Moulin Rouge!
Bohemian Montmartre spectacle
Moulin Rouge! is a 2001 musical film directed by Baz Luhrmann, set in the famous Parisian cabaret.
The exclamation point is part of the official title, distinguishing it from earlier films about the venue.
The movie is known for its frenetic editing, anachronistic pop soundtrack, and tragic love story between a poet and a courtesan: We watched Moulin Rouge! three times that summer.
