De-Lovely

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,” ”Its De-Lovely,” and ”Night and Day,” Porters elegant, excessive past comes to light - including his deeply complicated relationship with his wife and muse, Linda Lee Porter. Educated fleas in this vale of tears: the marriage of Cole Porter and his wife, Linda, told loosely as a three-act review with Porter watching. In act one, Porter and Linda meet in Paris, fall in love and marry with her knowledge of his being gay; on to Venice and New York, where parties, music, and their love lead him to decide to compose professionally. Act two is New York and Hollywood, where success awaits, as do an increasing number of young men who take Porters attention from Linda and leave her lonely and apart. Act three begins with a crippling accident that brings Linda back to Porters side, their attentiveness to each other renewed in his pain and her illness.
