Duets
“Duets” is a road-trip comedy about six strangers from all walks of life who have one thing in common – a passion for karaoke. The cast of characters consists of a small-town singer (Maria Bello) a promiscuous woman who trades sex for favors, a down-on-his-luck young cab driver (Scott Speedman) searching for the meaning of life, an ex-con (Andre Braugher) with the past of a killer but the voice of an angel, a salesman (Paul Giamatti) having a nervous breakdown, and an innocent Vegas showgirl (Gwyneth Paltrow) who discovers a remarkable connection to a seasoned karaoke hustler (Huey Lewis). As they converge on the $5,000 Grand Prize Karaoke Contest in Omaha, Nebraska, they collide with each other in the raucous world of karaoke bars that link the interstates of Middle America.
