Product Description FOR 31 YEARS IT’S BEEN JUST THE FABULOUS BAKER BOYS… BUT TIMES CHANGE. Jeff Bridges (The Big Lebowski), Michelle Pfeiffer (What Lies Beneath) and Beau Bridges (The Descendants) enchant in this “lovely and fragile” (New York Magazine) tale about sibling musicians and the sultry singer who leads them to success. "Wry, sexy and enormously rewarding" (Jeffrey Lyons), The Fabulous Baker Boys is sizzling, slick entertainment that could "play just about everybody's strings" (Washington Post). Jack and Frank Baker are stuck in a rut. Playing the same tired tunes night after night; the brothers are in desperate need of change. So when they meet a sultry songbird named Susie Diamond, their future starts to sparkle. But when life in the limelight brings old rivalries to the surface as Jack and Susie's relationship heats up, the Baker boys soon find their act - and their lives - growing more entertaining than either of them may be able to handle!

Review The fun part is seeing it all play out, thanks to a standout cast and first-time director Steve Kloves' skill in handling them. --Variety It's a film specializing in smoky, down-at-the-heels glamour, and in the kind of smart, slangy dialogue that sounds right without necessarily having much to say. --Janet Maslin, The New York Times This is one of the movies they will use as a document, years from now, when they begin to trace the steps by which Pfeiffer became a great star. --Roger Ebert, Chicago Sun-Times

Description

Arlis Sweeney (Dennis Quaid) leads a life as simple and unchanging as his native West Texas plains. He stocks vending machines, moving from town to town and from one familiar lover to another. Kay Davies (Meg Ryan) also calls the road her home. Running from a broken marriage, she doesn't know where she's headed, but any place is better than where she's been. Fate brings them together and gives them a future, until a figure from the past--Arlis's father (James Caan)--awakens a memory as deep and dark as a grave: a family history written in cold blood. From the writer of The Fabulous Baker Boys and Wonder Boys, and co-starring Gwyneth Paltrow in her first major feature film role.
