A bohemian poet from the end of the 19th century manages to become the screenwriter for a play put together by the famous Moulin Rouge, and falls in love with the establishment's star at the same time as the main investor of the project.
'Moulin Rouge' is a neverending love story in the form of a highly acclaimed musical inspired by Alexandre Dumas's 'La Dame aux Camélias'. Baz Luhrmann uses intensely colorful and almost ostentatiously stylized sceneries, original music interspersed with fragments of famous cult songs, a simple script but very much evoking of the same bohemian spirit that is much talked about in the film in a most inspiring way and he has attracted and still attracts the hearts of many romantics, whether they are fans of musicals or not.
