So this will make four films Clint Eastwood has directed and released in the last 2 years, which includes The Changeling, due out next month and starring Angelina Jolie. Wow....he's a machine!

I'm gonna see it! :thup:

OH, an old ford and a "US Rifle - Cal .30 - M1" (Garand) and Clint. That is bound to be good.

AND a "US Army Model of 1911" too...

BTW - If any one wants a early 70's Grand Torino Sport you should probably buy it now...

Looks like it'll be a good movie. I sold my '72 Gran Torino earlier this year. It was just like that one except mine was a coupe, not a fastback. I replaced it with my bump a couple months later. I miss it from time to time, but I like my bump too! :thup:

This movie looks bada$$. I'll be sure to see it when it comes out. Clint's character has great taste in vehicle. :thup:

The scene when his kids talk about sending him to a retirement home reminds me of "Tough Guys" with Burt Lancaster and Kirk Douglas. If you guys haven't seen that one, you MUST!

January 2001, a friend and I crashed a party at the Ritz Carlton on Maui. I knew the girl working the door so she let us slide on in. We bee-lined towards the front and found a spot six or seven rows from the stage. I didn't know the band, my buddy, several years younger than I explained they were Sugar Ray. Anyway, a song or two later, he nudges my shoulder and I turn around to see we are standing directly in front of Clint Eastwood and Joe Torre. Both were on the island to support the Mercedes Pro golf tournament. Well, we watched about three more songs before security realized we had no wrist bands. As they approached we made are way to the door about tens steps ahead of them. Hopped in the 1985 F250 4X4 I had parked front and center and split. So, needless to say I felt a little renegade the day I saw Clint.
