Posted By Web Editor on Fri, Jan 16, 2009 at 12:19 PM
Clint Eastwood has stated that Gran Torino might mark his final appearance as an actor (he plans to keep directing), and if he sticks to his guns, it's an appropriate way to end a magnificent career. In that respect, it brings to mind John Wayne's swan song, the elegiac Western The Shootist (directed, incidentally, by Eastwood's mentor Don Siegel), as both movies deal with aging men -- and we're talking about the actors as well as the characters they're portraying -- whose lifelong dalliances with violence finally lead to both an understanding and acceptance of sorts.
