One Of My Top 5 Movies Of All Time

Rating: 10/10 (10 May 2009)

Great music, a John Cusack you want to hang out with and some very funny and touching scenes boost this film into my Top 5. Stephen Frears directs from Nick Hornby's book which provides a fascinating look at music and love in the Windy City (even though the book was not set in Chicago, it works).
John Cusack is great and his sister Joan has her obligatory role, but Jack Black's Barry steals every scene he is in. One of my favorite scenes of all time (in my Top 5!) is the confrontation in the record store with Tim Robbins' Ian / Ray – it is hilarious! High Fidelity should be in your Top 5 list as well – it is a must see!
