Synopsis:
Starring
Gwyneth
Paltrow
and
directed
by
her
father,
Bruce
Paltrow
(A
LITTLE
SEX),
DUETS
dives
headfirst
into
the
bizarre
musical
world
of
karaoke.
Six
amateur
singers
gather
for
the
Grand
Prize
Karaoke
Contest
in
Omaha,
Nebraska,
each
performing
for
their
own
personal
reasons
and
displaying
his
or
her
own
unique
and
special
talents.
Among
the
motley
crew
are
a
karaoke
hustler
(Huey
Lewis)
and
his
estranged
showgirl
daughter
(Paltrow),
a
miserable
white-collar
executive
(Paul
Giamatti
from
SAVING
PRIVATE
RYAN
and
PRIVATE
PARTS),
and
a
sweet-voiced
ex-con
(Andrew
Braugher)--all
who
stand
a
chance
at
the
$5,000
prize.
Paltrow
showcases
her
surprisingly
strong
singing
voice
in
a
duet
with
Huey
Lewis,
as
well
as
in
a
smashing
rendition
of
Paula
Abdul's
"Forever
Your
Girl."
