High Fidelity is a 2000 romantic comedy-drama film directed by Stephen Frears, based on the 1995 novel of the same name by Nick Hornby. The film follows the story of Rob Gordon (played by John Cusack), a music-obsessed record store owner who is struggling to come to terms with a recent breakup.
Throughout the film, Rob revisits his past relationships and tries to understand why they failed, while also dealing with the challenges of owning a record store that is on the brink of bankruptcy. He is joined by his quirky and opinionated employees, Barry (played by Jack Black) and Dick (played by Todd Louiso), as they navigate the ups and downs of love, life, and music.
The film is set in Chicago and features a soundtrack of classic rock and pop songs, which play a significant role in the film's storyline. The film is known for its witty dialogue, memorable characters, and unique approach to storytelling, which includes frequent fourth-wall-breaking moments and flashbacks.
