Coyote Ugly

Out UK/Ireland: 20 October 2000

Certificate: 12

Stars: Piper Perabo, Adam Garcia, Maria Bello, Izabella Miko

Director: David McNally

Graced with a velvet voice, 21-year-old Violet Sanford (Piper Perabo) decides to leave her overprotective father Bill (John Goodman), and a home in the suburbs for a new life in New York and the chance to pursue her dream of becoming a songwriter.

Desperate and broke, she spends her time diligently - writing and recording her original material, making the rounds at every label and independent record producer in town, all the while hunting for a job to pay the rent.

She even attempts an open mike night at a local club only to find that the stage fright, which had always plagued her in the past, still paralyzes her from performing her own songs in front of a crowd.

While pounding the pavement to distribute her tape she thinks she's found a club manager who is interested in her music, but instead finds a genuine fan and love struck admirer in a young chef named Kevin (Adam Garcia).

After endless rejections Violet lands a day-job at Coyote Ugly, a saloon run by the notoriously iron-fisted maiden, Lil (Maria Bellow).

Under the intoxicating influence of the bar, a watering hole that pulls in capacity crowds, Violet breaks out of her shell, using her voice and sex appeal to seize the spotlight.
