Key Information

Director: John Huston
Starring: José Ferrer, Colette Marchand, Zsa Zsa Gabor, Suzanne Flon
Based On: The 1950 novel of the same name by Pierre La Mure

The movie tells the story of the physically disabled painter Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec (played by José Ferrer), who, due to a childhood accident that stunted his legs, believes he can never find true love. He immerses himself in the vibrant but gritty world of the Moulin Rouge, finding artistic inspiration and a sense of belonging among the dancers and outcasts.
The designer of this specific German movie poster for the 1952 film Moulin Rouge is an artist credited simply as Rosie. This artist created the artwork for the East German release of the film. Other versions of the movie poster from different countries were designed by other artists, such as Boris Streimann for a different version.
Poster Description
The poster is a vibrant, painted illustration that captures the lively atmosphere of the Moulin Rouge cabaret in the style associated with Henri de Toulouse-Lautrec's work, which the film is about. It features dynamic can-can dancers in white dresses and black stockings, energetically kicking their legs high in the air on the left side. In the foreground on the right, a man with a top hat (representing the artist Toulouse-Lautrec) is seated at a table, drawing in a sketchbook. The background is a warm, red-toned interior, complete with a stage and audience silhouettes, and bold German text advertising the film is overlayed on the top half.
