About this product

Product Information

The final shot of the hit film CABARET is a Nazi meeting reflected in a mirror, providing the chilling historical subtext for this groundbreaking musical movie, set in prewar Berlin. Not since GONE WITH THE WIND (1939) had Hollywood produced a more successful film. CABARET was a convention-shattering story that dealt with themes like bisexuality that were still under the radar in the US. Additionally, CABARET made the enormously talented Liza Minnelli an American icon.Minnelli plays Sally Bowles, an aspiring singer and dancer. The main plot revolves around her relationship with two different men and her life as a singer at the Kit Kat Klub. The film utilizes the traditional conventions of American musical theater while adding in the fiendishly painted Master of Ceremonies (Joel Grey) who comments on the proceedings through song and dance. Director Bob Fosse showcases the range of his vision as a director of stage and screen, serving as both choreographer and musical director.Based on the Kander-Ebb musical from John van Druten's play I AM A CAMERA (which, in turn, was derived from Christopher Isherwood's novel GOODBYETO BERLIN), CABARET was nominated for 10 Academy Awards and won eight,making it one of the most acclaimed films in movie history.

  • Love This Musical

    I probably saw this musical 10 times when it came out way back when, and I still love it. Joel Grey and Liza Minnelli are both extremely talented. Highly recommended if you like good singing and dancing.

  • Cabaret, The Magic

    I don't much have a thing about movie musical at all, but when I saw Liza Minnelli in the movie Cabaret, it blow me always. Great fun, great acting, great all around story tell. It just work it's magic on me. Bob Fosse, at his best as the director of Cabaret. A movie musical that will stand the testy of time.

  • OUTSTANDING!

    I've been involved with musical theater locally for over 50 years. I've been directly involved with this musical three times on stage in the past. The video was hard to find until (as usual) I could get it through you. Many thanks for acquiring for me. It is a joy to watch and sing along. When I'm on stage in the show the director tells me to mouth the words I sing so badly.

  • Classic, Entertaining but instructive

    Classic video. Entertaining but reminder of how Nazis slowly took over, used violence to suppress opponents, terrorized Jewish businesses and Jews, eventually round up and kill Jews.
