Storyline
Plot Summary |
De-Lovely is an original musical portrait of American composer Cole Porter, filled with his unforgettable songs. In the film, Porter is looking back on his life as if it was one of his spectacular stage shows, with the people and events of his life becoming the actors and action onstage. Through elaborate production numbers and popular hits like "Anything Goes," "It's De-Lovely," and "Night and Day," Porter's elegant, excessive past comes to light - including his deeply complicated relationship with his wife and muse, Linda Lee Porter.

Did You Know?
Trivia | Many scenes in the film are actually one continuous shot. The scene where Cole is visiting the gentleman's club during the song "Love For Sale" is a good example. The scene is supposed to be representing three different times where Cole was in the club. Most of the dancers are costume personnel who would perform costume changes on other actors and themselves and then walk back into the shot. Even the singer changes hair pieces and earrings in this shot. See more » |
Goofs | The scene depicting the song "So In Love" on the opening night of "Kiss Me, Kate" depicts the song as a duet between the two leads during the show's Shakespearean play-within-a-play. In "Kiss Me, Kate," "So In Love" is not a duet. Both of the leads do sing solo versions of the song at a different point in the show, however neither takes place in the play-within-a-play.

Quotes |
Monty Woolley:
Cole, he's only an actor but he still may be right. He's tried it 7 times already, the song's a problem. Cole Porter: The song is not a problem, it's a challenge. Jack! Jack my boy, how can I help you? Ask me anything. Jack: Write another song. Cole Porter: Oh God, that cuts me right to the quick. I know it's God awful but it's the best I can do and we open in three days. Jack: Where do you get your ideas? Cole Porter: I get them all from a little Chinese man in Poughkeepsie. Jack: Mr Porter, the song goes so high and so low it's impossible. Cole Porter: It's not impossible. I wrote this with you in mind, I can sing it and I have a range of three notes. See more » |
