The color definitely plays important roles in the movie. Not only does it emphasize the characteristics of the places, the characters, and the atmosphere of the time period, but it grabs the viewers' attention by using fancy colors. For example, Moulin Rouge can be easily found from the big city because the basic color for this place is red. Yet, the city is very darkish blue;hence, Moulin Rouge where bright red is the main color is clearly underscored and leaves a great impression among the audiences. Moreover, the film also utilizes the monochromatic harmony to describe the city. For instance, when the camera zooms out and shows the entire village, including Moulin Rouge, the entire places are very bluish but have different types of blue depending on the shade or the brightness. Also, triad harmony is utilized in women's dresses. Their dresses contain numerous colors that are similar or opposite to one another and these harmonies create dazzling scenes. Not only the main scenes utilize these color effects, but the beginning of the film also uses the desaturated color to emphasize the fact that the time period is 1900s by showing washed color such as light gray, light brown, or others.
