The Choice of Love and Diamonds

After such a long time, the Moulin Rouge in 2001 is still very good looking from the current point of view. After a few years, I think the film will become a classic representative work of song and dance movies. In the movie, we can see a large number of gorgeous singing and dancing arias, cancan dance and modern famous songs familiar to the Beatles, Elton John, Madonna, Sting, Nirvana, Queen, U2 and other bands are intertwined. Let's see the glamorous Nicole seduce men in the Moulin Rouge where the money is drunk and the feasting. It may be that I personally like such beautiful, gorgeous, lively and extravagant musicals, so I fell in love with "Moulin Rouge".

Musical movies are generally not too complicated. A red-card geisha in the Moulin Rouge falls in love with a poor writer, while a rich baron wants to possess a geisha. A poor writer can only bring love to a geisha. These seemingly noble and noble contents are flashy spiritual food. A baron can bring a geisha the chance to become famous and bring diamonds. But it is a material need that many people cannot lack. In order to live and love, a geisha has to deal with two men. Love and diamonds may be what every woman pursues in her life. In the end, the geisha boldly chose love and gave up diamonds. The tragedy of the film's story.

Nicole's performance in the movie "Moulin Rouge" is quite amazing. I remember that she was nominated for Best Actress in the Oscar for her role as a geisha. Personally, I think there is nothing wrong with being elected as Best Actress. Attracted by the beautiful beauty of "The Mill" and neglected her acting skills, Nicole can only play ugly to win the championship in "Life in a Novel" the following year, which is really a late Oscar. Infected by the music and dance hall in "Moulin Rouge", my blood boiled, and then I came to watch "Mamma Mia", "The Nightmare Before Christmas" and "Chicago".

Of course, there are more works of art in this kind of story that emphasizes love rather than desire, so that future generations can sing praises to the high love. Men and women in real life will be more rational, love is not enough bread, diamonds can be exchanged for more bread. When ordinary people choose between love and diamonds, what will they choose? I will choose diamonds, maybe I am a money worshipper, I believe that life needs love, love cannot be eternal, diamonds are the real eternal.
