I have just been forced to watch some bits of MOULIN ROUGE, the movie. I hated it before I ever saw any, and the pieces I have seen have done nothing but make me loathe it. It is absolutely the opposite of anything I want to see in films, not to mention wrecking one of my favourite songs. (I loathe Elton John, but one has to concede that he wrote some damn good songs, and none better than "A song for you".)

I found out how to enjoy it-- have it on in the background, while you're writing or gaming or knitting or cooking. Then the beautiful outfits and cool songs will come through, without the bone-headed storyline.

Well, but in that case, why not just buy an Elton John CD - or of whichever of the songs you like most - and spare your TV altogether?

Because I usually am sharing the TV with many other people, and what I want is not an object.

Oh. Beg pardon.

Bah, why should you? They don't. ;^)
