Better than expected and I was looking for a good film.

Rating: 9/10 (6 January 2009)

I may rate this higher than normal just because there seems to be a lack of good stuff lately.
Ill be first and foremost and disagree with so many calling the supporting cast bad actors. I think the awkward nature of the main char., combined with the mindset of the town hes surrounded by is completely within reason. I think it would have been very wooden and weird to try and welcome a person like him.
Eastwood does a good job of portraying an ignorant, racist, stuck in his ways old man. He does a fantastic job of showing that his way of looking at things doesn't even make sense to him.
One of the best movies I've seen in a bit.
