Review of De-Lovely (2004) by Randy E — 25 Dec 2004

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=royalblue]I hope everyone enjoyed their holidays. I hope everyone got to spend it with family and friends. I am so happy tomorrow is Sunday because I really need to run a few erans haha. Its so odd for me to see all the stores closed on a Saturday day/night haha.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]Anyways I recently saw the movie De-Lovely starring Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd. Wow what a fantastic movie! I mean everyone and their mom has seen this movie. But I never see movies when they first come out, I always rent them! [/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]Anyways De-Lovely is about Cole Porter a musican who wrote lyrics with the accompaniment of a piano.[b] Kevin Kline[/b] potrayed Cole Porter to a tea. He truly captured the essence of Cole Porters struggle to find himself in his music. Cole Porter was bi- sexual and always had affairs with men. In the movie it was really amusing. It was just the way he acted when he did. The one liners and smirky sarcasm had me on the floor laughing. If you saw this particular film, you know what I mean.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1][b]Ashley Judd[/b] potrayed Cole Porters wife Linda Lee Porter. Ashley Judd did a remarkable job potraying Linda Porter. Linda Porter was a high strung wife who believed in her husband to make great music dispite his love affairs. His love affairs didn't seem to phase her. It only made her stronger to fight for her husbands love. [/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]They were constantly moving from one house to another always starting a new life in another city. Only in the movies does a new house come completely furnished with all the essentials lol.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]This movie potrayed Kevin Kline who spent 5 hrs in make up to portray an older version of Cole Porter. Older Version Cole Porter saw his autobiography through a play that all the characters in his life were potrayed right in front of him. Older Version Cole Porter sat with his friend Gabe aka Jonathen Pryice who played his good friend and confidant at a old theater. Cole Porter was about to see his life potrayed through someone elses. The actors had to imagine that Cole Porter was not there and to do what the director told them to do. Which I thought was amazing.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]This movie had all the essence of a good film in my personal opinion. I loved the acting, the scenary, costumes and story line. I love reading autobiographys about certain people. Maybe that is were my love of documentaries comes from. I love to learn the details of someones life and how they came to be.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]Go see De-Lovely, it will make you smile from ear to ear.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]I think I might venture out to get the soundtrack to this movie. [/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]It has turned me into a Cole Porter Fan.[/color][/font].

[font=Comic Sans MS][color=#4169e1]Well this certainly was long enough,[/color][/font].
