Re: Gran Torino

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0080031/
...Baby is doing well..and my son has the green light on the Iowa game ..Lucky ****head
CONTROLL FREAK is OUT.
Interesting:
...The rifle Horn uses to such deadly effect in the film is an original Winchester Model 1876 in .45-60 caliber, fitted with a custom tang sight. Manufactured from 1877-1894, the Model '76 was an obsolete arm by the turn of the century, when the events of the story take place. All the available historical sources state that Horn actually used a .30-30 Winchester Model 1894 for his controversial activities as a "stock detective" in Wyoming. Horn gave this rifle to rancher C.B. Irwin not long before Horn's execution on November 20, 1903. It resides today in the collection of the National Cowboy Hall of Fame in Oklahoma City.

Re: Gran Torino
....On 7/20 I saw this movie which was wonderful...Visually it was a canvas and the way I the way I still see it..The dialogue was minimal which was the way I remember it 50 years later...People just ran out of words by 10:00 am...That is what I wanted you guys to understand "****" and "****2" is a response to this movie, and all that beauty of the old west. I still can't get over some of the outdoor scenes....Control out
