About Moulin Rouge...
McGregor is simply miscast. Lured into teen-idol poses, McGregor’s callow longing is meant to turn the same trick Leonardo DiCaprio did in Luhrmann’s Romeo + Juliet. Several remarks about Christian’s "large talent" are actually sly references to the sizable endowment McGregor displayed in The Pillow Book. But the audience Luhrmann panders to won’t catch such misdirected camp.
hehe, his "large talent". *snicker*
