| Plot: | In Michigan, the grumpy widower Walt Kowalski is a Korean War veteran full of prejudice that has just lost his beloved wife Dorothy. He is one of the last Caucasian Americans in his neighborhood and does not have good relationship with his sons and their families; therefore he is a lonely man. When his teenager neighbor Thao Vang Lor is pressed by his cousin Smokie to join his Hmong gang, he is assigned to steal the Gran Torino of Walt as part of his initiation in the gang. However, he is surprised by the old man and his traditional family feels ashamed with the incident. Later Walt saves Thao first and his sister Sue Lor from gangs and he has the gratitude of his next door neighbors and the neighborhood. On the day of his birthday, Walt is invited by Sue to join her family reunion and he begins a relationship with his neighbors, helping Thao to get a job. However, he realizes that the Hmong gang disturbs the neighborhood and after a coward attack of the gangster, Walt decides to take an ultimate attitude. |

Goofs

Revealing mistakes: SPOILER: When Walt gets angry and punches his hand through the glass cabinet, the glass is clearly a prop piece. CHAR: In the bathtub scene, Walt he says he never smoked in the house. He smoked in his home before the priest came over for a beer. BOOM: When Walt and Sue start to sit to talk on Walt's back porch, the boom mic appears ever so slightly. Continuity: In the scene where Thao goes along with Walt to the barbershop, the barber's jacket zipper changes position several times. Continuity: At the medical office, the physician introduces herself as Dr. Chu. In the credits, she is Dr. Chang. FAIR: Walt says he used the M1 Garand rifle in Korea. U.S. Military personnel are usually not allowed to keep their service weapons. However, some rifles, identified by serial number, were available for purchase through the Civilian Marksmanship Program after they were deemed obsolete or unfit for service. Enlisted and commissioned personnel also frequently "liberated" their weapons. Continuity: SPOILER: Throughout the film, one of the balusters in the railing on the front porch of the Hmong house is missing. At the end, when the brother and sister get into the Checker cab to go to the funeral, the house still has bullet holes and boarded up windows, but the missing baluster reappears. Continuity: When Walt goes downstairs during the barbecue, he places his beer on the washing machine. In the next shot, the beer is in his hand. Continuity: When Walt drinks beer in Sue's kitchen, the level of the beer gets higher the longer he drinks it. BOOM: During Walt's second phone conversation about his medical records, a boom mike appears in Walt's son's house, above the kitchen table. Continuity: During the closing credits, with the prolonged shot of the cars driving by the lake, the Gran Torino appears a second time. FAIR: The medical form shows Walt's marital status as "married." The film opens with his wife's funeral. It is Walt's first visit to the medical center since his wife died. Based on the conversation with Dr. Chu, it had been more than 3 years since his last visit (long enough that he wasn't aware that his former physician Dr. Feldman had died, and been replaced by her). With all that was going on in his life at the time of that visit, he could have simply forgotten to update his marital status. Continuity: SPOILER: After Walt punches in his kitchen cabinets and is sitting in the chair smoking, both of his knuckles are bleeding. At one point his right hand appears without blood while his left is still bloody (dried at this point). In another shot of the same scene, where he's talking with the priest, both hands are bloody again. Crew: In the bathroom scene when he is bathing and smoking, the reflection of the camera man's legs are visible on the bathtub. Fact errors: The Gran Torino's Michigan license plate number has 3 letters, followed by 3 numbers, then by 1 letter. Michigan license plates have 3 letters followed by 4 numbers. Continuity: In McKay's office, Walt picks up 2 paper cups for coffee. In the next shot, he is holding a single cup. Continuity: Walt has Thao paint the neighbors house. The painted house is clearly visible at one stage. Near the end of the movie, when Walt is mowing his lawn, the new layer of paint disappears. Continuity: When Walt is in the bar and the priest wants to talk to him, he takes off his hat with right hand, and his left hand is down. In the next shot, both hands are on the table, and the hat is gone. Revealing mistakes: When Walt goes into the basement of his neighbor's house, where the teenagers are gathered, he leans against the drier. It rocks: the pivot points are the two catty-corner 'feet' on the diagonal. Twisting the right front one, the front pivot foot, in the direction he did, clockwise looking down on the screw from his perspective, would actually raise that foot more, not lower, which would stop the drier from rocking. Continuity: SPOILER: After Sue is raped, Walt comes home and punches through his cupboard doors. The next day, when he is sitting in the kitchen with Thao, the cupboards in the background are undamaged. FAIR: While Walt is on the phone with his son, the medical forms show Detroit, and a Michigan ZIP code, but lists the state as California. If you look closely, the California address is Walt's brother, as next of kin. FAIR: It is raining when Walt works with Thao, but the blue sky is reflected in the house windows. Sometimes large patches of blue sky appear during rainfall. FAIR: When Walt touches the little girl's head, the Hmong react very negatively, and Sue tells him that is wrong. Several scenes earlier, Kho Khue patted the baby's head, and no one reacted. Certain elders have the right to touch people on the head, including an elder shaman performing a soul-calling ceremony during a birth celebration. Also, when Sue musses Thao's hair in the back yard, she musses the side of his head, behind his ear, not the top. Continuity: When the Hmong gangbangers drive up to the Mexican gangbangers, Spider drives, forward, then drives in reverse without changing gears. Then a break in the scene shows his car's backup lights. PLOT: When Walt rescues Sue and Trey from the three thugs, he tells Trey that he should not have said "bro" to them. This would have been impossible for him to know; he pulled up to the stop sign after the incident. Revealing mistakes: The sides of the folding chairs flip by the time Walt takes the 2 folding chairs from the basement to the upstairs; the curvatures of the chairs clearly show this. CHAR: When the Hmong ladies feed Walt in Sue's kitchen, Sue's mother Vu puts a large spoon into a bowl of salad, then moves to transfer the contents to Walt's plate, even though most of the salad fell out of the spoon back into the bowl. Either the actress either didn't notice, or she decided to keep going with the scene. FAIR: In the church, Walt's grandchildren genuflect (kneel briefly and make sign of the cross while facing the altar). In the Catholic religion, the cross is made with the right hand. The granddaughter crosses herself with her left hand. However, the grandchildren were established as disrespectful, both in attire and behavior (one even parodies the spoken prayer), so they could very likely use the wrong hand. Continuity: There is a scene during the reception for Walt's wife, at the house. From the inside, looking through the front door, the sun is seen as shining strongly. However, when they go outside (next scene), it is cloudy. CHAR: Although not specifically stated, Walt appears to have lived in the house for many years. He also says he "put the steering column" in his Gran Torino. Gran Torinos were never produced in the Detroit area. CHAR: The front license plate on Walt's truck is missing. Michigan doesn't require a front plate, but it looks it was recently removed. That wouldn't make sense, since he likely bought the truck new. CHAR: Walt visits his doctor's office in February. The calendar is open to June. Continuity: In the beginning we see that the houses around Walt need painting. At 1:11:00, while the kid is gardening, we see the backs of the three houses next to Walt's that don't need paint. Continuity: When Walt rescues Sue and Trey from the three thugs, Sue and Walt drive away. If you watch the buildings in the background, they drive by the same school more than once. CHAR: SPOILER: When Father Janovich is hearing Walt's confession, he's not wearing a "stole". Unless Catholic doctrine has changed, priests always carry a stole and wear it while hearing confession. It's also possible Janovich intentionally didn't wear the stole since he was anticipating Walt admitting to murder or intending to commit murder, and didn't want to be compromised having knowledge of a crime, meaning he didn't absolve Walt of his sins. Fact errors: Walt's medical form lists date of birth as February 1930. When his family celebrates his birthday with him, the grass is green, and he joins his neighbors for a cookout. That isn't February in Detroit. CHAR: The medical forms list Walt's address as 5962 Delco St. When Walt stands on his porch, his house number is 238. CHAR: Walt mispronounces "First Cavalry" as "First Calvary." Although this is a common mistake among civilians, no veteran of the 1st Cavalry Division would ever make this mistake. Continuity: The cigarette burn on Thao's face changes several times. Fact errors: Kowalski's son gives him a Walker amplified phone, so the curly handset cord should be plugged into the side, not the back. |

Walt Kowalski: I confess that I have no desire to confess. Father Janovich: I know you're close to these people, but this pisses me off, Mr. Kowalski. Walt Kowalski: Where's Dr. Feldman, my regular doctor? Dr. Chang: Dr. Feldman retired three years ago, I'm his replacement, Dr. Chu. Sue Lor: Oh great, another asshole with an Asian girl fetish. God, this is getting so old. Thao Vang Lor: [Walt's smoking] You should quit. Those things are bad for you. Walt Kowalski: Yeah? So's being in a gang. Thao Vang Lor: They were going to take me away. They're pissed because I blew my first initiation. Walt Kowalski: Yeah, you're a real pussy for wanting to hang out with that gang. What was your initiation anyway? [Thao gestures at the car] My Gran Torino? Walt Kowalski: You know, Thao and Sue are never going to find peace in this world as long as that gang's around. Walt Kowalski: [about Thao] I don't care about him. Sue Lor: You hang out with him, you teach him to fix things, you saved him from that fucked cousin of ours. Walt Kowalski: Watch your language, lady. Sue Lor: And you're a better man to him than our own father was. You're a good man. Sue Lor: Kind of ironic, isn't it? Walt Kowalski: What is? Sue Lor: Thao washing your car after he tried to steal it. Walt Kowalski: And if he misses a spot, he has to do it all over again. Walt Kowalski: [to Father Janovich] The thing that haunts a guy is the stuff he wasn't ordered to do. Father Janovich: What are you gonna do, Walt? Walt Kowalski: Whatever it is, they won't have a chance. Father Janovich: What can I do for you Walt? Walt Kowalski: I'm here for confession. Father Janovich: Holy Jesus, what did you do? Walt Kowalski: Relax, zipperhead. I'm not gonna shoot you. I'd look down too, if I was you. You know, I knew you were a dipshit the first time I ever saw you. Then I thought you were worse with women than stealing cars... Toad. Thao Vang Lor: It's Thao. Walt Kowalski: What? Thao Vang Lor: It's not Toad, my name is Thao. Walt Kowalski: Yeah, well, you were blowing it with that girl who was there. Not that I give two shits about a toad like you. Thao Vang Lor: You don't know what you're talking about. Walt Kowalski: You're wrong, eggroll, I know exactly what I'm talking about. I may not be the most pleasant person to be around, but I got the best woman who was ever on this planet to marry me. I worked at it, it was the best thing ever happened to me. Hands down. But you, you know, you're letting Click-Clack, Ding-Dong and Charlie Chan just walk out with Miss What's-her-face. She likes you, you know? Though I don't know why! Thao Vang Lor: Who? Walt Kowalski: Yum Yum. You know, the girl in the purple sweater. She's been looking at you all day, stupid! Thao Vang Lor: You mean Youa? Walt Kowalski: Yeah... Yum Yum... yeah... nice girl... nice girl, very charming girl... I talked with her... yeah. But you, you just let her walk out right out with the Three Stooges. And you know why? 'Cause you're a big fat pussy. Well, I gotta go. Good day, pussycake. Walt Kowalski: [to Father Janovich] I think you're an overeducated 27-year-old virgin who likes to hold the hands of superstitious old ladies and promise them everlasting life. Walt Kowalski: [reading aloud from the newspaper] Your birthday today, Daisy. This year you have to make a choice between two life paths. Second chances comes your way. Extraordinary events culminate in what might seem to be an anticlimax. Your lucky numbers are 84, 23, 11, 78, and 99. What a load of shit. Walt Kowalski: Now you just gotta learn how guys talk. You just listen to the way Martin and I banter it back and forth. You OK? You're ready? Thao Vang Lor: Sir! Walt Kowalski: Alright let's go in... Barber Martin: Perfect! A Polak and AND a Chink! Walt Kowalski: How ya doing Martin, you crazy Italian prick? Barber Martin: Walts! You cheap bastard! I should have known you'd come in, I was having such a pleasant day! Walt Kowalski: What'd you do? You ruse some poor blind guy out of his money? Gave him the wrong change? Barber Martin: Who's the Nip? Walt Kowalski: Ohh... He's a pussy kid from next door. I'm trying to man him up a little bit... You see kid, now that's how guys talk to one another. Thao Vang Lor: They do? Barber Martin: What, you got shit on your ribs? Walt Kowalski: Now you go out and come back in and talk to him like a man, like a REAL man. Come on! Get your ass outta here! Come on back now. [to Martin] Sorry about this. Thao Vang Lor: What's up ya old Italian prick? Barber Martin: [pointing rifle at Thao] Get out of my shop before I blow your head off, you goddamn dick sucker! Go! Walt Kowalski: Jezus Christ, Holy Shit! Hehe. Take it easy, take it easy! [to Thao] What the hell are you doing? Have you lost your mind? Thao Vang Lor: But that's what you said. That's what you said men say. Walt Kowalski: You don't just come in and insult the man in his own shop! You just don't do that. What happens if you meet some stranger? You get the wrong one, he's gonna blow your gook head right off! Thao Vang Lor: What should I have said then? Barber Martin: Well... why don't you start with... eeehm... Hi or Hello... Walt Kowalski: Yeah, just come in and say... eeeehm... Sir, I'd like a haircut if you have the time. Barber Martin: Yeah, be polite, but don't kiss ass. Walt Kowalski: In fact you could talk about a construction job you just came from and bitch about your girlfriend and your car. Barber Martin: eeeehm... Son of a bitch, I just got my brakes fixed and eeehmm those son of bitches really nailed me, I mean they screwed me right in the ass! Walt Kowalski: Yeah, don't swear AT the guy, just talk about people who are not in the room... eeeh... you could talk about your boss... eeeh... making you work extra time when there is bowling night. Barber Martin: Right, or... eeeh... my old lady bitches for two goddamn hours about how... eeeeh... they don't take expired coupons at the grocery stores. And the minute I turn on the fucking game, she starts crying how we never talk! Walt Kowalski: [Walt is trying to "man" up Thao] Now go out and talk to him, and it ain't rocket science for Christ's sake. Thao Vang Lor: Yeah, but I don't have a job, a car, or a girlfriend. Barber Martin: Jesus. I shoulda blown his head off when I had the chance. Walt Kowalski: Yeah. Maybe so. [last lines] Lawyer: [reading from Walt's will] And I'd like to leave my 1972 Gran Torino to... [the lawyer pauses and looks up at Ashley, who smiles expectantly] Lawyer: ...my friend... Thao Vang Lor. On the condition that you don't chop-top the roof like one of those beaners, don't paint any idiotic flames on it like some white trash hillbilly, and don't put a big, gay spoiler on the rear end like you see on all the other zipperheads' cars. It just looks like hell. If you can refrain from doing any of that... it's yours. Mitch Kowalski: Look at the way the old man glared at Ashley, can't even tone it down for Mom's funeral. Steve Kowalski: What do you expect?, Dad's still living in the 50's, he expects his granddaughter to dress a little more modestly. Mitch Kowalski: Yeah, well your kid's earing a Lions jersey, I'm sure Dad appreciates that! Steve Kowalski: The point I'm trying to make is that there's nothing anyone can do that won't disappoint the old man, it's inevitable. Father Janovich: [eulogizing Walt] Walt Kowalski once said to me that I knew nothing about life or death, because I was an over-educated, 27-year-old virgin who held the hand of superstitious old women and promised them eternity. [the congregation chuckles politely and somberly] Father Janovich: Walt definitely had no problem calling it like he saw it. But he was right. I knew really nothing about life or death, until I got to know Walt... and boy, did I learn. Walt Kowalski: Get your ofay paddy ass on down the road. [first lines] Al: God, I am sorry for Dorothy, Walt. She was a real peach. Walt Kowalski: Thanks for coming, Al. Walt Kowalski: [Walt has just gotten Thao a job from his Irish friend] Come on, Zipperhead. We'll leave the mick here to play with himself. Walt Kowalski: You got your whole life ahead of you, but for me, I finish things. Walt Kowalski: [Looking at the elderly Hmong woman next door] The old hag hates my guts! Walt Kowalski: [to Thao] Have some respect, zipperhead. We're in mourning here. Father Janovich: Go in peace. Walt Kowalski: Oh, I am at peace. Father Janovich: What is this thing called life? Sue Lor: Hmong girls over here fit in better. The girls go to college and the boys go to jail. Sue Lor: All the people in this house are very traditional. Number one: never touch a Hmong person on the head. Not even a child. The Hmong people believe that the soul resides on the head, so don't do that. Walt Kowalski: Well... Sounds dumb, but fine. Sue Lor: Yeah, and a lot of Hmong people consider looking someone in the eye to be very rude! That's why they look away when you look at them. Walt Kowalski: Yeah. Anything else? Sue Lor: Yeah... some Hmong people tend to smile or grin, when they're yelled at. It's a cultural thing, it expresses embarrassment or insecurity. It's not that they're laughing at you or anything. Walt Kowalski: Right, you people are nuts. Walt Kowalski: [in a rage over his responsibility for Sue's rape] You rotten fuck... [begins punching the doorframe] Walt Kowalski: You rotten fuck! [overturns his kitchen table] Walt Kowalski: *YOU ROTTEN FUCK!* [drives his fist through the plate glass cabinetry] Walt Kowalski: Hey Kennedy: You drunken Irish goon, how the hell are ya? Tim Kennedy: I'm shitty, but who's gonna listen? Walt Kowalski: Not me, that's for sure [Kowalski poors some coffee from Kennedy's coffee maker] Tim Kennedy: [Sarcastic] Oh, uh, help yourself there, Walt. You dumb Pollack. |
