Gran Torino (Widescreen Edition) Gran Torino on DVD

Clint Eastwood’s Gran Torino is a powerful film filled with emotion, complexity and a poignant message.  It is the story of a war veteran with blatant prejudices who unexpectedly becomes involved with a Hmong family when the boy tries to steal the prized Gran Torino as part of a gang initiation.  Clint’s character, Walt, then takes the neighbor under his wing, so to speak, and an unlikely friendship develops where each character learns from the other.  A strong, emotional journey.

This adorable Twilight Ladybug soothes baby to sleep with a tranquil night sky projection on the ceiling and walls.  Place the Twilight Ladybug on a dresser or nightstand and let her work her magic.  Her shell illuminates for a reassuring nightlight effect  which your little one will appreciate long after the crib is packed away.  The Ladybug is a soft and cuddly friend in the daylight, and a soothing friend at night.  She actually projects 8 constellations on the ceiling and walls, which you can help your child identify with the included star guide.   You can choose from 3 color options – Sapphire Blue, Emerald Green and Ruby Red – for a different show every night.  Best of all, the Ladybug has an automatic shut-off, so you won’t have to remember to turn her off before you turn in for the night.
