The amount of violence is only what is necessary to tell the story. However, Phyllis was unable to finish watching Shawshank Redemption (another wonderful movie) due to its limited scenes of violence, so I won't even ask her to watch Gran Torino. I needed to share the story with her, though, so I simply told it to her to the best of my ability.Buzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17820913066052044418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-35472762632363032372009-11-23T00:31:21.567-08:002009-11-23T00:31:21.567-08:00I loved the movie too.

For some reason I am very sensitive to violence lately, preferring to pass on those movies for fun ones.Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13178290697351352495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-4349566919712475652009-11-22T20:09:58.372-08:002009-11-22T20:09:58.372-08:00Haven't heard of it but will try to find a cop...Haven't heard of it but will try to find a copy here. DJ thank you so much for visiting my blog, yes, it's been six months and I have posted a hundred blogs, and without all of you maybe I will never reached this number. I don't count comments, I understand if some people can't visit my blog, it happens sometimes which happens to me too. I like your positive attitude, and even if we don't see each other in the real world, I feel happy to be with you and all of you in the cyberworld, there's no difference between real friends and bloggy friends, really.<br /><br />ALAlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09492525710308662179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6050996142546962834.post-75646709475231798992009-11-22T16:21:34.803-08:002009-11-22T16:21:34.803-08:00I haven't seen the movie, but have wanted to s...I haven't seen the movie, but have wanted to see it for a while.

It really was awesome how it ends and an old thought runs through my mind: You can't pick your family, but you can pick your friends.
