French Cancan

Set in 19th-century Paris, Jean Renoir's film centers on the wily impresario Danglard, played by Jean Gabin, who is determined to make the cancan all the rage at the opening of the world-renowned Moulin Rouge. His romantic life becomes complicated as he juggles the love of two beautiful women: an Egyptian belly-dancer and a naive working girl whom he transforms into a cancan star.
