Here we are together to review the third and final day of a three-part installment of our Director’s Chair series. Over the course of his fifty-five years of working in the film industry, he has left quite a legacy behind him. He is still going strong and working hard as he is hovering around the age of eighty years old. This fact speaks loud and clear to us that he is a determined old man to work himself right to the very end. On the first day of the series, we covered the broad overview of his career as well as brief glimpse upon the western genre that jump-started his claim to fame. Then on the second day, we moved toward the more dramatic films that he has directed in the more recent years. And now for the last day of the series I would like to cover a couple of films that he has directed in which we are expected to reflect upon our past history of international affairs as well as the affairs of our own neighborhood. I am referring to two of his films about World War II as well as a particular film about growing old.REVIEWS FOR Gran Torino (2008)
