Jeff Bridges (The Big Lebowski), Michelle Pfeiffer (What Lies Beneath) and Beau Bridges (The Descendants) enchant in this "lovely and fragile" (New York Magazine) tale about sibling musicians and the sultry singer who leads them to success. "Wry, sexy and enormously rewarding" (Jeffrey Lyons), The Fabulous Baker Boys is sizzling, slick entertainment that could "play just about everybody's strings" (Washington Post).

Jack and Frank Baker are stuck in a rut. Playing the same tired tunes night after night; the brothers are in desperate need of change. So when they meet a sultry songbird named Susie Diamond, their future starts to sparkle. But when life in the limelight brings old rivalries to the surface as Jack and Susie's relationship heats up, the Baker boys soon find their act - and their lives - growing more entertaining than either of them may be able to handle!

Press Quotes

The fun part is seeing it all play out, thanks to a standout cast and first-time director Steve Kloves' skill in handling them.

     —Variety

It's a film specializing in smoky, down-at-the-heels glamour, and in the kind of smart, slangy dialogue that sounds right without necessarily having much to say.

     —Janet Maslin, The New York Times

Much of the credit must go to the actors, with the Bridges brothers making a superb double act.

     —Geoff Andrew, Time Out

This is one of the movies they will use as a document, years from now, when they begin to trace the steps by which Pfeiffer became a great star.

     —Roger Ebert, The Chicago Sun Times

...fun and surprisingly emotionally engaging outing...both of the Bridges and Pfeiffer are in top form. Highly recommended.

     —Jeffrey Kauffmann, Blu-ray.com

The pleasure of this movie is watching Beau and Jeff Bridges interact as brothers Jack and Frank Baker in this entertaining feature.

     —Bob Bloom, Film Yap

The Fabulous Baker Boys is all its cracked up to be. Great performances abound.

     —Matt Brighton, Blu-ray Authority

Actually, the whole experience could be summed up as such, yes, a breath of beautiful, fresh air. Enjoy!

     —Exclusive Magazine

The critically acclaimed film sees an incredibly slick Jeff Bridges performance and a ravishing Michelle Pfeiffer light up the screen... This is easily the most complete and best home video release for The Fabulous Baker Boys.

     —Christopher Zabel, DoBlu.com

A career-changer for Michelle Pfeiffer, this musically-tinged rom-com offered a rare joint screen outing for the fabulous Bridges boys (Jeff and Beau).

     —Alonso Duralde, The Wrap

The film looks great, all three lead performances are excellent, and the musical numbers sizzle.

     —Mike Spring, Live for Film

All three stars are superb, with the siblings nailing the most poignant scene by serving up The Sherman Brothers’ “You’re Sixteen.”

     —Matt Brunson, The Film Frenzy

charming performances from your trio of lead performers.
