Or might it be something else? Baz Luhrmann has a very accurate sense of one of the defining features of 21st-century culture: the way that ideas, content, images and sounds flow freely into each other. (An even more massive trend today than it was in 2001.) In this film, the 1848 Alexandre Dumas fils novel The Lady of the Camellias and Verdi’s 1853 opera La traviata meet the Paris of Toulouse-Lautrec, circa 1900. To all this, add songs by David Bowie, Sting, Freddie Mercury and others – arranged for a musical, and spiced up with a little Bollywood sound. Sounds crazy? We shall see – and hear – when, just like at the beginning of the musicals of old, the curtain rises and the overture starts.

Host: András Réz
