The Duke loses unjustly, and the poet wins too easily.

The Duke lost, as a matter of course.
The poet won, despite all the difficulties.

The first sentence is false.
The second sentence is also false.

From the beginning to the end, I like the Duke from the beginning to the end. The Duke should be the winner and win love.
But in this love story, the poet who has nothing but poetry is better than the rich and powerful duke.

From an internal point of view, the duke is romantic, responsible, calm, dedicated, tolerant, and persistent in love.
If it's not romantic, how can you be fascinated by the dancing girls' songs, how can you believe the crappy lies of the dancers and the managers of the Moulin Rouge, how can you invest in that bad script with nothing new?
If you are not responsible, how can you not want the dancer's one-night stand and ask for her exclusive rights? How can you plan a beautiful and pure future for the dancer before she puts forward the conditions?
If you are not steady, how can you choose to slowly pursue a dancing girl, send flowers and meals every day, and show your thoughtfulness and gentlemanly demeanor to the fullest?
If you are not devoted, how can you chase the dancer's figure every day and use your hot face to stick to the dancer's cold ass?
If you don’t forbear it, how can you fail to investigate the cause when the dancer officially missed the appointment for the first time? How can you try to maintain the superficial harmony when the dancer and the poet are in love with each other? Don't retaliate wildly after waking up again?
If you are not obsessed with love, how can you do all the above behaviors but choose to leave the scene sadly in the end, leaving only a bunch of flowers that were meant to be dedicated to the dancing girl?
(It is also very important that the Duke will respect people. He did not despise the dancer because she was not a virgin, or even moved her to be "like a virgin".)
From the outside, the Duke is rich in money and has the right to give Dancing girl "a woman's best friend-diamond" can also realize the dancing girl's actor dream.
But this is why the Duke loses for granted. (I don’t know if you still think so after reading the above.)
The rich and powerful are often the strong. People despise the strong and sympathize with the weak.
Therefore, the strong in reality, such as rich and powerful people, have become morally and logically disadvantaged groups.
So in this love story, a poet who has nothing but poetry is better than a rich and powerful duke.
I don’t know if you have ever heard of such a thing: The
upright official Hai Rui is called just and selfless by the world, and the people praise her as a god in her judgment. However, Hai Rui always favored the poor unreasonably when he judged the case. As a result, when he was a county magistrate, many punks went to the rich to provoke troubles, and then sued the officials to blackmail the rich's money.
Is "taken for granted" taken for granted? Fake.

The poet won, despite all the difficulties. This is even more false.
The poet emphasizes color. He is pure on the surface, and his beauty is currently unmoved and just chanting poems. But why did such a pure person fall in love with a dancing girl for the first time, and after seeing the dancing girl's coquettish, slutty and arrogant side?
The poet is careless. He never asked the dancer about her illness, never gave her a life, never took the initiative to consider their future, and only talked about "love".
The poet is selfish. He accepts the Duke’s investment in his own script, but does not allow the dancers to "betray" feelings a little to repay the Duke.
The poet is jealous. He doubts the truth and love of the dancing girl. In the end, he even utters something about the dancing girl in public and makes insults to the dancing girl.
Where is the difficulty?
Write some sweet words to fascinate the dancing girl without any effort?
Are you looking for opportunities to have an affair with a dancing girl every day?
Are you vowing to elope with the dancing girl?
Where are all the difficulties?
What was the poet doing when the dancing girl fell ill and passed out and was tortured? Sit and wait.
What is the poet doing when the dancers and the managers of the Moulin Rouge are trying their best to deal with them? Sit and wait.
What was the poet doing when the dancing girl was forced by the duke and fortunately saved by chocolate? Sit and wait.
What was the poet doing when she said she was going to elope, the dancer went back to pack her clothes? Sit and wait.
He won, only because he said to you beauty, freedom and love, only because he is a poet with nothing but poetry.

The Duke loses unjustly, the poet wins too easily.

Therefore, "Moulin Rouge" ended with a fragrant beauty and a loss of jade.
Because the screenwriter knows that even the fairy tales of princes and princesses can only write about marriage.
What's more, it's just a beautiful dancing girl in love with a passionate poor poet?
Maybe I wrote it down, and it was another "Du Shiniang Falling into a Treasure Box".
