 In a biting
romantic comedy, Rob Gordon (John Cusack) is the owner of a semi-failing
record store in Chicago, where he sells music the old-fashioned
way -- on vinyl. He's a self-professed music junkie who spends
his days at Championship Vinyl with his two employees, Dick (Todd
Louiso) and Barry (Jack Black). Although they have an encyclopedic
knowledge of pop music and are consumed with 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. Stephen Frears directs.
