Enjoy a screening of the Academy Award nominee and 1952 bohemian Parisian film, Moulin Rouge. The dramatic picture tells the colorful story of a young Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (played by Jose Ferrer), as he experiences the subculture nightlife, particularly in close proximity to the burlesque hall, Moulin Rouge. While he watches the women perform, he paints and sketches, creating still-famous promotional posters as a participant in the cruel mind games of the many seductive women. Directed by John Huston, the musical is a tale of love, sadness and the beauty of 1900’s Paris. Part of the museum’s Art House Friday Film Series.
