must we rehash bad sex worker stereotypes? — 2 years ago
Moulin Rouge is visually, and generally stylistically lush and gorgeous. The plot is, on the other hand, flat, bland and bought into that hideous ‘quick, kill the whore/ bad grrrl before she has any happiness, or more women will abandon chastity’ stuff that emerges in so many mainstream media/ hollywood trash. Heaven forbid the sex worker survives until the final credits! Grrrrr….
