and Lyrics.
Poster & Still: Music and Lyrics
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. The charismatic and talented musician gets a
chance at a comeback when reigning 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,
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 co-stars Brad Garrett
as Alex’s steadfast manager, and Kristen Johnston as Sophie’s
sister, Rhonda. Newcomer Haley Bennett plays young, pop-princess Cora Corman.
