I heard it opens in some theaters on Christmas Day. If it's here, my wife and I are going to see it.

 The three folks i know who have seen it say it's "Great"... It should be coming from Mr. Eastwood,.. none of his movies i can recall have exactly been slouches, either at the box office or award ceremonies...
I have a friend who's a photog. for the LA Times. He's photographed "Clint"  on numerous occasions and says he's a really great guy.. here's one of his shots..



My buddy got free tickets so were going, soon.. perhaps tonight...

its not 'awesome' but clint has some fine moments. I like his truck better than the Torino.

Its rusted Ford truck, why would you like it?

[SFRT]

i just really love older ford trucks, especially 1970-74 ones.

I just saw it on DVD. Good movie but I was hoping there would be more "car stuff" in it like he would race someone or run over them. After all he was dirty harry!

[Tilar]

I want to see it. I tried that link that Gowdy posted but it goes nowhere. 

Guess I'll hunt it down on dvd.

[69bronzeT5]

Because he got the link wrong! Here's the right one...I'm watching it right now.

Cool. Thanks Cody!

I was really getting into the movie...however, it stopped working 78 minutes in. Damn it, now I have to go rent it so I can see the ending

[Tilar]

I got all the way through it. It was good but definitely not the ending I was expecting from Clint Eastwood. Maybe you can try a different server?

Wife realy liked it and i think its a good movie. I bought the dvd for her and it has woodward cruz and a special on cars and their owners. Haven't watched those yet.

I picked up the Blu-Ray the other day. Waiting for a good night to watch it...one where there's minimum chance of me falling asleep 10 minutes in.

Good movie.  Cool car.  I couldn't help but wonder how the movie would be different if they called it "Dodge Charger."  I imagine they'd have put in an extra scene near the end so the car could be destroyed and left for dead in a flaming pile of twisted wreckage.

Just saw it. It is a good movie.

[69*F5*SE]

I just saw it last night.  Good movie but the ending WTF. 

[PocketThunder]

I just noticed the last time i was back to my home town that there is a guy a couple blocks down from my Dad that has a similar year and color ranchero that hasnt seen snow or rain since before i was a shot in the sheets.  Its got a for sale sign on it also, but i'm not a blue oval guy.

Watched it last night and really enjoyed it.

PT, does the car have this same gaping mouth front end?


They only used that front end in '72 & only on coupes. However, they did have notchback & fastback flavors available. These are my favorite Torino's...plus they even like to rust a lot, like Chargers do.
