High Fidelity is a 2000 romantic comedy-drama film directed by Stephen Frears and starring John Cusack alongside an ensemble cast of Jack Black, Lisa Bonet, Joelle Carter, Joan Cusack, Sara Gilbert, Iben Hjejle, Todd Louiso, Lili Taylor, and Natasha Gregson Wagner. Based on the 1995 novel of the same name by Nick Hornby, with the setting moved from London to Chicago and the protagonist's name changed, the film follows Rob Gordon (Cusack), a record store owner who is recently single after a breakup with Laura (Hjejle), leading him to look back on his worst five breakups while attempting to reconcile with her. Hornby expressed surprise at how faithful the adaptation was, saying "at times, it appears to be a film in which John Cusack reads my book."
