Music and Lyrics

Fading 80s pop pin-up Alex (Hugh Grant) could be back in the limelight if he can come up with the next hit for chart-topping teen queen Cora. But while the melodies come easily, he can never find the right words. Luckily, he finds a natural-born lyricist in Sophie (Drew Barrymore) - the lady who, er, waters his plants. It may have the hum of familiarity, but the two romcom maestros hit enough high notes to make it a light and engaging duet.
