Well, I've been waiting for someone else to post, but since no one else is going to allow me.

I know FREEPERS are willing to give Mr. Eastwood a pass because he once voted republican or because he is an economic conservative.

But to me issue of life trumps politics any day, and I'll never forgive "Dirty Harry" for doing a number on the Catholic Church and a bait and switch for his pro-euphanasia film Million Dollar Baby.

I've had FREEPERS tell me, well all the catholic details were simply there because it is based on a anti-Catholic story. To which I say Micheal Moore's movie was only Bush bashing because it was based on his screenplay.

But she makes her own luck ... to a point.

This is the closest the reviewer appears to come to even hinting at the euthanasia plot twist.

P.S. Plenty of FReepers have criticized Eastwood for this movie.

Was Dirty Harry a pro-shoot-people-in-the-head-with-a-44-magnum movie?

You're wrong. "The Sea Inside" is pro-euphanasia, "Million Dollar Baby" is a beware-what-you-wish-for story.

Know your movies.

You know, if I wanted to start a thread for movie haters to get on their soap boxes about how much they hate any movie that doesn't slavishly submit to their ideology, I wouldn't have posted a review that makes a point of NOT ruining the movie for people who have yet to see it. You are just miserable.

As for your claims to care so much about life, if that were true, you wouldn't work so hard to make other people's lives miserable.

You're as bad as the damned communists!

I wouldn't pay to see this piece of garbage - Clint Eastwood notwithstanding. Trash is trash.
