4º A/C: Gran Torino

Gran Torino, which we saw in our English classes before Christmas, shows the friendship between an old man, Walt Kowalsky, and a teenager, Thao Lor. The film also deals with issues such as racism, gang violence, family relationships and death. Who is your favourite character from the movie? Why? In your opinion, what is the best scene in the film? Why? Please, remember that you have to answer these questions by the end of Christmas holidays. Merry Christmas and happy new year!
