Moulin Rouge

CriticsCritics: 68
AudienceAudience: 7.2

In 1890s Paris, a talented artist finds belonging among the dancers and bohemians of the Moulin Rouge. As he struggles with isolation and family expectations, two very different relationships challenge his hopes for love, self-worth, and a place in society.

My take

You’ll like this if you enjoy colorful period dramas, artist biographies, and bittersweet romance, but Not for you if you want strict historical accuracy, fast pacing, or the extravagant musical style of the 2001 Moulin Rouge.
