ELI5: Explain Like I'm 5

Vinyl (2000 film)

Okay kiddo, so you know how movies come on DVDs or Blu-rays nowadays? Well, before that, there was something called a VHS tape. And even before that, there was a thing called a vinyl record.

Vinyls are like really big CDs except they don't play music like a CD does. Instead, you have to put them on a special machine called a record player. It has a spinning plate and a needle that goes on the vinyl and makes the sound come out of the speakers.

The movie Vinyl is about a guy named JB who owns a record store. He really loves vinyls and thinks they're the best way to listen to music. But some other people in the movie don't think the same way. They want to get rid of all the vinyls and make everything digital instead.

So, JB goes on a mission to try and save the vinyls and make people see how great they are. Along the way, some stuff happens and he meets some interesting people. But you'll have to watch the movie to find out what happens next!

Overall, Vinyl is a movie that celebrates the love of music and shows that sometimes the old ways of doing things can still be really cool.
