Just got done watching this and thought it was really good... the story of Cole Porter starring Kevin Kline and Ashley Judd. Great music and performances, cool cameos by current singers doing his songs (Diana Krall, Elvis Costello, Vivian Green, Natalie Cole, Alanis Morrisette, Sheryl Crow and others). Just a well-made flick. No action to speak of but an interesting story.

    never heard of it, but I like Porter's music, so I'll definitely check it out...

    I think it just came out on video this week...and I just ran out and bought the soundtrack. I certainly new the name Cole Porter going into it but didn't know much about the person...and had no idea that I would know most every song in the film.
