  t5m: Love Personality, Love t5m — Authority: 151
  Some critics have already labelled this modern-day fable of Michael Caines elderly avenging angel as the British Gran Torino.

  Craig J. Sorensen — Authority: 112
  Back in those crazy seventies, I had a kind of odd assortment of cars. On the tiny end of the scale, a Ford Fiesta that my girlfriends father called the tomato can. On the hefty end of the scale, a 1968 Chrysler New York with a gas gauge that didnt work. I actually owned both of those cars at the same time. ...

  gordonandthewhale.com — Authority: 539
  The very first poster for Clint Eastwood’s INVICTUS is finally here. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: Eastwood is one of the most prolific writer/directors we have today and I think our cinematic world is the better for it.

  79-year-old Clint Eastwood is just simply not slowing down.
