A warmly witty account of the three years a man spent teaching life lessons to his high school dropout son by showing him the world's best (and occasionally worst) films. At the start of this brilliantly unconventional family memoir, David Gilmour is an unemployed movie critic trying to convince his fifteen-year-old son Jesse to do his homework. When he realizes Jesse is beginning to view learning as a loathsome chore, he offers his son an unconventional deal: Jesse could drop out of school, not work, not pay rent - but he must watch three movies a week of his father's choosing. Week by week, side by side, father and son watched everything from True Romance to Rosemary's Baby to Showgirls, and films by Akira Kurosawa, Martin Scorsese, Brian DePalma, Billy Wilder, among others. The movies got them talking about Jesse's life and his own romantic dramas, with mercurial girlfriends, heart-wrenching breakups, and the kind of obsessive yearning usually seen only in movies. Through their film club, father and son discussed girls, music, work, drugs, money, love, and friendship - and their own lives changed in surprising ways.Binding Type: Paperback

The cutting edge of trimmers
Size: 8.7-INCH
Great Product. Lots of power and does not drain the battery right a way. Few different attachments. I bought this for my wife Light, durable and easy to handle

Not bad for the price, trust the hardware not the brand
Used it one time, but will leave a review for those wondering.
Trimmer: Worked well for out of control vines and leafy hedge. It had enough power and was sharp enough to do the job I wanted which I'd say was small to medium size. I am sure overtime it'll dull, but for the initial tryout I'd give it a 9/10. Feels great in hand, light weight, has the ability to switch from top to side cutting.
Blower: Pretty good power, but chews through battery. Absolutely does the job and is very lightweight and easy to use. 10/10
Overall, for the package price I'd say it's worth it. Who knows how long these cheap devices will last, but for light to moderate yard and lawn care they should do the job. If you live on some farm in Iowa then you'll probably want something better and stronger. But for those with a small backyard in the subs somewhere it's more than capable.
Batteries are not included. I had used and picked up the aftermarket 8MAH max (DeWalt clones) 2-pack for $50.

Not good
Size: 8.7-INCH
Unfortunately, the shears component broke the very first time I used it, and I cannot find any replacement parts.

Great combo!
Great deal!!! Get this combo now. The Dewalt batteries clip in securely. The trimmer is light and did 12 large bushes and still had 2 bars on the battery. The blower is handy for quick patio blow offs, garage blow outs etc as compared to strapping on the big backpack blower. Both were beyond what I expected.
