Just finished watching The Sting! I was lucky enough to catch it from the beginning. I simply adore Kid Twist. So dapper. The music that is played the night before the big sting is one of my favorite songs, the slow piano tune 'Solace', and I loved it so much, I bought the soundtrack. There are a lot of other great rags as well. And the poker game

I want to see De-Lovely so badly! I adore Cole Porter and if they use some of his really great music it could be absolutely smashing! I am annoyed that the director told Kevin Kline to tone down his voice...I like the way Kevin Kline sings...

His songs are mighty catchy and, well, de-lovely (the ones I know of, anyway. He does have quite an extensive songlist). I often find myself humming "Begin the Beguine" and singing bits of "You're the Top" with my terrible Ethel Merman impersonation.

Tone down Kevin Kline's voice? That's ridiculous! I honestly always expect him to burst out in song that he is the pirate king. Speaking of Kline, there was a nice little interview with him in the newspaper yesterday.
