| Summary |
"Moulin Rouge" is a celebration of truth, beauty, freedom but above all things love - set in the infamous, gaudy and glamorous Paris nightclub, circa 1900. Director Baz Luhrmann ("Strictly Ballroom", "William Shakespeare's Romeo + Juliet") brings together period design and modern-era pop tunes to create a comic/tragic motion picture experience. Satine (Nicole Kidman) is the Sparkling Diamond, star of the Moulin Rouge and the city's most famous courtesan, is caught between the love of a young writer and another man's obsession. Christian (Ewan McGregor) is a writer who finds himself plunged into this decadent world where anything goes - except falling in love. Prepare to enter a world where nothing is forbidden and everything is possible... |
