Duets

Duets (2000) — watch online on iFILM: a road-trip comedy-drama directed by Bruce Paltrow, with an ensemble of Gwyneth Paltrow, Huey Lewis, Paul Giamatti, Maria Bello, André Braugher, and Scott Speedman. Six people from different corners of America converge on Omaha for a national karaoke competition with a $5,000 prize.

The group includes a veteran karaoke hustler who just discovered he has a daughter, a burned-out salesman who walked out of his life mid-week, and several others with their own reasons to keep moving. Bruce Paltrow directed his own daughter Gwyneth here — their only film together. Karaoke works in the story as a pressure valve: characters say through song what they cannot bring themselves to say directly. Stream Duets on iFILM.
