Entertainment Editors & Film/Internet Writers

ADVISORY...for Wednesday Wednesday: see week.  (March 22)

--(ENTERTAINMENT WIRE)

WHO:     Jack Black, who plays the acerbic Barry in Touchstone's "High
         Fidelity," has appeared in a wide variety of motion pictures
         and television programs. Among his feature film credits are
         Tim Robbins' "Cradle Will Rock," "Dead Man Walking" and "Bob
         Roberts." Black also starred in "Enemy of the State," "The
         Jackal," "Mars Attacks!" and "The Cable Guy," and recently
         completed a role in "Jesus' Son."

         Black is also the lead singer for Tenacious D. The band
         recently completed the first leg of their sold-out world
         tour.

WHAT:    To celebrate the forthcoming release of Touchstone Pictures'
         "High Fidelity," movies.com hosts a special online chat with
         the film's co-star Jack Black.

         In this biting romantic comedy based on the popular Nick
         Hornby novel, Rob Gordon (John Cusack) owns a semi-failing
         record store in Chicago, where he sells music the
         old-fashioned way -- on vinyl. A self-professed music junkie,
         he spends his days at Championship Vinyl with his two
         employees, Dick (Todd Louiso) and Barry (Black). His
         encyclopedic knowledge of pop music is of no help to Rob,
         whose needle skips the love groove when his longtime
         girlfriend, Laura (Iben Hjejle), walks out on him. As he
         examines his failed attempts at romance and happiness, the
         process finds him being dragged kicking and screaming into
         adulthood.

WHEN:    Wednesday, March 22
         9 p.m. ET/6 p.m. PT
