High Fidelity: Boy Fleabag
from Podstruck: A Rom-Com Rewind
CATEGORY: DOWN IN THE DUMPS Podstruck kicks off a new collection of rom-coms all about finding love after getting dumped with the John Cusack classic High Fidelity. We look back at this music-filled movie from 2000 with a 2026 lens - is the main character a total sexist jerk who deserves to die alone or is he a boyish cutie who just needs a little soul searching? We discuss whether Stephen Frears should have set this Nick Hornby adaptation in Seattle, the parallels to Say Anything, why Laura was miscast, how mad we are that the Zoe Kravitz TV show High Fidelity only got one season, and we pitch alternate endings for who Rob should've ended up with based on chemistry.
