If I have a chance to snap with the well-known Hollywood moguls, who will be my NO.1 choice? George Lucas? Steven Spielberg or Clint Eastwood? Of course, I would like to pick Eastwood. The reason is simple：He is tough, cold, old school- actually I am not sure- he is definitely a legend.
Not only did I think so, but many of American movie goers even critics. See what they said: Roger Ebert: I would like to grow up to be like Clint Eastwood. Eastwood the director, Eastwood the actor, Eastwood the invincible, Eastwood the old man. What other figure in the history of the cinema has been an actor for 53 years, a director for 37, won two Oscars for direction, two more for best picture, plus the Thalberg Award, and at 78 can direct himself in his own film and look meaner than hell? None, that's how many.
(New York Times) MANOHLA DARGIS: Twice in the last decade, just as the holiday movie season has begun to sag under the weight of its own bloat, full of noise and nonsense signifying nothing, Clint Eastwood has slipped another film into theaters and shown everyone how it’s done. This year’s model is “Gran Torino,” a sleek, muscle car of a movie Made in the U.S.A., in that industrial graveyard called Detroit. I’m not sure how he does it, but I don’t want him to stop. Not because every film is great — though, damn, many are — but because even the misfires show an urgent engagement with the tougher, messier, bigger questions of American life.
No doubt. I am a die-hard fan for Mr. Eastwood. Not because he is always a tough hero on the screen, but because he have a sensitive and open heart and mind, especially covered under his stiff face.
He starred many different characters in diverse genres: romance “The Bridges of Madison County,1995 " ；violent cop “Dirty Harry "；countless lonely western cowboys；from different angles ,both American and Japanese, about the same battle , Iwo Jima – Flags of our fathers and Letters from Iwo Jima ,2006；cold, dire and gloomy “ Mystic River.2003"；touching and heartbreaking baby, "Million Baby,2004"；not to mention, anti –hero classic “ Unforgiven, 1992.”；Oh, gush, he also sang in the movie “Paint Your Wagon (1969)”
God damn it ！This guy is incredible!I almost have seen his every movie since 1990s. No doubt, Gran Torino is one of his best films, another classic. Come on! Who cares the damn Oscar winner! Mr. Eastwood has already won twice for "best director". He is the best living director in the U.S..
Gran Torino talks about “races ", minority VS. Majority. Racial problem in the U.S. is much tougher and more complicated than in Taiwan. It is hard for Taiwanese to imagine the problems if you never lived in the U.S..
Mr. Eastwood, once again, starred a tough, quirky, isolated white old man, even for his sons and grandchildren hard to be with. God damn it! You see The Dirty Harry phantom on the screen again. What a pity, local people have no memory or background about this legendary icon. However, the character he played, I don’t think, is a racist.
See how a American viewer said：
Was it Clint, or my dad??-- by wasntmedude (movies profile) Jan 7, 2009 --how many of us white guys have dads or uncles who are the inspiration for this film? Not truly racist, but mad at the changing world, and all the different looking people invading their way of life. This film will hit home for all of you who had dads that would warn you once, and then smack your butt instead of telling you twice.
Today is 62nd 228 anniversaries. Compared with the U.S., the racial problem here is minor. For me. The truth is definitely needed to reveal even though, the murderers and victims died long ago. This is the only way to let people mitigate their long- time trauma and pain.
In my point of view, I always say, 228 and the following white horror is not the problem about races but about the relentless rulers and the innocent people.
228 has passed for 62 years；however, without an open mind facing the issue like Mr. Eastwood, the pain and sadness will keep going forever. That is really sad.
Solute to you! Mr. Eastwood!
Subway Series ,one of the most important events in NYC, is coming again. first let's check the ballpark menu first. they look extremely palatable! how can we resist them.however, do not forget to check the price before you order. 
Once upon a time, when I was a kid, I saw “Star Treks,” and I was totally overwhelmed by this sci-fi series. At that time, I made a decision, some day, I would go abroad to see “how big the world it is!”
