Official
Music video for 'When I Look At You' by Miley Cyrus off the soundtrack to
her new film The Last Song. The film stars Cyrus, Greg Kinnear, Kelly
Preston & Australian-born Liam Hemsworth and hits theaters Wednesday,
March 31.
The Last Song is an upcoming 2010 American coming-of-age drama film
developed alongside the Nicholas Sparks novel by the same name. The film
was directed by Julie Anne Robinson in her feature film directorial debut
and co-written by Sparks and Jeff Van Wie. The Last Song stars Miley
Cyrus, Greg Kinnear, Kelly Preston and Liam Hemsworth and follows a
troubled teenager as she reconnects with her estranged father and falls in
love during a summer in a quiet Southern beach town. The film will be
distributed by Touchstone Pictures, an alternative film label of The Walt
Disney Company.
Sparks was approached to write both the film's screenplay and the
novel. Sparks completed the screenplay in January 2009, prior to the
completion of the novel, making The Last Song his first script to be
optioned for film. The setting, originally North Carolina like the novel,
changed to Georgia after states campaigned for months to host production.
Upon beginning production in Tybee Island, Georgia and nearby Savannah,
The Last Song became the first movie to be shot and set in Tybee Island.
Filming lasted from June 15 to August 18, 2009 with much of it occurring
on the island's beach and pier. The Last Song was originally scheduled for
wide release on January 8, 2010, but has since been postponed to March 31,
2010.
At seventeen, Veronica "Ronnie" Miller (Miley Cyrus) remains
as rebellious and distant as she was the day after her parents' ugly
divorce and father's subsequent relocation to Georgia three years ago.[4]
Once a classical piano prodigy under the tutelage of her father, Steve
Miller (Greg Kinnear), Ronnie now rejects the instrument and has not
spoken to her father since he left. While Juilliard School has been
interested in her since she was young, Ronnie refuses to attend.
Now, Steve is given the chance to reconnect with his estranged daughter
when her mother, Kim (Kelly Preston) sends the rebellious teen and her
younger brother, Jonah (Bobby Coleman), to spend the summer with him.
Steve, a former Juilliard School professor and concert pianist, now lives
a quiet life in Tybee Island, the small Georgia beach town where he grew
up, working on a stained glass window for the local church to replace the
one the church lost in a fire.
Upon arrival, Ronnie is miserable, hostile and defensive toward all
those around her, including handsome, popular Will Blakelee (Liam
Hemsworth) - until, after both she and Will become involved in protecting
a Loggerhead Sea Turtle nest, she discovers he is deeper than she
believed. As Ronnie falls in love with Will, she also manages to bond with
her father Steve through the one thing they have in common- music.
