Sixteen years after the musical rom-com's release, "Moulin Rouge" stars Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman sat down to discuss working on the Baz Luhrmann movie for Variety’s "Actors on Actors" series. bit.ly/VarietyS...
My mum said after seeing the film, "That singer is a good actor." She assumed Ewan was a singer by trade and was acting as a side gig- that's how good his voice is.
I love Ewan’s voice. It’s like velvet. As a theater and film person, Moulin Rouge is the PERFECT marriage of both. Ugh, it’s one of the BEST Movie Musicals EVER MADE, imho of course. We have to stand our ground for freedom, beauty, truth & LOOOOOOVE
Seeing Moulin Rouge on the big screen back then overwhelmed the senses. I was in college when I saw it, and loved the chemistry of Nicole and Ewan. I was obsessed with this movie and still have it on DVD. I bought the two soundtrack CDs as well. So happy to see this video.
@@cardhouseanimal same! I think I must have been around 5 when it came out, but I watched it years later and I loved it so so much, and rewatched it many times during my teen years. I think if they would put it on the cinemas again, many people would go, people who never saw it on cinemas or people who are nostalgic about it.
ha its funny cause i saw this at the cinema and i was overwhelmed by the loud music and dancing, its my fav musicical and seeing the theatre show in a few weeks, i still think the movie will be my fav, ewan was just amazing. times flies
Its funny Nicole felt so out-sung...Kelly Clarkson sung the only cover of Come What May I could even appreciate outside of Nicole’s original. Just goes to show that the chops aren’t all that counts, their chemistry makes that song so powerful 💜
Nicole Kidman is such a gem! Beautiful, so talented and full of grace. Amazing protagonist role. Such an astonishing career: Far and Away, Cold Mountain, The Others and the magical Moulin Rouge! She’s such an incredible woman.
The Moulin Rouge appreciation here is just so heart warming .... I loved this film since I first saw it at 8 years old and I'm nearly 28 !!! it will be my fav movie for life. I used to be in plays and in moments where I had to wait for my next part I would fantasise about playing Satine one day
I absolutely loved moulin Rouge! I'm surprised these two didn't end up together because they have such great chemistry. Ewan McGregor has got a fantastic voice but so does Nichole
Watching this after watching Moulin Rouge! again in Netflix and HBO. Saw the movie when I was still in middle school and until now.. im still IN LOVE with the movie ❤ amazing voice Ewan ❤
My sister and I were in our late teens when it came out. We had never seen the movie but had the soundtrack for some reason and knew all the music word for word. I only just watched it a few years ago. I just never thought I'd actually like it much even though I loved the music. It was so cool to finally see the movie behind the music and it became one of my favourite movies.
I remember telling my mum I loved this movie at five years old, not knowing what it was about and she loved that I loved it cos it was one of her favourites. I found out in drama class in my fourth year of high school (15-16 year old) what it actually meant after all those years and it is still one of my faves! That's how I came to love Ewan McGregor at five years old! Classic for me :3
i think they had a lot of onscreen and offscreen chemistry at the time (if you see the behind the scenes footage and outtakes from 20 years ago) but like they said they hadnt seen each other in so long.. such a shame! im always a sucker and want ppl to fall in love during a movie like angelina jolie and brad pitt did LOL
@@IzayaV Definitely. I think they were actually in love back then, but just simply didn't act on it, as they were with somebody else. I remember seeing a behind the scenes video, where Nicole looks at Ewan, and that was look of genuine love and not just a friend/colleague look
@@Vaskito92 Oh I think they definitely banged it out one night. Come on all that tension and chemistry and love mixed with music, food, drinking, and dancing. It had to have happened. At least in my mind it did 😂
"Its yours forever" and i could see it and feel it and it was amazing to watch! 1 of my very first dvd experience with surround sound with my family, it was amazing abck in 2001.
Moulin Rouge forever changed me. And boy Ewan is still just so charming. I was obsessed with the soundtrack for this and still listen to it. I wish I could have been a fly on the wall in the house theyre describing.
I just watched the movie like yesterday night and tonight for the first time finally since I've heard Tango De Roxanne. What a beautiful masterpiece of a movie. A remake would never equivalent to the original.
I can’t stop smiling.... I watched this movie for the first time on the 22.07.2007, I was 15 years old and I crushed on Ewan immediately. It was the very first time I saw him on screen 📺. He still is one of my biggest celebrity crushes... 😉☺️😍💕❤️💜 And I looove this movie 🎥 so much.... Brings back so many awesome memories...
C P some couples are just pure magic ! Kate and Leo definitely, ewan and Nicole and I do believe speaking on my recent times , that Bradley cooper and lady Gaga Have that insane chemistry. Ryan and Emma too
It's the most wonderful musical I've seen, the songs, the dances and the voice and the power of Johan that makes me fall in love again, a perfect pair of actors
in my top ten for sure....Princess Bride, Fiddler on the Roof, Chicago, It's a Wonderful Life, Moulin Rouge...couldn't live without having a copy of these!
Im a movie lover and few movies as surprised me in a positive way in theaters like this one and I can still remember every detail, the date, the theater, the company the uau factor, moulin rouge was an unique experience and one I will never forget
One of my favorite film ever.. been seeing this movie like what, 11years ago,, and had a copy of orig vcd watched it like 10times, it's great to see again these actors together reminiscing their days on making the film.. i super like 'em both.. nicole and ewan❤️.. actually, when i get married come what may is my top choice to play while walking at the isle of the church..😊
I wish they'd do a revisit - what if she'd lived....they grew old together and sang songs about an enduring love ! I will put in one million bucks right now to green light it!
Moulin Rouge is MY FAVORITE MOVIE EVER, the first time I watched it was in January and have watched it 18 times since! Nicole is one of my biggest role models (in my top 3) and is it bad I kinda have a huge crush on Evan? Lol omg love you two😍😍😍😍
Moulin Rouge is one of those films whose significance didn't seem that big upon its release. But with passage of time its stock has only increased. Perhaps its format was ahead of its time and people couldn't get the hang of it. Now the film seems revolutionary in retrospect. If the film was released now it would sweep the Oscars.
Funny how some actors are afraid of giving a wrong impression while doing some silly things, like Uma Thurman dancing with John Travolta in Pulp Fiction.
I was just a kid when I first watched it and I knew then that this is one of my favourites. I think MR was the first musical I have watched that I enjoyed. It marked to me.
I seriously love this moulin rouge Nicole Kidman was one of my childhood crushes and I still love to this very day. ❤️❤️❤️ I’ll never stop watching moulin rouge
Every time I see "Moulin Rouge" I enjoy it, and I associate its music with a lot of evocative situations, including my children, little ones, fixed to their safety chairs in the car and singing: "If you can-can-can". Masterpiece, no doubt
