Wow...I bought Moulin Rouge sight unseen, and WOW! I can't get enough of it. I love the interlude of love songs scene. Just an incredible flick and an astounding DVD!
The whole Sound of Music bit, and the dizzying effect of the first entrance into the club, and the goofiness of Nirvana had me about ready to turn it off. Then Nicole Kidman made her entrance and I was hooked.
This is EXACTLY the way I felt. At first, I found it sooo annoying, I was about ready to switch it off and return it to the store, but I persevered, and it ended up, thanks mostly to Kidman, to be a rather enjoyable film. The style is sumptuous and unique, and while some aspects still irritated me, I would recommend it to others. Certainly NOT one of my top 10s of 2001 though.
