There's another version of events which is up on a few sites. Gotta say this one sounds a lot more likely:
Quote:
Our source tells us this will be a simple drama about a rural bigot (Eastwood) who finds his outlook on life changed after a family of Hmong immigrants move in to the home next to his own, striking up a friendship with the family's teenaged son over the older man's now-classic car.

FilmJerk.com - News - Eastwood's "Torino" might be dirty, but it ain't Harry
From Hollywood Elswhere:
Quote:
Sorry for the delay...didn't check back after I posted...Film Jerk is spot on in it's logline. The character Walt seems tailor made for Clint. Short, gruff lines (many to his old dog Daisy). There's even a young priest Walt gets to curse out throughout. A simple straight forward story told in quiet, yet compelling writing. The entire movie rests on Clint's back and the relationship he builds with his young Asian neighbor Tao.
