75. Moulin Rouge! (2001)

Hello Excellent Humans!

Our two part miniseries on Baz Luhrmann comes to its inevitable conclusion with this precursor to modern jukebox musicals, it’s 2001’s Moulin Rouge! This episode might just have something for everyone! Do you like high-minded discussion of art? We discuss Death of the Author, interpretations of art, totemic ideas, and cultural osmosis!

Like pop-cultural asides? We talk about the ‘90s X-Men cartoon, Kramer from Seinfeld’s day job, and the soundtrack to Velvet Goldmine!

Like singing? This is our jukebox musical episode, featuring interpretations of songs by The Electric Six, The Muppets, Shari Lewis and Lambchop, Danzig, The Pixies, The Police, Fugazi The Steve Miller Band, Chicago, The Killers, The Gin Blossoms, Black Sabbath, Tom Jones, Stan Bush and more?

It’s Lovin’ with Luhrmann - part 2!
