TCP: Moulin Rouge



The year is 1899, and Christian, a young English writer, has come to Paris to follow the Bohemian revolution taking hold of the city's drug and prostitute infested underworld. And nowhere is the thrill of the underworld more alive than at the Moulin Rouge, a night club where the rich and poor men alike come to be entertained by the dancers, but things take a wicked turn for Christian as he starts a deadly love affair with the star courtesan of the club, Satine. But her affections are also coveted by the club's patron: the Duke. A dangerous love triangle ensues as Satine and Christian attempt to fight all odds to stay together but a force that not even love can conquer is taking its toll on Satine.Even in ages past, loves motto is still the same,"Bahalag saging, basta labing"...that's our motto too for Couch Potatoes,romantic musical... in English...it means..."For better or for worse, for banana or for apple, we are inseparable, 'til death do us part."
