グラン・トリノ
Eastwood ended a four-year "self-imposed acting hiatus" by appearing in "Gran Torino" (also 2008), which he also directed, produced and partly scored with his son Kyle and Jamie Cullum. Biographer Marc Eliot called Eastwood's role "an amalgam of the Man with No Name, Dirty Harry, and William Munny, here aged and cynical but willing and able to fight on whenever the need arose". "Gran Torino" grossed almost $30 million during its opening weekend release in January 2009, the highest of his career as an actor or director. "Gran Torino" eventually grossed over $268 million in theaters worldwide, becoming the highest-grossing film of Eastwood's career so far (without adjustment for inflation).
