Love is just embellishment, singing and dancing are eternal

In the world of the Moulin Rouge, everything is a little distorted and exaggerated. You can't measure the characters and love in it with your usual three perspectives. Because of the dramatic presentation, the movie is like a black and white fairy tale that can't stand deep study.

For example, why a poor poet must win love, and why a duke who pays a lot must be a villain and be nailed to the moral judgment seat. The glamorous oiran is destined to fall in love with freedom, talent, and a handsome boy who is passionate but down-to-earth. Rich men must be greedy and selfish, and if they don't get it, they will be destroyed.

Don't get too addicted to love, it blinds people, makes people sad, makes people want to possess, and makes people want to kill. Take a look at this gorgeous stage, listen to this blood-sucking music, and see this incredibly beautiful dancer. In the movie, Nicole Kidman is like a diamond, like a china, like an unreal dream. Enjoy this audio-visual feast and you're done. Love? Oh, fuck his love.

In the Moulin Rouge, the grand show is about to start. Are you ready in front of the screen?

    The dance is beautiful but not floating, the atmosphere is noisy but not frolic, and the camera is lively but not chaotic. Nicole's coolness is absolutely worthy of admiration.

    When I first saw the male protagonist's appearance and the soundtrack, it reminded me of "Big Fish" inexplicably, and I suddenly found out that "Big Fish" was actually the first movie I watched for the male protagonist. Dazzling. "The most precious thing in the world is to give love, and the other party will return it with love."
