The film is made up as a rehearsal of a musical telling the famous composer's life and takes place on a musical stage as well as in several locations of his life; it focuses especially on Porter's love life and his homosexuality yet controversially suggests that the real love of his life was his wife.

Many of Porter songs are sung by more modern artists like Sheryl Crow or Robbie Williams (see track listing below.) Many of these performances were widely critically panned, particularly Morissette and Crow.
