Gran Torino is not a movie to be watched by someone who has been violently victimized.

My anxiety was at its almost peak throughout the entire show. It’s bittersweet ending was not something I needed on a day like this.

Something just did not feel quite right today, but I am still unable to decipher what.

And I do consider this movie to have a sad ending because Clint Eastwood’s character gets killed by multiple gunshot. Doesn’t matter that the bandits get put away.

I’m beginning to realize that I’m not someone who allows the end to justify the means. Or perhaps I’m an idealist after the fairytale.

But I do believe in fairytales, and this is something the evil of this world cannot take away from me.
