Synopsis

Moulin Rouge! rekindled the cinema-going public's love affair with musicals. It's a grand spectacle in every way from the glittering costumes, mind-blowing dance sequences, which include the can can and the tango, to the music. Instead of stuffy show tunes, the songs of Moulin Rouge! are a wonderful combination of pop hits from Madonna, Elton John and more. This is not your granny's musical! Nicole Kidman stars as the beautiful Satine in this gorgeous blockbuster.
