MOULIN ROUGE!
Break out the glitter, corsets, and top hats for a spectacular, spectacular screening of Moulin Rouge! Dressing up is highly encouraged!
It was 1899 - the summer of love. A penniless poet, Christian (Ewan McGregor), falls in love with an enchanting courtesan, Satine (Nicole Kidman) at a debaucherous Parisian nightclub, the Moulin Rouge. Threatened by a jealous Duke (Richard Roxburgh) who covets Satine’s affections, the star-crossed lovers are forced to hide their romance in thinly-veiled musical numbers. Swirling in power ballad love medleys and eccentric renditions of pop anthems, Baz Luhrmann’s jukebox musical is “a magnificent, opulent, tremendous, stupendous, gargantuan, bedazzlement…a sensual ravishment."
