Million Dollar Baby

In Million Dollar Baby Clint Eastwood played a typical role similar to his in Gran Torino. He is playing an angry old man again who trains and manages fighters, and eventually gives into training a determined annoying voiced girl. Again in this movie Clint eastwood plays a character who is not close with his family. This time he has a bad relationship with his daughter who he never writes, and in Gran Torino he had a bad relationship with his kids and there families, which makes him seem lonely in each film. Also like in Gran Torino Clint eastwoods character goes to church but doesn't seem to be religious, and his pastors tells him in this movie "I have no idea why you come to church".

In both the Clint Eastwood movies we watched now I noticed that violence, religion, race, and family were main parts to the story. In this movie the narrator says that "people love violence", this movie had a different kind of violence than Gran Torino, but its a focus in both movies. His character goes to church in each movie but isn't very religious. Race and racism was in both movies too. In Gran Torino it was the gooks and spooks, and in Million dollar the character Danger pointed out to a black fighter they're different. I dont know what Clint Eastwood is trying to say about in family maybe that without them your lonely or something, but in Million Dollar Baby and Gran Torino he doesn't have much of a relationship with his family.
