In 1995, everyone had a VCR, music was sold in record stores, and the world-wide-web was a new found discovery. Businessman Jack Harris (Luke Wilson) had the perfect life – a beautiful family and a successful career fixing problem companies. Then he met Wayne Beering (Giovanni Ribisi) and Buck Dolby (Gabriel Macht), two genius but troubled men, who had invented the way adult entertainment is sold over the internet. When Jack agrees to help steer their business, he soon finds himself caught between a 23 year-old porn star and the FBI all the while becoming one of the wealthiest entrepreneurs of his time. Witness a story so outrageous, you won’t believe it’s true. A story that proves business is a lot like sex… getting in is easy, pulling out is hard.
Music heard in the movie and on the ABKCO soundtrack is integral to the film’s central narrative, reflecting moods and providing a sense of time and ambiance. The soundtrack offers “You Can’t Always Get What You Want” and “Sympathy For The Devil,” two classic Rolling Stones tracks from the ABKCO catalog, along with such diverse selections as “Buona Sera” by Louis Prima, Patsy Cline’s “Sweet Dreams” and “The Way You Move” by Outkast (featuring Sleepy Brown). Of special note is the original version of “Oye Como Va” by Tito Puente, “Body Rock” and “Honey”, two Moby selections, plus tracks from Tears for Fears, OMC, J. Geils Band, Hall & Oats, George Thorogood and 2Pac. The soundtrack also inclues two score tracks by composer Brian Tyler.
