Matthew’s job as an advertising exec brings him back to Chicago and soon the past begins to haunt him again.  Diane Kruger stars as “Lisa,” the girlfriend and Rose Byrne plays an obsessed woman who holds the key to Lisa’s disappearance.  Matthew Lillard (“Luke”) and Jessica Paré (“Rebecca”) round out the cast.  Composer Cliff Martinez’s score paints a canvas of nostalgia, heartbreak and determination to guide viewers along as the mystery unfolds through many separated puzzle pieces.

‘Fame’ Anniversary, Plus Watch Our Music Videos

Fame, the original 1980 film musical starring Debbie Allen, Gene Anthony Ray and Lee Curreri, portrayed the individual trials and tribulations of highly-gifted students who attended a performing arts high school in New York City.  The film also spawned a long-running TV show (1982) and a stage musical.  Lakeshore Records released a series of Fame soundtracks to the 2009 film remake (watch it on iTunes), which features a score album by Academy Award-nominated Composer Mark Isham (A River Runs Through It, Warrior), songs performed by Naturi Naughton (Lifetime’s The Client List) and a whole new generation of exceptionally talented performers.

Debbie Allen is the only cast member to appear in the original, TV and 2009 productions of Fame.  The internal struggle to “make it” and fight through self doubt is as relevant now as it was back in 1980, and you’ll hear it in the music on Lakeshore RecordsFame albums.

Read this interview in which co-star James Marsen dishes on working with Elizabeth Banks.  It’s a fun read.

“I’ve known Elizabeth forever, and she’s always been a friend — there’s this Hollywood family that you kind of feel like you’re a part of, and when a movie like this comes along, you get to go play with some of your family. So, Elizabeth and I — or Banksy, as we call her — we got to have fun with this movie. It’s great when you already have a rapport established and you’re already comfortable around one another. She knows that I say Uncle pretty quick — so, she asked me to put a dress on.”
