Moulin Rouge!2001
The Duke:
I don't like this ending...
Zidler:
Don't like the ending, my dear Duke?
The Duke:
Why should the cortesan chose the penniless sitar player over the maharajah who is offering her a lifetime of security, that's real love. Once the sitar player has satisfied his lust he will leave her with nothing. I suggest that the cortesean chose the maharajah.
Toulouse-Lautrec:
But, but tell me, that ending does not uphold the Bohemian ideals of truth, beauty, freedom, and -
The Duke:
I DON'T CARE ABOUT YOUR REDICULOUS DOPER! WHY SHOULDN'T THE CORTESAN CHOSE THE MAHARAJAH?
Christian:
BECAUSE SHE DOESN'T LOVE YOU!... Him... Hi-him, she doesn't love... she doesn't love him...
The Duke:
Oh I see... Monsieur Zidler, the play will be rewritten with the cortesan chosing the maharajah and without the lovers' secret song. It will be rehearsed in the morning, ready for the openning tomorrow night...
Zidler:
But, my dear Duke, that will be quite impossible
Satine:
Harold, the Duke is being treated appallingly. These silly writers let their imaginations run away with themselves. Why don't you and I have a little supper, and then we can tell Monsieur Zidler how we would like the story to end...
