I watched DeLovely twice this week. Now Cole Porter songs are living in my head. (Original Post) Stinky The Clown Mar 2013 OP
I always enjoyed Cole Porter songs. In_The_Wind Mar 2013 #1
Wonderful Cole Porter music with the elegance of Fred and Ginger. They just don't do that any more. Stinky The Clown Mar 2013 #3

That song was written for Astair.

Thanks for the clip.

Now Fred is alive in my head, too!

I have it on my iPad among a number of movies I can watch over and over and over. They are my inflight entertainment when i travel.

Short hauls get DeLovely, Chicago, Dirty Dancing, or Fatso.

Long hauls get The Godfather trilogy.

I've seen each of those movies so many times I can't count. With Ashley Judd recently in the news, I watched DeLovely then watched it the second time with Sparkly.

And when Ashley makes an entrance in that Cleopatra costume, she's just jaw-dropping gorgeous!

Lots of great scenes. Love Kevin Kline, love Ashley, love Cole Porter.

We went last year. Not sure we'll do it again this year. With the Shih-Tzu freshly clipped, if we go, we'll bring all three dogs along.
