Dies und das:

Courtney Love was seriously considered for Nicole Kidman's role as Satine but was the director thought she didn't fit well with the movie. Nevertheless, she allowed Baz Luhrmann to use Nirvana's "Smells Like Teen Spirit" in the opening sequence, even when she rarely lets anyone use her late husband's (Kurt Cobain) work in film or TV.

Pannen:

Abfolgefehler: While Satine is talking to Marie about being a real actress there is a candle burning by the mirror on the close up shot, but the next shot there is no candle.

Dialogzitate:

[first lines]
Toulouse-Lautrec: [singing] There was a boy, a very strange enchanted boy...

Querbezüge:

Nimmt Bezug auf A Streetcar Named Desire (1951)

CHILDREN OF THE REVOLUTION

The most original and groundbreaking movie of recent history

I have seen Moulin Rouge at least 25 times. I think it is the most extraordinary movie of my generation and breaks every limit set by the industry. I have heard all the traditional complaints...people didn't like the music, the editing was too swift, or it wasn't "their taste". Moulin Rouge took a risk. A risk films like A Beautiful Mind and Shakespeare in Love don't. It risked by being controversial. To make a likeable movie isn't hard, follow the Hollywood mold and stick in a few attractive actors, some bland dialogue and viola you have a film. Moulin Rouge was made knowing that not everyone would like it, but knowing everyone would at least appreciate it for its artistic ingenuity. Visually it is superb, an indulgent feast for the eyes with every breathtaking, artistic scene. Everything about it is over the top, every scene more stunning than the next, and as it continues your heart becomes more and more intertwined in the love story. The editing in the Roxanne scene rushes through your body and is the most incredible of any movie in history. Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGreggor are the most passionate on-screen couple; entirely convincing as their voices meld them together into one. Never has a movie done what Moulin Rouge did. It realized that the world of film is only being represented in one small way, whereas Moulin Rouge uses a camera and screen to make something bigger and more extraordinary than has ever been made before. It pushes against the confines of convention and leaves you breathless.
