Rob Gordon (John Cusack) is the owner of a failing record store in Chicago, where he sells music the old-fashioned way — on vinyl. Although they have an encyclopedic knowledge of pop music and are consumed by the music scene, it’s of no help to Rob, whose needle skips the love groove when his long-time girlfriend, Laura (Iben Hjejle), walks out on him. As he examines his failed attempts at romance and happiness, the process finds him being dragged, kicking and screaming, into adulthood. The film also features Jack Black, Lisa Bonet, and Joan Cusack. (R, 2000, 1h 53m)
“The quirky High Fidelity really deserves being called the first must-see movie of the century.” – Lou Lumenick, NY Post
“High Fidelity has plenty going for it: The acting is great, the jokes are funny, but oh! the music. The songs are so well chosen — never the most obvious choices, but always interesting ones — that they sometimes catch you up short.” – Stephanie Zacharek, Salon.com
“The ultimate John Cusack movie” – Wesley Morris, San Francisco Examiner
