Watching the Oscars Sunday night, I was not only thrilled to see my favorite film of the year, Slumdog Millionaire, win eight awards including Best Director for Danny Boyle and Best Picture, but I was also more and more disappointed in what looks like the snubbing of another of this year’s great movies: Gran Torino. I finally got around to seeing Clint Eastwood’s meditative and emotional drama about racism, aging and justice last week, and I was blown away.
