Bible in the movies: April 2009 Archives

Spoiler alert: If you haven't yet seen Clint Eastwood's Gran Torino, don't read any more here.

Clint was all Clint in his latest, Gran Torino, but he did a mighty fine Jesus, too. I'm assuming, given the spoiler alert above, that you've already seen the movie. I loved it, especially for its ending. But of course the power of that ending would be nothing without the story and character development that led to it.

By the end, we long for a dramatic blood-letting, a great ass-whooping of the nasty thugs, and we know that Clint is just the guy to do it.
