Movie Opens Nationwide Feb. 14
Alex Fletcher (Hugh Grant) is a washed-up '80s pop star who's been reduced to working the nostalgia circuit at county fairs and amusement parks. However, the charismatic and talented musician gets a chance at a comeback when reigning pop diva, Cora Corman, invites him to write and record a duet with her.But there's a problem -- Alex hasn't written a song in years, he's never written lyrics -- and he has to come up with a hit in a matter of days.Enter Sophie Fisher (Drew Barrymore), Alex's beguilingly quirky plant lady, whose flair for words strikes a chord with the struggling songwriter.On the rebound from a bad relationship with the newly famous novelist Sloan Cates (Campbell Scott), Sophie is reluctant to collaborate with anyone, especially commitment-phobe Alex.As their chemistry heats up at the piano and under it, Alex and Sophie will have to face their fears --and the music -- if they want to find the love and success they both deserve.The film also stars Brad Garrett as Alex's steadfast manager, Chris Riley, and Kristen Johnston as Sophie's sister, Rhonda -- who happens to be one of Alex's biggest fans.
