High Fidelity (2000) | Ep. 9 - Part 1

Top five reasons to listen are coming, but first: how do you move a very British novel to Chicago without losing its soul? Luke, Westy, and Matt begin the story.

In Part 1 we cover the film's opening, director Stephen Frears, the cast, and the second act — including John Cusack breaking the fourth wall as Rob, the relocation from London, and Jack Black stealing scenes as Barry.

The top five heartbreaks aren't all counted yet. Part 2 finishes the list: crew, finale, reception, legacy. Live now.
