One of the most lavish British fiIms of the siIent era in both budget and scope, Moulin Rouge stars Jean Bradin, Eve Gray and Russian-German screen sensation Olga Tschechowa in the story of a young aristocrat driven to a suicide attempt after falIing in Iove with a young dancer and her elegant, ravishingly beautiful mother.
Set in and around the famous dance-haIls of Paris, MouIin Rouge showcased British International Pictures' engagement of Ieading Continental film-makers during the late 1920s. The first British fiIm directed by expressionist pioneer Ewald Andre Dupont, it also features Werner Brandes' stylish, distinctiveIy European cinematography and art direction by Oscar winner Alfred Junge.
FiImed at Elstree through the winter of 1927, the film was originally trade shown in March 1928 as a siIent fiIm with Iive musical accompaniment. It was re-reIeased in 1929 with a recorded, synchronised score by John Reynders. |
