Director:
Baz Luhrmann Rated: R Country: Australia, USA Language: English Runtime: 127 minutes Theatrical Release: 06/01/2001 US DVD Release: 11/11/2001 |
| Plot Summary |
| A poet falls for a beautiful courtesan whom a jealous duke covets in this stylish musical, with music drawn from familiar 20th century sources. |
| Starring |
| Nicole
Kidman Ewan McGregor |
| Film Review |
| Another
post-modern mix of myth, musical, comedy, romance and unfettered pastiche
from the impressively inventive Luhrmann, here ransacking pop culture's
iconographic archives - rather than the real Paris of 1900 - to mount
a hyperkinetic update of the Orpheus myth. Naive, lovelorn writer/composer
Christian (McGregor) is taken up by bohemians like Toulouse-Lautrec
to put on a show at the scandalous showplace of the title, where courtesan/torch
singer Satine (Kidman) will do anything - even sleep with a dodgy
Duke - to further her acting career, especially if pressed by the
club proprietor (Broadbent) - until, that is, she meets Christian,
and her heart melts. A Red Shoes-style fable of love and art in conflict
with commerce and power, it's luridly stunning to look at even if
it's cut a little too quickly and insistently for its own good. It's
also jam-packed with allusions and gags, and performed with enormous
gusto. If it lacks the emotional punch of Luhrmann's earlier films,
and drags towards the end, it is still great fun. Reviewed by "Time Out" |

| Clip 1 |
Ewan, the somewhat nervous poet, is not quite sure what to do with
the sultry corsetted Nicole until she gives him a bit of "inspiration"
as, for comic releif, Toulouse-Lautrec peeks through the window. HOT!
Buff Rating: 4 |
| Clip 2 | Nicole distracts the evil Duke while Ewan attempts to sneak out of the room. Charming and funny. Buff Rating: 3 |
| Clip 3 | The classic music video montage from the film. Worth watching just to admire how the music supervisor stitched it all together to provide a platform for Ewan and Nicole to look downright sexy! Buff Rating: 4 |
| Clip 4 | Perhaps the hottest Tango ever filmed! This scene makes it worth buying the DVD to see the "making of" feature to be amazed at the complexity of choreography and passion. Buff Rating: 4 |
