Saturday afternoon, Peoria Illinois, 1:35pm, a jam packed movie theater. I'm there to see Eastwood's new flick Gran Torino and apparently so is everyone else in town. The $5 matinee is hard to pass up. Post-flick I tried to send nick a text, but after dropping my phone so many times, I can't use the backspace key. Anyway, here is what I would have said in 160 characters or less:
Gran Torino is Clint making racist jokes, being surly, and 'manning up' a young kid. Good stuff. The audience and I dug it. You might too, don't be a pussy.
That's all I'm going to give you right now. Tune in to Podcast Episode 63 this Tuesday for the full rundown.
no backspace? just a chance to work towards perfection with every text.
Clint Eastwood would probably say something like "only pussies use backspace"
I found myself surprisingly entertained by this movie. A lot (a lot) of the acting in it (including some of Eastwood's mugging) was pretty terrible though.
