A long time writer at The New Yorker, Richard Brody writes a critic of the movie The Last Song on April 12th in 2010. Brody writes in this very short critic important facts that many people don't realize while watching the movie or reading the book. Miley Cyrus the main character in the movie; and teen pop sensation across the United States, lives a normal life in the movie. Brody emphasized that she is playing a character that has many problems, that she faces in real life situations. He doesn't forget to mention that she is a classical-piano prodigy; which for those who know her its exactly what Cyrus is. Brody doesn't forget to mention how the movie is worked up and has a beautiful ending. He also mentions the author of the book, The Last Song; Nicholas Sparks, and how he tends to be very sentimental and romantic in his works. Brody ends his article by explaining that each attribute and personality of the characters were wrapped all together into a amazing package; directed by Julie Anne Robinson.
In this article Brody wants to inform the readers and movie lovers how great the movie is and how well directed it was. He uses many examples and words to show his passion and how he liked it. By the tone of his wording and the pace he uses, he shows that the book and the movie where well put together and how everything in the end became a very good package. He shows this when he writes; "or all the lessons about taking proper action, Ronnie, as embodied by Cyrus, is strangely stolid and passive. Experience itself, bestowed upon the characters in neatly wrapped packages."
