At Long Last Love is a 1975 musical film directed by Peter Bogdanovich, starring Burt Reynolds, Cybill Shepherd, Madeline Kahn, and Eileen Brennan.It features Cole Porter songs and was realized without lip-synching in an attempt to recreate the atmosphere of the very earliest musical films, a choice that made the production particularly difficult and long beyond expectations. It was an enormous box-office bomb and gained scathing reviews, yet some have re-evaluated it, at least as an example of So Bad, It's Good.

Book Ends: The movie begins and ends with a shot of a music box, with animatronic dancers switching partners.

Jukebox Musical: As a homage to classic Golden Age movie musicals, the soundtrack is made up entirely of Cole Porter songs.

All Love Is Unrequited

comment
All Love Is Unrequited / Love Dodecahedron: Of the four protagonists, Michael's in love with Kitty who's in love with Johnny who's in love with Brooke who's in love with Michael. Lampshaded by Kitty and Brooke in the "I Loved Him {But He Didn't Love Me}" number. Subverted later on, as it's implied in dialogue in the climactic ballroom dance that both Michael and Johnny fall in love with Brooke and Kitty (respectively), since both remark that the partner they're pining for has never looked more beautiful than they are dancing with the other. Double subverted, depending on how you interpret the final shot of the music box that bookends the movie.

Re-Cut: The version most readily available for viewing has been extensively remade to better match the director's vision after the initial cut done by the studio proved so poorly received.

Period Piece: Set in the 1930s. Well, in the glamorous Old Hollywood version of the 1930s, at least.
