Though he always dreamed of a singing career, first-generation Italian-American Frank Gregorio (Chazz Palminteri) obeyed his parents' wishes and became a psychiatrist. But when a patient introduces Frank to karaoke, a long-buried passion is quickly resurrected. Co-starring Drea de Matteo as Frank's daughter Lana, who's going through a midlife crisis of her own, this big-hearted comedy premiered at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival.
Oscar® nominee Chazz Palminteri (Bullets Over Broadway, A Bronx Tale) stars as Frank Gregorio, a successful psychiatrist and loving family man. But when a patient introduces him to the world of karaoke, Frank begins to obsessively revisit his boyhood dream of becoming a professional singer. Add in his eldest daughter's (Emmy Award® winner Drea de Matteo of The Sopranos and Desperate Housewives) own midlife crisis, a relationship with a lounge-singing femme fatale (Linda Fiorentino of Men In Black and The Last Seduction), his youngest daughter's upcoming wedding, a precocious granddaughter, his aging father and very suspicious wife, then shake well. Can two generations of an Italian-American family pursue their second chances without making each other crazy? Maria Tucci co-stars in this poignant dramatic comedy about hitting all the right notes. From award-winning director Jeff Lipsky (Flannel Pajamas) and screenwriter Gina O'Brien.
