I went to see Moulin Rouge (stage play)
Ooh lala, quiet the racy set of costumes.
My girlfriend now wants me to see the movie, which she has seen. She will only say that the play has updated the music as far as differences between the two versions go.
My question(s) is; have you seen both the movie and the play and if so, which was better?
I’m not against seeing the movie, but a stage play lands differently, better I think, than a movie snd I’m curious about what I should possibly expect
I think the movie is the greatest movie ever made!
Well, at least, for its genre.
I didn’t even know there was a play. Some of the scenes must be so tamed down for the stage, it would have to be visually a completely different tone. The movie is all quick cuts, fast paced, plus the whole dancing on the clouds while a benevolent cherub moon smiles down.
Though I could see the final scene with a procession down the actual theater aisles, so that would be good.
But the bottom line, see the film! You’ll be like a virgin, watching for the very first time.
