I was supposed to see this Tuesday last week, but I couldn't drive thanks to my wrist. Guess I'll catch it next week.

Got this and Changling to catch up with, so many films so little time.
About time we had a get together again, you up to anything this Sat?

Well worth a look. I may try to watch Changeling at some point, but Torino appealed more really.
And yeah, I think we're free this weekend. I 'll check with Amanda and text you tomorrow.

Nice one, got some catching up to do, look forward to hearing from you.
The only thing we've seen recently which really impressed us was MILK, which is worth checking out, it's really good.

"Gran Tornio is no Unforgiven."

Quite right - it's far better than Unforgiven.

Unlike that overrated western, which ends up embracing the myths it spends most of its runtime time debunking, Torino refuses to let its hero solve his problems with a blast of overwhelming violence.

And Eastwood gives a much better performance in Gran Torino too.
