French Cancan
French Cancan
Nineteenth-century Paris comes vibrantly alive in Jean Renoir’s exhilarating tale of the opening of the world-renowned Moulin Rouge. Jean Gabin plays the wily impresario Danglard, who makes the cancan all the rage while juggling the love of two beautiful women—an Egyptian belly-dancer and a naive working girl turned cancan star.

A delight to watch. Beautiful photography and a very rich, cheerful and energetic scene direction. It even has a quick appearance of Edith Piaf!
