Dec 20, 2011 5:44 PM

Korean War vet and retired autoworker Walt Kowalski doesn't much like how his life or his neighborhood has turned out. He especially doesn't like the people next door. Hmong immigrants from Southeast Asia. But events force Walt to defend those neighbors against a local gang that feeds on violence and fear. For the first time since "Million Dollar Baby", Clint Eastwood works on both sides of the camera, winning the National Board of Review Award as Best Actor for his bone-deep playing of Kowalski, burnished with experience, grace and gravitas into a "prime vintage Eastwood performance" Peter Travers, Rolling Stone).

Features:
- "Manning The Wheel" - The meaning of manhood as reflected in American Car Culture
- "Gran Torino: More Than A Car": Visit Detroit and the Woodward Dream Cruise, an annual Vintage Car Event where buffs describe the unique bond between men and vehicles
- "The Eastwood Way" - Exploring the Actor/Director's filmmaking process up close
- BD-Live Enabled

I liked that movie...Clint was excellent! I wouldn't watch it if you're especially sensitive to racial slurs though! I for one loved his creative words!

Eastwood was great in this movie, but the supporting actors were definitely lacking. I can't decide if I actually liked it or not. It wasn't bad though. It must be good, because I've watched it a few times.

"Jesus, Joseph and Mary. These Hmong broads are like badgers"

Great movie.

Excellent movie! Resisted watching it for quite some time, then finally gave in. Loved it! The slurs made me uncomfortable, but that's probably a good thing. In for one!

My favorite recent movie, even if they sidestepped the opportunity to have Mr Eastwood deliver the line, "A man's got to know his vegetation!"

Highly recommended, even for those who may be offended. I hope I can be even half as courageous when my time is up.

Not a farewell, just a forced redirect.

It's true, Local.Woot is no longer, but please don't despair.

Never-ending savings are still to be found on Deals.Woot each and every day, so come on in. Don't think of it as a time for tears. Think of it as a way to bring us all closer together under one roof.

Sorry

This is only for people who have bought woots

We restrict voting to users who have purchased something from one of the other Woot stores. It's not just because we want your money (which we do) - it's the best way to be sure all the votes are coming from real people and not spam-bots or phony accounts. The best way we can think of, anyway. For now.

You can always get voting rights by buying something from one of Woot's other sites:

Purchases through Deals.Woot don't count, because in that case you're not buying anything from us. And we don't have your account information for those purchases.

If you think you've bought something from Woot before and still can't vote, make sure you're logged in with the same account you used to buy from us.

Geez, why so negative?

You have to vote up more before you can vote down.

Don't get us wrong. Negativity has its place. And downvotes are just as essential as upvotes when it comes to making Deals.Woot a useful place to find deals.

But when your votes lean so heavily toward the dark side, we have to wonder. Go vote up a few things. Accentuate the positive for a little while. It'll do you some good, and it'll do the site some good, too. Then you can get back to dealing out the smackdowns, OK?

Too late, we all heard you!

Hmm... you're wanting to take your vote back?

Well, that's a bit tricky. See, we do a lot of stuff with your vote, using it to work out the popularity of what you voted for, compare that to all the other things voted on, tally up our leaderboard, work out your reputation. Someday we'll do a little cartoon showing just how hard your vote is working.

Anyway, taking votes back messes all that up, so we give you five minutes, in case you just mis-clicked. After that we've got to say no take-backs. Luckily, votes are free, so feel free to throw them around left and right wherever you see fit.
