About this product

Product Information

Directed by Irwin Winkler, DE-LOVELY depicts the life of the great American composer Cole Porter (Kevin Kline). Despite his sexual preference for men, Porter found inspiration and virtually unconditional love with Linda Lee (Ashley Judd). Told in flashback as Porter is near death, the film follows the Porters' fabulous, unconventional relationship from their meeting in Paris to their subsequent moves to Venice, New York, Hollywood, and Williamstown, as well as the many stops along the way. Kline perfectly captures the Porters' zest for life and seemingly inexhaustible need for love. Classic tunes such as Let's Do It, Let's Fall in Love, Let's Misbehave, and Anything Goes take on whole new meanings when considered in the context of Porter and Lee's life together. Contemporary musical performers, including Alanis Morissette, Natalie Cole, Robbie Williams, Elvis Costello, and Sheryl Crow, appear in the film singing Porter standards, a device that works surprisingly well.

    Fabulous

    This is surely one of the best musical movies of all time. The story is rich and true, the characters complex but engaging, the sets and music are wonderful (Cole Porter - what else could they be?), the costumes spot on, and the acting deeply tender and valid. So excellent. It's a keeper.

  • De-Lovely (DVD, 2004)

    When the movie came out at the theaters I went to see it and was greatly disappointed due to the contents because I grew up with the Cary Grant film of Cole Porter which I now know was totaly "Hollywood" also the movie theater screwed up the showing and I did get my money back. Even though no bio film is true absolute facts "De-Lovely" made me research Cole Porter's life and understand his music. I also enjoyed his music sung by newer vocalists and decided to buy the cd for future enjoyment.

  • I enjoyed hearing so many great C.P. tunes. And the Ethel Merman gal was certainly special -- if only briefly . A necessity for a real Porter fan!

    I enjoyed hearing so many great Cole Porter tunes. And the Ethel Merman gal was certainly special -- if only briefly. The story of his life was at times sad, but true and not sugar coated. A necessity for a real Cole Porter fan!

  • A love story with sad ending.

    This is such an love story. The music is very good but the song composer's life is a mess. I really feel sorry for him. I guess that means the movie is done very well.

  • De Lovely is De Magnificent

    This movie is very underrated with critics. It deserves much better than it got. Kevin Kline is great as the real Cole Porter with all his blemishes intact--especially his homosexual lifestyle hidden behind the true heroine of the movie, his wife Linda, also played wonderfully by Ashley Judd. The movie is sort of like an opera, showing Cole Porter from his beginnings as a bit player-entertainer at parties in Paris. It showcases many of his songs--some of which appear naturally in the story and others that are sung by some of the biggest musical stars of today. Sheryl Crow performs "Begin the Beguine." Alanis Morissete sings "Let's Do It." Elvis Costello sings the title song. We follow Cole and Linda from their courtship in Paris, to their years in Venice where he met and worked ...
