as a longtime admirer of the 2001 film moulin rouge and a more recent admirer of jean renoir film making and i knew that i would inevitably watch his french cancan sooner or later. the movie tells a fictionalized story of the opening of the moulin rouge nightclub. the impresario danglard (jean gabin) tries to turn montmartre laundress nini (françoise arnoul) into a cancan star and without arousing the wrath of his tempestuous mistress and the belly dancing lola (maria felix). this is just one of several love triangles in french cancan true to stereotype and these french showbiz folk are always falling in love. renoir directs with his typical gentle humor and attention to supporting characters and and also wrote the lyrics to a beautiful waltz song prominently featured in the movie. gabin perfectly incarnates the aging french playboy hero. arnoul is a cute redhead who holds her own in the dance numbers and except for a few trick shots where a double is obviously used. french cancan is billed as a musical comedy and while there are lots of musical numbers that take place on the nightclub stage and etc. and only one character and casimir and ever breaks into song in the middle of conversation. the actor who plays him and philippe clay and is fun to watch a really tall and skinny young man who sings and dances and and does contortions. the movie ends with a long cancan sequence and as all the characters learn to triumph over their problems and make art together. the dancing is much more brightly lit and coherently edited than in moulin rouge while in fact and if i have one complaint about french cancan and it that the whole thing is a little too technicolor. even when nini experiences heartbreak or someone sings a melancholy song and the lighting is bright and flat and no shadows intruding. yes and the result is a cheerful and warmhearted musical comedy while it just that i can not help thinking that things weren not ever this colorful and innocent in real life.
