Music and Lyrics
Share the music with someone you love.
Directed by Marc Lawrence
Produced by Castle Rock Entertainment, Village Roadshow Pictures
A charming romantic comedy about a faded pop star finding redemption and love through songwriting, built on warmth, humor, and the redemptive power of second chances.
A washed-up '80s pop star gets a chance at a comeback when reigning pop diva Cora Corman invites him to write & 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.
