October 2, 2001 — We've got all the details on Moulin Rouge, the first DVD ever created entirely by the film's director!

" No Laws. No Limits. One Rule. Never Fall In Love…but you will on December 18, 2001 when Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment debuts the home video and DVD release of Director Baz Luhrmann’s “fabulous, sexy, witty, and absolutely amazing” (NBC-TV, San Francisco) Moulin Rouge on VHS (for rent) and Special Edition DVD (for sale and rent). Moulin Rouge was a theatrical event, grossing more than $55 million at the box office, and went on to become the year’s biggest pop culture phenomenon, spawning the #1 soundtrack for eight weeks in a row, the #1 single “Lady Marmalade” (featuring Christina Aguilera, Lil’ Kim, Maya, and Pink) for seven weeks in a row, and winning MTV’s “Best Video Of The Year.”

The “dazzling” (New York Daily News) treasure stars Nicole Kidman and Ewan McGregor, and is being hailed as “the first serious major Oscarb contender of the year” (Mike Cidoni, Ackerley Group Television). Marking the first ever DVD created, directed, and produced by the director of the film, the Moulin Rouge Special Edition DVD features more than six hours of exclusive extras developed by Luhrmann (Romeo + Juliet, Strictly Ballroom), immersing the viewer deeper into a film than ever before."
