Sing and Be Happy, Dammit! #17: Moulin Rouge
Send us Fan Mail
Nothing could be as spectacular (spectacular) as the real Moulin Rouge in the 1800s, with its array of dancers, artists, bohemians, and unusual performers (like Le Pétomane — his act was a real ripper!) but Baz Luhrmann tries! His sumptuous, frenetic, hilarious, (possibly vacuous?) film sets out to blind us with its charm.
