Negative Positive
Title: Moulin Rouge (Soundtrack)
Review: The movie was spectacular for its sound, among other things, so this supposed "soundtrack" CD is a tremendous disappointment. The sound mixing is atrocious; the singing of Nicole Kidman and her leading man is overwhelmed by the orchestra. Each track has different sound levels, requiring one to change the volume constantly. The opening song in the movie, which is a stunning rendition of "Nature Boy," is sung by a different singer on the CD, a major disappointment. (How CAN this be called a soundtrack, then?) And one can only wonder why some of the best music of the movie wasn't chosen to be included! Save your money. I wish I had!
