I believe even the county she was DA in, they are now fining business owners for their businesses being unsafe due to being damaged by thugs during those little "street takeovers" instead of those thugs who did the damage. Coddle/reward the perpetrator, punish the victim. That's what would happen here if this were real life. "Can you believe that racist yt man pulled a GUN on three blk teens???" That's exactly what they did to Kyle Rittenhouse too.
I have never enjoyed a movie more. Saw it in the theatre when it came out, then we went back the next day and saw it again. I live in the sticks and the theatre was almost an hour and a half away. Parents took us to see the spaghetti westerns at the drive in when they came out. Clint’s 94 now and won’t last forever. That’ll be a major bummer but what a life he’s had. He and Jimmy Stewart are at the top of the pinnacle, for me.
My old school Carstens Elementary can be seen in the background , I was a student there in the 60s and lived across the street. This scene was filmed around the corner from where I lived ..
@@GreenRiver72 I had both black and white friends, the school was probably over a thousand students and never any mention of bigotry or color , of course it was a different world back then we got along with each other unlike today . Kids are taught to hate each other, sad country today ...
I didn't think I'd see another comment talking about Josey Wales, that's a somewhat obscure one. But you're right, that was definitely up there as one of his best in my opinion too 👌
@@marshalljimduncan The story is that The Actor JOHN WAYNE absolutely detested that movie. I don't know why. HIGH PLAINS DRIFTER was an outstanding movie, yet another Eastwood Masterpiece! 😍
@@stephenhagen234 uhh... maybe? But I would say that I utilized my "9" (read: Glock 19 or 26) rather than either of those models. But...okay...yes it's all the fault of Hollywood.
The scene is brilliantly written. He also reads their faces on the first draw. Since they look slightly nervous, he goes for the finger gun is a "warning" to try and let them do the right thing. Upon realizing they won't let the girl go without some more force, he fully draws his gun.
@@rsilvers129 I don't know if you've ever seen the whole movie, but that's part of his character until later in the movie when he learns to not blindly hate based on race.
That scene reminds me of my Old Man. I used to box at a gym in this terrible neighborhood. Dad drops by one day. The kids all unconsciously straighten up, take off their hats, stop swearing. He finds the coach and greets him first. Shakes hands. After he leaves Coach comes up to me and just says “wow, your pop is as old school as they come.”
They talk inappropriately to her and put their hands on her friend and then have the audacity to act offended when she gives them a dose of their own medicine. Always carry a pocket knife.
Maybe knives and pepper spray is good for people who can’t legally carry guns. But there’s a reason Clint’s character pulled out a gun and not a knife.
"Ever run into someone every once in a while that you shouldn't have fucked with? Well, thats me"... one of my top five favorite movie lines of all time
Really great message in this movie. Everyone was hating on the Asians, but they ended up being friends with the old man, and other characters in the story.
The whole message of the movie is that the old guy realized his whole life was a mistake….and the only people that accepted him were people that had no history or knowledge of him being a total asshole.
If this was a real life scenario, those three guys are probably dead or incarcerated. Boredom, no direction, no purpose, ignorance, and of course no father or father figure creates terrible and dangerous people like that. I love the way the Asian girl stands her ground with those cruel POS’!
Long ago I went to a ballgame at the old Tiger stadium. It was a twi-night double header. My friends didn't want to stay for both games so they left. After I walked from the Stadium to Woodward Ave. On my way I saw several black guys ahead. As I reached them, the fellow in front gave me the biggest smile. That is the heart of Detroit
At Clint's age he knows how to play cool, tough old guys, like in "Unforgiven","Cry Macho", and this movie. He's still the same Clint Eastwood from the Dollars Trilogy spaghetti westerns of the 60s all the way up to the more recent cinemas, just older.
He’s too old to try and be tough like that. In the real world those three thugs would have overpowered him when he turned his back on them when he was getting back into his truck.
what is there to say. Clintern is clintern. An excellent actor who delivers and delivers almost 95 years soon. There are not many left of his caliber. For a handful of dollars and a number of later top films. Gran Torino got a very high rating on imdb and it deserves it. Who will take over?
I tried the, " What are you spooks up to" When I was on the West side of Chicago going North on Cicero at gladys street. There was 4 of them congregating on the corner, It didn't work out too well for me because they pulled out a gun and I just got out of there.
It was a common thing back in the early 2000s, every white boy was sagging his pants and trying to pretend to be black in my school. 'Bro' was popularized by blacks, probably why I never said or say it. The integration of rap culture into pop culture has been complete for a decade now. But back then, it was common for whites to try to act very black.
The thing here is this is truth.If a white man is in a black neighborhood, this is the kind of stuff that happens. If a black man comes to a white neighborhood we say hello we smile and we have a conversation with them! So, who's the racist?
How common is this in this day and age? I'm sure vast majority of young black people are just chilling, doing normal stuff. Like sure, I believe places like LA, Boston, etc can have these, but in general?
@@Vario69Boston and L.A. are not even close to the same level of seediness. Boston's barely more dangerous than most major Canadian cities, and actually safer than a couple.
At today's time, he could've shot any of them and he might even get away with it. Dudes' definitely won't run to the police and tell them what really happened, considering what they were really doing prior to what happened.
In real life they would have surely been strapped, and as old and slow as he was in this scene it wouldn't have taken much to overpower him before he was able to pull his weapon. He was just way to close. If he was another 50 feet away then sure. He probably could have pulled this off ONLY IF they didn't have guns too.. it was just unrealistic honestly
@Spiritof_76 right but you see my point right? I see that if they are softies that would have been possible but in reality this guy wouldn't have stood a chance as close as he was to them
@@zebduffey5698 That's film. Do you realize how bad the shots would look if he stood a safe distance back? They wanted close ups and angles with all the characters in view. Do you watch all movies like they are documentaries? You should see how bad ass this guy named John Wick is.
@@zebduffey5698 It's all about who was willing to escalate the situation first. Once he pulled the gun out you did have the drop on them. If they're instincts were to rush them from the get going it would have been screwed.
Thugs are afraid of crazy people. Neighborhood is LA didn't let anybody through unless you wore a plad shirt buttoned only at the top......nobody. Unless you were crazy and there were a few and they came and went as they pleased. Thugs also respect those who are legitimate Alpha males. They may be afraid but will stand their ground. I get it it's a movie, but a bully knows who will and who won't stand their ground.
lived in LA 35 years ago. Was in the wrong part of own after midnight. Everyone, and I do mean everyone gave me and my buddy wide berth because two 6'2" 200lb white dudes with long hair wearing leathers strutting into store like they owned the place had to be the kind of crazy nobody wants to mess with. We got lucky.
About 10 years ago I wandered into the WRONG part of St. Louis after visiting for a wedding. Got into a fight with my gf at the time and left the reception and wandered off after a bit too many. After a few minutes I found a bar and later a food joint that was still serving hots and burgers at 4am. Both were packed. I was served last at both places, and it felt like it was on purpose. I laughed it off - I was a stranger in a strange land. No one spoke to me in either the bar or the food joint all night. I just minded my business and kind of enjoyed just being a fly on the wall. I was the only "white guy" I saw the entire night. Look back on it fondly. Probably thought I was crazy, or possibly undercover law.

The scene is all wrong. Clint Eastwood wasn't even there when Scott was saying "bro"... Clint Eastwood arrived to the intersection AFTER the bro scene happened. Movie mistake.
The three young guys were met with someone who would not hesitate to pull the trigger, yet he showed self control, thereby controlling the situation with that .45 auto. Hopefully they took a valuable lesson from this incident (even though it was just a movie).
This wasn’t supposed to be in the movie. They just happened to film Clint Eastwood driving home.

When that movie first came out everyone said Clint was imitating my dad !! He looked just like Clint at that age . He fought in Okinawa then again in Korea .One Saturday (1973),I was 8 ,we went to a gun store . In a flash he pushed me out of the way and pulled his 45 on two guys that came in the rob the shop . He and the store owner disarmed them & pistol wiped them before the police came .. I mean they tripped ! He said that he did it in case the judge did not dispense justice . Never had to repeat himself & spanked me when I deserved it …kept me on the straight and narrow . Thanks dad!
Your Dad was what we called, at one time in America, a real MAN!… Now I don’t know. 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤮
You are incredibly blessed to have a strong father, but much of what made him that way (war) shouldn't be experienced, we redeem ourselves in our children

this is one of the 10 top movie never played . clint is a actor blessed . i watched Gran Torino 5/6 times . i am living in torino 🙏🥰🥰🥰❤️ .
I have never enjoyed a movie more. Saw it in the theatre when it came out, then we went back the next day and saw it again. I live in the sticks and the theatre was almost an hour and a half away.
Parents took us to see the spaghetti westerns at the drive in when they came out. Clint’s 94 now and won’t last forever. That’ll be a major bummer but what a life he’s had. He and Jimmy Stewart are at the top of the pinnacle, for me.

He was very clever letting the gang-bangers somewhat save face at the end by making fun of the white guy. Helped to deescalate things more.
The scene is brilliantly written. He also reads their faces on the first draw. Since they look slightly nervous, he goes for the finger gun is a "warning" to try and let them do the right thing. Upon realizing they won't let the girl go without some more force, he fully draws his gun.
But he still called them two racist terms. I can’t love the scene because of it.

That scene reminds me of my Old Man. I used to box at a gym in this terrible neighborhood. Dad drops by one day. The kids all unconsciously straighten up, take off their hats, stop swearing. He finds the coach and greets him first. Shakes hands. After he leaves Coach comes up to me and just says “wow, your pop is as old school as they come.”
Legend!
I forgot about this scene.
They talk inappropriately to her and put their hands on her friend and then have the audacity to act offended when she gives them a dose of their own medicine. Always carry a pocket knife.

A pocket knife.....😆😆😆😆😆😆 let us know how that works out for you.
Maybe knives and pepper spray is good for people who can’t legally carry guns. But there’s a reason Clint’s character pulled out a gun and not a knife.

Really great message in this movie. Everyone was hating on the Asians, but they ended up being friends with the old man, and other characters in the story.
The whole message of the movie is that the old guy realized his whole life was a mistake….and the only people that accepted him were people that had no history or knowledge of him being a total asshole.
@@sdot5389seems like the people in this comment section like to gloss over that fact

Never f with a combat veteran carrying a pocket cannon. That .45 will put a big hole in you.
Placement of the bullet, not the caliber, is what matters.
Clint Eastwood is all of them COMBINED - a legend, a phenomenon, a superstar, and a gift to the world. This IS the definition of cool.
Few ft😅
cringe
Notice if you will, how their behavior improved, once they were looking down the wrong end of a 45
At Clint's age he knows how to play cool, tough old guys, like in "Unforgiven","Cry Macho", and this movie. He's still the same Clint Eastwood from the Dollars Trilogy spaghetti westerns of the 60s all the way up to the more recent cinemas, just older.
Cry Macho no, no no no!
He’s too old to try and be tough like that. In the real world those three thugs would have overpowered him when he turned his back on them when he was getting back into his truck.
what is there to say. Clintern is clintern. An excellent actor who delivers and delivers almost 95 years soon. There are not many left of his caliber. For a handful of dollars and a number of later top films. Gran Torino got a very high rating on imdb and it deserves it. Who will take over?

So Clint’s car JUST pulled up to the intersection. And somehow he was able to hear the younger guy call that one guy “BRO”
Script, it's a movie, it's called a scene.
It was a common thing back in the early 2000s, every white boy was sagging his pants and trying to pretend to be black in my school. 'Bro' was popularized by blacks, probably why I never said or say it. The integration of rap culture into pop culture has been complete for a decade now. But back then, it was common for whites to try to act very black.
He had the hearing aids on full volume enhance mode
Modern hearing aids are very good and invisible....
I love the movie but have always wondered how really obvious mistakes like this slipped through. Did no-one watch it before it was released?
The thing here is this is truth.If a white man is in a black neighborhood, this is the kind of stuff that happens.
If a black man comes to a white neighborhood we say hello we smile and we have a conversation with them! So, who's the racist?
How common is this in this day and age? I'm sure vast majority of young black people are just chilling, doing normal stuff.

At today's time, he could've shot any of them and he might even get away with it. Dudes' definitely won't run to the police and tell them what really happened, considering what they were really doing prior to what happened.

In real life they would have surely been strapped, and as old and slow as he was in this scene it wouldn't have taken much to overpower him before he was able to pull his weapon. He was just way to close. If he was another 50 feet away then sure. He probably could have pulled this off ONLY IF they didn't have guns too.. it was just unrealistic honestly

lived in LA 35 years ago. Was in the wrong part of own after midnight. Everyone, and I do mean everyone gave me and my buddy wide berth because two 6'2" 200lb white dudes with long hair wearing leathers strutting into store like they owned the place had to be the kind of crazy nobody wants to mess with. We got lucky.
About 10 years ago I wandered into the WRONG part of St. Louis after visiting for a wedding. Got into a fight with my gf at the time and left the reception and wandered off after a bit too many.
After a few minutes I found a bar and later a food joint that was still serving hots and burgers at 4am. Both were packed. I was served last at both places, and it felt like it was on purpose. I laughed it off - I was a stranger in a strange land. No one spoke to me in either the bar or the food joint all night. I just minded my business and kind of enjoyed just being a fly on the wall. I was the only "white guy" I saw the entire night. Look back on it fondly. Probably thought I was crazy, or possibly undercover law.

The scene is all wrong. Clint Eastwood wasn't even there when Scott was saying "bro"... Clint Eastwood arrived to the intersection AFTER the bro scene happened. Movie mistake.
Clint Eastwood knew all about the "bro" stuff because he was directing the movie.
Technically he was, could of heard him across the street while starring at them.
The three young guys were met with someone who would not hesitate to pull the trigger, yet he showed self control, thereby controlling the situation with that .45 auto. Hopefully they took a valuable lesson from this incident (even though it was just a movie).
