A simply breath taking musical directed by Baz Luhrmann, who previously gained acclaim for the direction of "Strictly Ballroom." The appeal to this film is mostly generated from the rich and glamorous set design and the excellent (not original) songs. One of the most odd mainstream films to come in a long time. See it for an interesting night!
