Moulin Rouge: Review

Director Baz Luhrmann's audacious attempt to reanimate the classic musical with an adrenaline shot right to the heart is an intoxicating, flagrantly anachronistic confection. Nicole Kidman is the exquisite, consumptive courtesan Satine, the star of the turn-of-the-century Parisian dancehall/brothel known as the Moulin Rouge. Her favors are promised to a wealthy duke (Richard Roxburgh), but she falls in love with a handsome, aspiring writer (Ewan MacGregor). Read the complete review for Moulin Rouge

I was wondering if I'd like John... | Today's News: Our Take | 10/21/2005
I was wondering if I'd like John Leguizamo's character Dr. Clemente. I knew I'd like John himself, although I imagined him singing all his lines à la Moulin Rouge (hey, you either loved it or hated it — me, I loved it). But would I like his ER character? When no one wanted to get Clemente to help with the hyperactive drugged-out guy, I decided I loved him after he said this line: "Hey — even if you think I'm a pain in the ass, it should never get in the way of patient care." Sold. But I sure was glad they decided to give Kristen Johnston the week off — we longtime ER fans need baby steps to accept new people. Too funny that some of the women are already eyeing Clemente. Nice subtle up-and-down look Samantha gave him, and even Neela (shocker!) referred to him as "kinda hot." Best story line was Luka with the six-year-coma patient, Blaire — how horrible for her to wake up to find out her husband was remarried and her mother was killed. I was read more
Is John Leguizamo Too Freaky for ER? | Today's News: Our Take | 10/20/2005
When the ER on ER gets bustling, things can get a bit cramped, so it's a wonder that new cast member John Leguizamo, known for bringing big and vibrant personalities to life, will be able to contain himself as Dr. Victor Clemente (joining the NBC drama tonight at 10 pm/ET). This is, after all, the man who played drag-queen Chi Chi Rodriguez in To Wong Foo, Thanks for Everything, Julie Newmar and headlined not one but three one-man stage shows (Mambo Mouth, Freak and Sexaholix: A Love Story). But the role at the top of our mind when TVGuide.com spoke to Leguizamo was his memorable turn as the diminutive painter Henri Toulouse-Lautrec in Moulin Rouge — a characterization t read more
I just watched some West Palm... | Today's News: Our Take | 8/16/2005
I just watched some West Palm Beach bitch named Sophie boss around her mother, drop the F-bomb like a trucker and threaten her friends, all over a Moulin Rouge-inspired birthday party. If there was any ounce of me that ever wanted to have children, it's now as withered as this demon seed's soul. The worst thing is, even with a $10,000 stylist who had to work around a gut that would look slim on John Goodman, Teenzilla still ended up looking like the hooker version of Dee the sassy sister from What's Happening!! and had absolutely no idea that about 30 seconds after this show aired, she would become a walking target for her formerly terrorized classmates. And just knowing that makes it feel like it's my birthday. So thanks, Soph. I hope you got everything you wanted… and deserve. read more
