Moulin Rouge

It's really hard to explain what a drunken romp of pure love the movie Moulin Rouge is -- but this is a great review of it -- don't miss renting it.

Just this rooftop scene where they sing lyric after lyric of love songs to one another -- everything from "I Will Always Love You" and "Love Lifts Us Up Where We Belong" and "All We Need Is Love" and "Silly Love Songs" and "We Should Be Lovers" and "Your Song" it's amazing. And their voices are lovely.

Christian: Wait...no, please wait. Before when we were--when we...when you thought I was the Duke and you said that you loved me. And I--I wondered if...

Satine: If it was just an act?

Christian: Yes...

Satine: Of course.

Christian: Oh. It just felt real...

Satine: Christian, I'm a courtesan, I'm paid to make men believe what they want to believe.

Christian: Yes...silly of me, to think that you could fall in love with someone like me...

Satine: Oh...I can't fall in love with anyone.

Christian: Can't fall in love? But a life without love! That's terrible.

Satine: No, being on the street, that's terrible.

Christian: No! Love...is like oxygen.

SONG - ELEPHANT LOVE MEDLEY

Christian: (spoken) Love is a many splendored thing. Love lifts us up where we belong. All you need is love.

Satine: (spoken) Please, don't start that again.

Christian: All you need is love!

Satine: (spoken) A girl has got to eat.

Christian: All you need is love!

Satine: (spoken)She'll end up on the street!

Christian: All you need is love...

Satine: Love is just a game...

Christian: I was made for loving you baby, you were made for loving me!

Satine: The only way of loving me baby is to pay a lovely fee.

Christian: Just one night, give me just one night!

Satine: There's no way 'cause you can't pay.

Christian: In the name of love, one night in the name of love.

Satine: You crazy fool, I won't give into you.
(she tries to leave)

Christian: Don't... leave me this way. I can't survive without your sweet love, oh baby...don't leave me this way.

Satine: You think that people would have had enough of silly love songs.

Christian: I look around me and I see it isn't so, oh no.

Satine: Some people want to fill the world with silly love songs.

Christian: Well what's wrong with that? I'd like to know, cause here I go again! (Christian gets onto the very top of the elephant. Satine screams...) Love lifts us up where we belong!

Satine:(spoken) Get down, get down!

Christian: Where eagles fly, on a mountain high!

Satine: Love makes us act like we are fools. Throw our lives away for one happy day. (Christian gets down)

Christian: We can be heroes! Just for one day...

Satine: You, you will be mean.
(Satine starts to head downstairs)

Christian: No I won't! (he chuckles)

Satine: And I...I'll drink all the time!

Christian: We should be lovers!

Satine: We can't do that.

Christian: We should be lovers! And that's a fact.

Satine: Though nothing would keep us together...

Christian: We could steal time--

Both: Just for one day. We can be heroes, forever and ever. We can be heroes forever and ever. We can be heroes just because...

Christian: I...will always love you!

Satine: I...!

Both: Can't help loving...

Christian: You...

Satine: How wonderful life is...

Both: Now you're in the world...

Satine: (spoken) You're going to be bad for business, I can tell. (they kiss)

Toulouse sings: (drunk) How wonderful life is, now you're in the world...
