flashy dream

Paris in the last year of the 19th century, the holy land of Bohemia, the glitz of romantic literature and art, and the dream of a down-and-out writer to find love. This dream is always unreal. The accidental encounter and acquaintance, the talented singing of the beautiful woman and the duke's contract coercion have put this love to the test. Good things are always short-lived, and even this flashy dream came to an abrupt end with the fall of Satine. In fact, the end of this dream is also a kind of satisfaction, at least Satine does not have to bear the impoverished life with the writer, and does not have to be wronged for her own career to complete the contract marriage with the Duke. Satine needs a stage and love, but unfortunately this is not what the Duke and Christian can give her at the same time, nor what she can truly accept. Time will tire her out. The poor writer, only shows off his feelings of love; the poor duke, who has to buy love with money, but watch it rush away. The glitz is gone, but it is a Spectacular Spectacular that vaguely meets in a dream.
