Moulin Rouge: A redemption of the soul
Huang Zihong
As we all know, the French Moulin Rouge has a long history, as early as 1899, the Moulin Rouge bar opened in the Montmartre area of Paris, and in less than half a year, its reputation spread throughout Europe. For more than 100 years, five generations of operators have developed the Moulin Rouge into an internationally renowned brand.
The 2001 American Hollywood song and dance film "Moulin Rouge" was co-starred by Nicole Kidman and Ivan McGregor.
The film mainly tells the love story between the heroine Satene and the male protagonist Christian, a clichéd, old-fashioned, similar to the story of "La Traviata", which once again attracts people's attention and shocks people's hearts in modern song and dance.
Co-produced by the United States and Australia, the film was shot in Sydney, Australia, creating a luxurious, materialistic, scarlet-dominated "Moulin Rouge in Paris" effect.
The heroine is played by Australian actor Nicole Kidman, representing Hollywood and American films back to their homeland to shoot in Australia, this kind of happiness of returning home is not something that ordinary people can appreciate and envy.
As a beautiful blonde actress with a height of 1.80 meters, Nicole Kidman's brilliance and acting skills were initially hidden under her ex-husband Tom Cruise. After ten years of marriage, the divorced Nicole Kidman starred in "Moulin Rouge", which is actually more like playing the "original self" in the depths of her soul.
As it turns out, "Moulin Rouge" is a hard-won and heartfelt performance by Nicole Kidman, and the song and dance components in it are all completed by herself, fully demonstrating her comprehensive artistic achievements and talents. Subsequently, she starred in a series of works and won the Oscar for "All the Time".
If in "Titanic", love saves the heroine's life, then in "Moulin Rouge", love saves the heroine's soul, making her gradually sober, strong and independent.
It has to be mentioned that Nicole Kidman is the second Hollywood actress to wear the oriental cheongsam with charm and personalization after the classic actress Grayskerry in hollywood's golden age.
Today, time has passed, and in the blink of an eye, 20 years have quietly passed, but the legend and love of the movie "Moulin Rouge" are still continuing to this day.
