Miley Cyrus comes of age in the touching and heart wrenching DVD release of The Last Song; coming to DVD and Blu-ray 4 August 2010.

Based on the novel of the same name by acclaimed author Nicholas Sparks, The Last Song follows the plight of seventeen year old Veronica 'Ronnie' Miller (Miley Cyrus) as she negotiates a summer in the Georgian home of her estranged father Steve (Greg Kinnear), and along the way discovers the joys, perils and pain of an adult awakening.

Having not spoken to her dad since his painful divorce from her mother Kim (Kelly Preston), Ronnie and her younger brother Jonah (Bobby Coleman) make the journey to the quiet beachside town of Tybee Island to reconnect with their dad over the summer.

A once successful Juilliard School professor and concert pianist, Steve is devoted now to a quiet life and the repair of the local church's ruined stained glass window after a fire he believes he caused. Silent about his battle with cancer, his focus now is also to mend his battered relationship with his kids.

With a rebellious reputation behind her, Ronnie's anger and hostility towards her parents and the world around her is clear. Once a child pianist prodigy under the tutorage of her father, Ronnie has been channelling her frustrations by partying in New York with her friends, a place she would much rather be than Tybee Island.

But when she meets heartbreaker Will (Australia's own Liam Hemsworth) while getting involved in the protecting of a Loggerhead Sea Turtle nest, Ronnie's world begins to turn around.

As Ronnie's life begins to slow down she finds herself falling in love, and the healing process with her dad also begins through their shared passion for music.

Sadly, Steve does not have much time as his body succumbs to the cancer he has been fighting, and with time disappearing fast Will confesses the secret that is burning inside of him. The church was not caused by Steve but by a friend of his. Ronnie is furious, and although her dad is forgiving, she does not want anything further to do with Will.

With the sun setting on summer, Ronnie decides to stay with her dad through to the end while her mother and brother head back to New York. Having now rediscovered her enthusiasm for piano and a refreshed desire to study at the Juilliard School, Ronnie decides to assist Steve with completing what will be his Last Song before his passing.

Steve's fight is soon over and Ronnie packs up Steve's belongings, including his piano, and heads back to New York. But pushing away her feelings for Will is not something so easily done. It is with Will's love, and a return to music through the memory of her dad, that a new verse in Ronnie's life begins.
