Gran Torino (2008)
Der verwitwete Koreakrieg-Veteran Walt Kowalski ist ein verbitterter Misanthrop. Für die jüngere Generation hat er ob deren angeblicher Respektlosigkeit nur Verachtung übrig, das Verhältnis zu seinen eigenen Kindern ist eisig. Liebe und Zuneigung erfahren lediglich sein Hund Daisy, sein altes Sturmgewehr sowie sein pedantisch gepflegter Ford Gran Torino. Dass Kowalskis einst geliebtes Viertel zunehmend von Migranten vor allem aus Südostasien überschwemmt wird, ist dem pensionierten Fabrikarbeiter ein massiver Dorn im Auge. Beim Einzug einer koreanischen Familie ins Nachbarhaus, macht der rassistische Rentner auch keinen Hehl aus seiner Verachtung. Als deren halbwüchsiger Sohn Taoh im Zuge eines Initiationsrituals ausgerechnet Kowalskis geliebten Gran Torino stehlen soll, droht die angespannte Situation zu eskalieren ...
