United States ) is a 2002 drama and comedy film about a struggling American rock band in theUnited Kingdom .Plot
When a rock band at the top of their game suddenly loses their leader, their direction becomes questionable. All the band members know is that the leader's clothes were found at the edge of a waterfront and he had not been seen since. To replace their missing leader, they hire a new bassist (
Alicia Silverstone ), who shakes up their thoughts of the band. But the biggest changes come when the band decides to go into seclusion to develop new songs and a new sound. They rent a mansion from an aristocratic couple (Peter O'Toole ,Joan Plowright ) who are in need of money. When the staff hired to be on hand when the band arrives do not show, the couple decides to act as the butler, Benson, and the cook, Margaret. The obvious conflicts between the two cultures occur, but a respect for each other gradually follows. Meanwhile, the band's recording company is trying to trick them into signing a contract that obliges them to make the music as the company requires. Towards the end of the film, the status quo gets further shaken when the original band leader shows up and admits that his disappearance had been a planned publicity stunt.Cast
