Moulin Rouge! Trivia Questions

Most songs are mashups and covers of existing pop hits, like 'Lady Marmalade' and 'Roxanne,' reimagined for the film's anachronistic style.

Released in 2001, the soundtrack album featuring songs like 'Lady Marmalade' and 'Come What May' reached number one on the Billboard 200 and became a multi-platinum seller.

Ewan McGregor performed all of his own singing, singing live on set as part of director Baz Luhrmann's vision for authenticity.

During the physically demanding 'Elephant Love Medley' sequence, Kidman suffered a cracked rib from being lifted and twirled by dancers, but she continued filming.

The red curtain was a deliberate, early concept by Luhrmann and designer Catherine Martin to evoke the theatricality of a live cabaret, not an afterthought.

It grossed $57.4 million domestically, more than its $50 million budget, making it a modest success, not a flop.

Luhrmann had worked with DiCaprio on 'Romeo + Juliet' and considered him first, but DiCaprio was committed to 'The Beach,' opening the door for Ewan McGregor.

The medley was carefully pre-written and arranged by composer Marius de Vries, though McGregor and Kidman did ad-lib some playful line deliveries during filming.
