A Cinematic Classic From 1928.
Parysia is the rage of Paris. She has a daughter, secretly engaged to Andre, and the boy's aristocratic father objects to the alliance because of Margaret's mother being a revue artist.
The girl is naïve and simple, and the boy falls heavily for the mother, who goes to the father and gets his consent to the marriage. Andre intends to commit suicide by disconnecting the brakes to his racing car, as he cannot face the prospect of loving the mother and marrying the daughter. He is going to the country to try to fetch his father in for the wedding and frames the 'accident' to happen on the way. Calling on the girl and her mother before he goes, he is taken ill, and Margaret fetches the car to fetch papa.
When Andre recovers he tells Parysia of her daughter's danger and goes off in a high-powered car to save her. But is he too late?
Director Ewald André Dupont took almost a year to make Moulin Rouge at a production cost of $500,000, a huge amount for 1928.
