Documentary film.
Noël Coward grew up in poverty and left school when he was only nine years old. He was queer in a very straight world.
And yet by the age of 30, he was the highest paid writer in the world, and a star on the Broadway stage. He wrote, directed and acted in some of the finest plays and movies of all time, including Private Lives, Blithe Spirit, Brief Encounter and In Which We Serve. He also became a world renowned songwriter and performer, and was also a spy during WWII.
Against all odds, Noël Coward became the most successful multi-talented artist of the twentieth century. He defined an era and led an extraordinary life. This is his inspirational story told in his own words and music, and unique home movies.
The film features Laurence Olivier, Maggie Smith, Harold Pinter, Frank Sinatra, Lauren Bacall, Michael Caine, and Lucille Ball. Rupert Everett is the voice of Noël Coward. Narrated by Alan Cumming. International superstar recording artist Adam Lambert sings the film’s theme song, an updated cover of Coward’s “Mad About The Boy”. The song was produced by Amanda Ghost and Johnny Coffer.
