Directed by Larry Peerce

From Larry Peerce, the acclaimed director The Incident, Ash Wednesday, The Other Side of the Mountain and Two-Minute Warning, comes this rock ’n’ roll drama starring Grammy-winning superstar Rick Springfield (“Jessie’s Girl”) that heats up the screen with rousing music and romance. An incredible soundtrack featuring seven Springfield songs, including the hit, “Love Somebody,” as well as music by Peter Gabriel, Graham Parker and Nona Hendryx. Jamie Roberts (Springfield) is a rock star living the highlife when he falls for an intellectual child psychologist (Janet Eilber, Romantic Comedy) who only has ears for classical music. Opposites attract, but his jealous ex-girlfriend (Patti Hansen, They All Laughed) isn’t ready to give up so easily. Love is hard to find when the whole world is watching.

Blu-ray Extras Include:

NEW Audio Commentary by Entertainment Journalist and Author Bryan Reesman
