1899 Paris is given a contemporary musical twist in this daring depiction of the infamous, gaudy and glamorous Parisian nightclub Moulin Rouge.
An unconventional melding of gorgeous period design by costume and production designer Catherine Martin and modern-era pop tunes, this dualistic film doesn’t let the rules stand in its way. When writer Christian (Ewan McGregor) becomes intertwined with Paris’s most adored courtesan Satine (Nicole Kidman), he finds himself plunged into this decadent world where anything goes, except falling in love.
