I've seen so many comments here about Kevin Kline's voice in this song, but I have to disagree--I think Kline's voice is what MAKES this song so moving. Cole Porter wasn't a singer, he was a composer. And singing a freshly written tune for a musical is not the same as being a classically trained singer on stage performing it in full regalia and lighting. It's the intimacy of and heartbreak in Kline's voice as he's singing to Ashley Judd that moves one to tears. He is to be applauded for this beautiful rendition of this song.
Beautifully said. The fact that Kline sings his own creation directly to Judd (both of them so ill by this point that it makes the scene twice as heartbreaking to watch), and then inter-cuts it with the actual "Kiss Me Kate" performers makes it a positively bewitching sequence. Only Porter songs could create these kind of emotions.
Absolutely agree with your synopsis of Kline's vocal performance in this film, kendahke! His voice is precisely what makes the movie so "intimate" and tells the story behind the songs of Cole Porter. Ashley Judd was also very well cast in the movie to star opposite Kline. I loved the movie and will watch it again and again.
Movie critics so underappreciated this exceptional motion picture by Irwin Winkler. As others have commented: Kline and Judd deserved so well their award nominations.
I fell in love with Cole Porter and his music through this movie. Musical movie making at its best, capturing the emotions of all Porter's songs so accurately with its storyboard. This is a scene so hard to watch I was bawling 😭 and also the last scene - in the still of the night ohhh 😢😢
I believe this is the best rendition of this song. I, being an old fool, had to wipe my tears over and over again. Its a very haunting and tear-jerking song.
The best moment in the film, despite the fact that it always makes me cry. Kline and Judd are lovely as Cole Porter and Linda Lee Thomas Porter. They had the most fascinating union: a marriage of convenience, but loved each other unconditionally and ended up as true soul mates. Always lose it at 2:36, his voice cracking and their foreheads bump, destroys me every time. It takes the film from beautiful to singularly gorgeous.
Very well said, I agree 100%. Everytime I watch this movie it moves me the same. Beautiful, emotional with great music selection of Cole Porter's countless compositions. I cry everytime...
In this precise moment My grandpa passed away..I believe it was because he missed grandma soo much he wanted to see her again...That's how I imagine them right now...Looking in each others eyes...singing how much they loved for over 60 yrs!
"D'lovely" ranks among the most creative movie musicals ever crafted, It is a delight that does not wear out with repeated viewings. Great music (as in this clip), superb acting, a script with surprise, wit and elegance and a director, Irwin Winkler at the top of his game. Would that life in my suburb be like this film. Would that Any Thing Goes -- for real.
This is without question the best version of the song I have heard and I have heard so many. Most people oversing it turning it iinto opera but Kevin Kline nails it. I’m sure it’s what Cole Porter heard in his mind when he wrote it as he was no singer himself but he like to sing. It becomes a very touching love song the way Kevin Kline sings it. So if you’re looking for 1940s drama you won’t find it here you only find the heart of this touching song.
well i know the movie was ok but this scene made me cry so much esp. when he cracked because he wanted to cry tht wuz sad how it ended and i love this song and the movie... i will never get tired of watching or hearing it.
Forget life, forget strife, forget everything but the the melody & lyrics of this most beautiful song. It takes me to another place. The lyrics and harmony merge into tears every time I hear it. Close your eyes and lose yourself in the beautiful space and time of the music. God! what a great song. I think I'll play it again.
I saw this beautiful movie and the story made me cry and the songs are magnificent!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ashley Judd is divine and Kevin Kline sings beautifully!!!!
Rest in Peace, my sweet husband. You deserted me, but not by choice. Gone too young, too soon, too quickly. The children and I love you.... until and beyond the day I die.
I simply adore this song. First time I heard it was from Ella then I fell in love with K.D. Lang’s, but somehow is this rendition that breaks my heart ❤️
I thought the movie was great, this scene of course was great, it has special meaning to me. My father was very sick, we did not know he would pass away while watching this movie over and over again on Showtime.This was the last movie he saw. I believe it was no accident.
Thank you for posting this wonderful video. I loved this movie and this music. I feel terribly badly for those of modern generations who hear crude, atonal, dissonant noise and think it is music. Is it possible that mankind is actually DE-volving?
Yeah, I saw this movie in the theater with my late grandmother and she went crazy during this scene. Her husband was dying in a nursing home at the time.
Strange dear, but true dear When I'm close to you, dear The stars fill the sky So in love with you am I Even without you My arms fold about you You know darling why So in love with you am I In love with the night mysterious The night when you first were there In love with my joy delirious When I knew that you could care So taunt me, and hurt me Deceive me, desert me I'm yours, till I die So in love So in love So in love with you, my love... Am I....
cuanta nostalgia...pelicula y canciones ....del nacimiento de nina lya elisha la nostalgia de tu llegada a suelo dominicano....cuanto e de estranarte.... besos y abrazos mi nina bella.....te amo
I too stumbled on to the movie on Starz and I can tell you that I will be visiting here over and over again. It hit me because it is just how I feel about someone right now. The movie well it is a biopic but how can Kevin Klein and Jonathn Price not give a stellar perforance. It makes me realize that I need to continue to write and do my poems and stories. The reason is that if Cole Porter can be gone from this earth and still effect us means we should all find our own eternal greatness.
It Makes Me Cry Too, Every Time. Such A Great Film, Such A Great Cast, Such Musical Score & How Great Is Kevin Kline That Screenplay That Directing & Editing? One Of The Best Films Of All Time...
Times of elegance, good taste e nice views...people had class.....just like nowadays LOLOLOL.....and the music today sounds just like Porter....fortunally him, Berlin, Gershiwn, Rodgers are dead and dont have to hear the crap we hear today. Great video, great film.....and what a MUSIC!!!!
@SidFortune Thank you for your wonderful comment! This movie , the music and the actors are truly a work of art! I get chills and goose bumps when I listen to this beautiful music! You said it right on! Thank you:) Blanca NJ
I don't understand how this movie was not a major hit! Maybe it was a matter of timing, or poor marketing. And I don't understand why it lost money. Sadly, much more mediocre movies have gotten more acclaim than this gem. The casting is great, the musical performances spectacular, and Ashley Judd is positively luminous throughout the film. You just can't take your eyes off of her.
Did you find it? It's one of my all time favorites and I do NOT like musicals! This one is definitely an exception to that rule! :) Hope you found it! Enjoy ~
How can anyone write about this Cole Porter song and not use the word "haunting"? Probably the most haunting love song ever written..... [sigh] And Ashley Judd is the most beautiful "ill" person ever to grace the silver screen. I'd get sick with her any day. LOL
Thank you for posting, Jorge. This song is fabulous...I completely agree with kendahke about the Kevin Kline's performance for this musical...it is so intimate and moving. Just de-lovely..
This is very beautiful and moving but I would also highly recommend listening to “Goodbye Little Dream” as sung all too briefly in the film. It also is very moving if sung properly as in the original version !
Just watched this movie twice yesterday, first with my family and then with my friend Kailoa (kailoa36 on here). One word: Wow! This scene makes me cry every time.
Heartbreakingly Beautiful ❤
Kevin Kline is so underrated. He so should have gotten an Oscar nod for this movie.
I've seen so many comments here about Kevin Kline's voice in this song, but I have to disagree--I think Kline's voice is what MAKES this song so moving.

i so agree with you!
Exactly right.
I agree totally

Kevin Kline is easily one of the most underrated actors out there.
This movie is just phenomenal.
Screw what the critics and reviews say: this movie is a gem.
Movie critics so underappreciated this exceptional motion picture by Irwin Winkler. As others have commented: Kline and Judd deserved so well their award nominations.
I fell in love with Cole Porter and his music through this movie. Musical movie making at its best, capturing the emotions of all Porter's songs so accurately with its storyboard. This is a scene so hard to watch I was bawling 😭 and also the last scene - in the still of the night ohhh 😢😢
No kidding, I thought this movie was gold...or maybe it's the awesomeness of Kevin Kline
Kevin Kline I hope you song this song too your wife ...It's great ...
I never get tired seeing this scene,especially hearing Kevin Kline's voice singing this very beautiful song.
Hermosa realmente hermosa y conmovedora escena cada que la veo también me hace llorar una vida apasionante de COOL PORTER
I have so deeply enjoyed and enjoyed and enjoyed this project...De-Lovely will be 20 years old and still superb
I believe this is the best rendition of this song. I, being an old fool, had to wipe my tears over and over again. Its a very haunting and tear-jerking song.
And this comment made me fall in love with you just a little as I completely feel the same way stranger. Thank you for stating my emotions.
The best moment in the film, despite the fact that it always makes me cry. Kline and Judd are lovely as Cole Porter and Linda Lee Thomas Porter. They had the most fascinating union: a marriage of convenience, but loved each other unconditionally and ended up as true soul mates. Always lose it at 2:36, his voice cracking and their foreheads bump, destroys me every time. It takes the film from beautiful to singularly gorgeous.
Couldn't agree more. I too am brought to tears every time I watch it, and I have seen it many times!
Truly. Extraordinarily moving. Well-done, actors and film-makers on that one.
Very well said, I agree 100%. Everytime I watch this movie it moves me the same. Beautiful, emotional with great music selection of Cole Porter's countless compositions. I cry everytime...
There is no better version than the one of Kevin Kline just singing this at the piano in my opinion. It is filled with emotion, I love it.
I could not agree more with you about with Kevin L Kline's rendition of "So in Love" Love" -
In this precise moment My grandpa passed away..I believe it was because he missed grandma soo much he wanted to see her again...That's how I imagine them right now...Looking in each others eyes...singing how much they loved for over 60 yrs!
How they didn't win Oscar's, still beyond me.
Politics
This Moment was like a moment of tribute to their love...It was their moment. Absolute perfection!
I found this movie randomly at the library one day recently, and I'm so glad I did. I love it so much, especially this scene
"D'lovely" ranks among the most creative movie musicals ever crafted, It is a delight that does not wear out with repeated viewings.

Yes it does. N
Great movie and I love all his songs
Cole Porter was unique in that he wrote both the melody and the words...the complete package all wrapped up in one genius...
i am so in love with this movie,,,,,,in reality i don't have words to describe it,,,,,,it is a real life,,,,,,and ashley judd the best among the best
Kevin Kline is nothing short of brilliant in this film, on every level.. great post!!

love this movie...this song makes me cry....Kevin Kline is phenomenal, one of my favorite actors ever
the best love song ever!!
One of my favorite movies of all time 👏👏👏👏
well i know the movie was ok
but this scene made me cry so
much esp. when he cracked
because he wanted to cry tht wuz sad how it ended and i love this song and the movie... i will never get tired of watching or hearing it.
He didn't cheat. He was bisexual and she loved him as he was. And so he loved her with all her flaws. That's real love.
Forget life, forget strife, forget everything but the the melody & lyrics of this most beautiful song. It takes me to another place. The lyrics and harmony merge into tears every time I hear it. Close your eyes and lose yourself in the beautiful space and time of the music. God! what a great song. I think I'll play it again.
Such a beautiful scene. Such a underated movie.
Loved the movie. Just wish they showed more of Mario Frangoulis and Lara Fabian singing So In Love!!
one of the best moments of musical films.
I saw this beautiful movie and the story made me cry and the songs are magnificent!!!!❤️❤️❤️❤️🌹🌹🌹🌹🌹⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Ashley Judd is divine and Kevin Kline sings beautifully!!!!
Rest in Peace, my sweet husband. You deserted me, but not by choice. Gone too young, too soon, too quickly. The children and I love you.... until and beyond the day I die.

Gosh this song is hauntingly beautiful.
What a rarity. This is the most passion found in any music.
Thank you for posting this wonderful video. I loved this movie and this music. I feel terribly badly for those of modern generations who hear crude, atonal, dissonant noise and think it is music. Is it possible that mankind is actually DE-volving?
Yeah, I saw this movie in the theater with my late grandmother and she went crazy during this scene. Her husband was dying in a nursing home at the time.
Kevin Clone delivers the best version of this song, so hauntingly sweer and sincere.
You mean Kevin Kline
He’s great. But KD Lang owns this song now. 😉
the most beautiful movie I have EVER seen.
Saw this movie on a plane to japan. cried then and still do!
i cried when kevin sings esp when he starts to crack to stop from crying. thank you for the video.
Kline best singer for this song...no other singer compares.
Best.Love.Song. EVER!
The movie is beautiful and Mario Frangoulis' voice is phenomenal! I'm so glad he was chosen for that part!
Preciosa canción.
Hace que el corazón se detenga
Que tu memoria vuele
❤❤❤
Самый трогательный момент из фильма...и самая красивая песня❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️❣️
Cole Porter was the David foster of his age legends both of them
Goosebumps with this song...every time! Genius music!
Man, I didn't think I was going to cry but I did. Damnit.
What a Lyric. They just don't make 'em anymore.
Strange dear, but true dear
When I'm close to you, dear
The stars fill the sky
So in love with you am I
Even without you
My arms fold about you
You know darling why
So in love with you am I
In love with the night mysterious
The night when you first were there
In love with my joy delirious
When I knew that you could care
So taunt me, and hurt me
Deceive me, desert me
I'm yours, till I die
So in love
So in love
So in love with you, my love... Am I....
cuanta nostalgia...pelicula y canciones ....del nacimiento de nina lya elisha

es una producción tan emotiva ..es estar enamorada del.amor ...sin importar preferencias ante todo el amor Está encima de todo ...
So in love with this movie & it's song
Just beautiful! The song is a masterpiece!
i never knew kevin was such a good singer
I only watched it three times!
SO TOUCHING, WONDERFUL!!! A TEAR!
That's it. I'm gonna track this movie down and watch it!
Did you find it? It's one of my all time favorites and I do NOT like musicals! This one is definitely an exception to that rule! :) Hope you found it! Enjoy ~
Deborah Ingle I absolutely love the movie and EVERY SINGLE SONG!! Especially this song cover just makes me cry EVERY SINGLE TIME!!
It’s called De-Lovely
Yes, I did too. It's heartbreaking.
How can anyone write about this Cole Porter song and not use the word "haunting"? Probably the most haunting love song ever written..... [sigh] And Ashley Judd is the most beautiful "ill" person ever to grace the silver screen. I'd get sick with her any day. LOL
+markmh835 - TRUE, through and through!
Thank you for posting, Jorge. This song is fabulous...I completely agree with kendahke about the Kevin Kline's performance for this musical...it is so intimate and moving. Just de-lovely..
Beautiful song .♥
A great scene. A great film.
Yes, it made me cry, too.
Amo tanto esse filme e em especial essa música.
it's a wonderful song
4:00 ... "This is so much more than a Song."
Wonderful!!
Imagine watching your song ON the Broadway..NYC
loveeeeeeeeeeee the movie so much!!
"I'm yours till I die"
This is very beautiful and moving but I would also highly recommend listening to “Goodbye Little Dream” as sung all too briefly in the film. It also is very moving if sung properly as in the original version !
charming
de-lovely
I am listening again ❤❤❤❤❤
Just watched this movie twice yesterday, first with my family and then with my friend Kailoa (kailoa36 on here). One word: Wow! This scene makes me cry every time.
