      Life is beautiful because of you

      RAY and DE-LOVELY, both are biographies of music masters, SOUL and JAZZ encountered so different. RAY is a big hit movie, giving JAMIE FOX the best actor crown. In contrast, DE-LOVELY is submerged in the dark. From the point of view, HARVER graduates like COLE have not experienced poverty or discrimination, and the story is always a little less powerful. But I still want to tell this story, because of love.
       
      DE-LOVELY has an uncomfortably delicate, unfamiliar feel. When I was a child,...

      "Little Cutie" - Light Wind and Whistle

      How many opportunities does a person have in his life to sit in the audience and watch a performance about his life?
        Life is like that sudden stage play in a movie. At the beginning, it was a frolic and a crowd, people who knew and did not know gathered together. "Little Cutie" is a film about the life of American Broadway composer Cole Porter. The film examines the musical journey of his life with memories of his old age, such as a sudden stage play, with a bustling crowd. There is a...

      Love is unreserved, undisguised, unscrupulous, unselfish

      Another excellent film that touched me and made me have the passion to write film reviews.

      A brilliant, sensual, typical musician of the gaming world, Cole. His love and feeling for music comes from the tremors and smells of his most immediate soul, from the unrestrained burst of inspiration.

      So he can freely spread his love to women, and even more to men.

      Is he a same, or a double?

      But he met the most important woman in his life. That woman is smart,...

      De Lovely

      De Lovely, the Chinese translation of "Little Lovely", although the title of the movie still feels a little weird after watching the movie, but I found that I really like this movie, especially the structure of the film makes me feel completely new.

      It tells the life of the great composer Cole Porter. The hero of the film is a composer. The film begins with the rehearsal of the musical based on the love story between the hero and the heroine when the hero is invited by his friends...

      Stories told in music.


      The film was captivated from the very beginning. . .
      In The Still Of The Night floats in my ears.
      He is a genius without any modification, but he
      just sings softly
      and faintly brings out the story of this life.


      Memories turned into a drama , the
      old man turned into a viewer
      , and it began quietly.


      Well indeed he's a genius but also a mortal who
      doesn't restrain himself and runs like that horse...
      not so many smooth roads...

      I listened to the OST for a year before watching the movie. Cole Porter's story, if you take the music out of it, would be a mundane biopic, but those songs are too precious and too beautiful. Kiss Me Kate also has a song selected, I'm really...

      This film still has some ideas in terms of form, the song is perfect, but the plot feels like it's too compressed to sing...

    Movie plot

    Fragrant Paris. Porter, the dashing musician, is an American who revels in his romantic life, preferring to hang out with handsome, stocky same-sex partners rather than pretty girls. The hobby came to an abrupt end with the appearance of the wealthy and charming Linda Lee. Love can be met but not sought, so that the two step into the palace of marriage.
    After marriage, Linda devoted herself to her husband's career and recommended Porter...
