Doris Day heaven!

...is purely for fans of Doris Day! It contains six of Doris' best films:
Young At Heart (1955)- musical with Frank Sinatra. A dramatic musical - fantastic songs and performances by Doris & Frank! Lover Come Back (1961)- some of Doris Day's best films are those in which she starred with the gorgeous Rock Hudson. Doris and Rock play business rivals who can't help falling for each other. The Thrill of it all (1963) - Romatic and funny musical starring ...
...me no Flowers (1964) - Doris plays Judy Kimbal, wife of George (Rock Hudson). George thinks he is dying and starts to make plans for his wife's future. However, Judy finds out and thinks he's having an affair!! This is a great comedy full of misunderstandings!
That Touch of Mink (1962) - This is an 'adult sophisticated comedy', starring Doris and Cary Grant (Doris Day sure did work with some amazing people!). Doris wants romance and marraige but ...

Moulin rouge is a musical admirers dream
Advantages: Great chemistry between main characters ,feel good film .
Disadvantages: The singing throughout the film can get a bit tiresome
In my opinion you must see the film if you like musicals, otherwise you might find the singing a bit off putting .At times the siniging can seem a bit over the top but in general this is what makes the film interesting.It is worth watching just to see the on screen chemistry between Ewan Mcgregor and Nicole Kidman they are a great pairing and seem to have good on screen presence allowing you to follow the romantic tale which is played out .
The ...
