Kapish redonkulous?

Havent enjoyed a movie scene like this in a long time since the bread came in slices and changed the way we lead our lives... . The movie is worth for this one scene.

Two Men With The Blues

Two super-heroes of our times, one at 78 and the other at 75:



Roger Ebert writes in his review of Gran Torino:
I would like to grow up to be like Clint Eastwood. Eastwood the director, Eastwood the actor, Eastwood the invincible, Eastwood the old man. What other figure in the history of the cinema has been an actor for 53 years, a director for 37, won two Oscars for direction, two more for best picture, plus the Thalberg Award, and at 78 can direct himself in his own film and look meaner than hell? None, that's how many.

AV Club writes in the review of Willie Nelson's collaboration album with Wynton Marsalis, released in 2008.
Willie Nelson records so frequently (2008 releases included Two Men With The Blues, the solo Moment Of Forever, and the career-spanning box One Hell Of A Ride) that it takes some stamina to keep up. Not bad for a guy who recently turned 75.

Note: I haven't watched Eastwood's movie, but listened to Nelson's Two men with blues, which is a fantastic album.
