特别广播英语第 367 课：Moulin Rouge 红磨坊-1

When Baz Luhrmann goes to work, the result is always something unique. 只要贝兹路曼着手工作，就总会有些特别的结果。

Luhrmann specializes in creating mythological worlds and then heightening the viewer's experience of them with expert techniques and unconventional concepts. 路曼擅长创造神话的世界，他通过熟练的手法和非常规的理念，提升观众对于神话的认识。

His last project was Romeo and Juliet, in which he brought Shakespeare's Elizabethan poetry to a postmodern setting. 在他最近的一部作品，《罗密欧与 朱丽叶》中,路曼赋予了这部莎士比亚戏剧一个后现代派的风格。

This year he focuses on nineteenth-century France in Moulin Rouge, where it seems that everyone is breaking out into song, and to boot, they're singing familiar modern pop songs. 今年，他又把注意力集中到了十九世纪法国的《红磨坊》一剧上。在剧中,角色个个开口唱歌，唱的甚至是人们非常熟悉的现代流行歌曲！

The movie stars Ewan McGregor, recently of Star Wars fame, and Nicole Kidman. 这部电影由主演《星球大战》而声名大噪的伊旺·麦奎格及妮可·基曼领衔主演。

The former plays a penniless poet who goes against his father's wishes by moving to the Bohemian Monmartre, France, and entering its sordid world of sex, drugs, and fast living. 前者饰演一名身无分文的诗人，因违背了父亲的意愿，而浪迹在充斥着性爱、毒品、放荡而堕落的法国蒙马特地区。

He is hired to create an extravaganza for the famous Moulin Rouge nightclub, and during his time there, he falls in love with the nightclub's highest-paid entertainer and courtesan, Satine, played by Kidman. 他在知名的红磨坊俱乐部工作，负责一个娱乐秀的创作，就在这段时间，他同 妮可·基曼饰演的莎婷小姐坠入情网。她是这家俱乐部里薪水最高的表演者，但她同时也是个高级娼妓。
