Corrected entry: When Satine is lying on the ground in Christian's arms, her left eyebrow is the normal colour and length, but in a couple of shots later, it has been darkened and lengthened by brown-liner.

Corrected entry: Near the end of the movie, when Satine dies in Christian's arms, she dies with her eyes slightly open, but after about 2 seconds, you can see her eyes close quickly.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the green fairy sequence, the Bohos and Christian do the "Yeah Freedom, Beauty, Truth and Love," and then the Green Fairy sings. The Bohos and Christian are in the backround, holding the same pose while she sings. Then, we cut back to them and they are suddenly doing the marching thing. (00:10:41)
Correction: By the time they cut back to them they started dancing. I don't see how this is a mistake. And even if it is this site allows for a little suspension of disbelief, after all, they are seeing a green fairy and drunk on absinthe.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the Elephant, during Spectacular Spectacular, the Duke walks backwards till he falls into a chair. But throughout the entire scene before that there was never a chair in that area, and never a chance for someone to put a chair there. Before that scene we see Christian enter through the back with no chair, we see Toulouse, Satie, the Argentinean, and the Doctor enter with no chair, and several times while they are introducing Spectacular Spectacular to the Duke there is no chair.
Correction: There is plenty of time when the song starts and when they show the group start singing that someone could of come up the side and put a chair behind the Duke, especially with so many people in the room.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: Satine is at the mirror when Zidler walks in. She turns around and asks "How do I look?" At this point she has her right hand behind her head. The next shot is on Zidler replying, then back to Satine. In this shot her left hand is behind her head, not her right.
Correction: There is plenty of time to change arms while the camera is on Zidler, she is changing arms to pose and show him the dress.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: When Satine is getting dressed to go to the elephant with Christian, whom she believes to be The Duke, she is at the mirror and Marie is tying the back of her dress. Whenever there is a close-up of her in the mirror, you can see people moving in the background, but when it's a wider shot, there is no one there.
Correction: People are moving around backstage. Sometimes they are behind her, sometimes not.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In Satine's 'Diamonds are a Girl's Best Friend' number, she begins wearing the silver outfit with BLACK fishnet tights. We see her 'change' her outfit (the white outfit with feathers), but she doesn't change her tights. Satine, however, finishes the song in light-coloured fishnets.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: When Satine is singing 'Diamonds' when they're on peoples' shoulders and the guy gives her a bracelet, you can see a camera-man and you know it's a camera man because he's not wearing the shirt and tux ensemble.
Correction: I watched this scene three times, even on pause and slow motion, I do not see anyone who is an obvious camera man.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the scene "Like a Virgin", when Zidler and the Duke are on the spinning couch with the dancers around them, both characters are seen on the couch when the Duke sings "makes me strong." However, when the Duke gets up from the couch, Zidler is no longer with him, but in the other room where the Duke and the dancers chase him.
Correction: Actually the Duke sings two lines to the song with the camera in close on his face, Zidler could of gotten up during this time.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: When every one is in the elephant singing 'Spectacular Spectacular,' Toulouse is wearing a blanket on his head when they say "muscle men, contortionists, intrigue, danger and..." But when they cut to Toulouse saying "and romance" he does not have a blanket on his head. Occurs on the DVD of Moulin Rouge and on the tape.
Correction: You can see it is the curtain on his head, not a blanket. It has fallen off by the time they cut back to him, you can tell because it is swinging in the background.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: When Satine and Christian are discovered by Zidler, she is wearing a dress with a V-neck and the right side of her hair is down. Then you see her walk away and she ends up wearing a high collar and her hair is pulled up while she sings. She wears this same outfit and hairdo a few days later. (01:00:35)
Correction: This scene is confusing if you aren't watching carefully. When Satine stops singing and you see her coughing and in another outfit, it is a different scene. You can tell because Christian is typing and narrating "How could I know in those last fatal days." meant to show that Satine is dying.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the elephant love medley Satine's hair is parted on the right side for most of the scene but at the end when they kiss inside the elephant it's parted on the left instead.
Correction: I am watching this now and her hair has been parted the same the entire song.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the Elephant, during the Love Medley, when Ewan tells Nicole that they should be lovers...an arm of the Windmill passes over his shoulder. The shot goes to Nicole and then back to Ewan, with the arm passing over again. According to the rest of the film, the windmill would have had to have been going much faster at that moment.
Correction: As the arm passes over his shoulder, you can see another arm on the bottom getting ready to go up the side of Ewan, there is plenty of time for that arm to reach his shoulder.

Moulin Rouge (2001)
Corrected entry: In the scene where Satine and Christian have been kissing right before Zidler discovers them, Christian's face is covered with lipstick kisses. Moments later, it is not.
