New on DVD: The Red Turtle (and Two to Give Away)

Posted on April 30, 2017 at 9:34 pm

The Red Turtle,” new on DVD/Blu-ray this week, is a lyrical, mystical, almost-wordless story about a solitary castaway. Like all Studio Ghibli animations, it has a rich, complex portrayal of the natural world.

I’m delighted to have two copies to give away!  Send me an email at moviemom@moviemom.com with “Turtle” in the subject line and tell me what you’re looking forward to this summer.  Don’t forget your address!  (US addresses only) I’ll pick a winner on May 7, 2017.
