Product Description:
Willkommen bienvenue welcome to Cabaret. The winner of eight Academy Awards it boasts a score by the legendary songwriting partnership behind another film that would energize the movie musical genre with equal razzle-dazzle 30 years later: Chicago's John Kander and Fred Ebb. Inside the Kit Kat Club of 1931 Berlin starry-eyed singer Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli) and an impish emcee (Joel Grey) sound the clarion call to decadent fun while outside a certain political party grows into a brutal force. Cabaret caught lightning (and won Oscars) for Minnelli Grey and director Bob Fosse who shaped a triumph of style and substance. Come to this Cabaret old chum. You'll never want to leave.Running Time: 110 min.Format: DVD MOVIE Genre: MUSICALS/MUSICALS UPC: 085392798629
Amazon.com essential video:
Winner of eight Academy Awards, including Best Director (Bob Fosse), Best Actress (Liza Minnelli), and Best Supporting Actor (Joel Grey), Cabaret would also have taken Best Picture if it hadn't been competing against The Godfather as the most acclaimed film of 1972. (Francis Ford Coppola would have to wait two years before winning Best Director, for The Godfather, Part II.) Brilliantly adapted from the acclaimed stage production, which was in turn inspired by Christopher Isherwood's Berlin Stories and the play and movie I Am a Camera, this remarkable musical turns the pre-war Berlin of 1931 into a sexually charged haven of decadence. Minnelli commands the screen as nightclub entertainer Sally Bowles, who radiantly goes on with the show as the Nazis rise to power, holding her many male admirers (including Michael York and Helmut Griem) at a distance that keeps her from having to bother with genuinely deep emotions. Joel Grey is the master of ceremonies at the Kit Kat Klub who will guarantee a great show night after night as a way of staving off the inevitable effects of war and dictatorship. They're all living in a morally ambiguous vacuum of desperate anxiety, determined to keep up appearances as the real world--the world outside the comfortable sanctuary of the cabaret--prepares for the nightmarish chaos of war. Director-choreographer Fosse achieves a finely tuned combination of devastating drama and ebullient entertainment, and the result is one of the most substantial screen musicals ever made. The dual-layered Special Edition widescreen DVD includes an exclusive 25th-anniversary documentary, Cabaret: A Legend in the Making, a 1972 promotional featurette, a photo gallery, production notes, the theatrical trailer, and more. --Jeff Shannon

Christopher Isherwood, the author of THE BERLIN STORIES, where the character Sally Bowles came from in the first place, is quoted in the documentary "Chris and Don" as saying that Liza Minnelli wasn't right for this movie because she was far too good since Sally Bowles was an amateur performer and there was nothing that resembled an amateur about Minnelli's performance. She gives a performance here that is perfect and deserves to be seen again and again. She comes alive in every scene (her mother ... Read More

Cabaret, the on-stage musical, is one of the most enthralling and moving musicals to be ever found on Broadway. It's message and theme are both important and beautiful. The only problem is that when they attempted to adapt it to the screen, the took a beautiful show, and ripped it apart. The plot, characters, and a few songs (Mein Herr, Money) are completely distorted and absolutely different than the original show. This movie should have had a different title other than "Cabaret" because this ... Read More

I have not seen this in 35 years, and I was utterly enthralled to see it again. There are so many ways to see this films that it has got to be one of the best I have ever seen. First, there is the historical reconstruction, a snapshot of a very difficult period in late Weimar, which would result in Hitler's regime. Even the images in the film reflected art from the period: you see images by Grosz and many others appearing in subtle glimpses.
Second, there is the drama of the two ... Read More

One of the best movie musicals ever! Worth all the 8 Oscars it received in 1972. Liza Minnelli, Michael Your and Joel Grey are unforgettable in this story of 1931 Berlin, when the Nazis were coming to power. You laugh, you cry, you fear for the worst... The music thrills you, shocks you, touches you... An experience of a life time. This movie never gets old- you'd think it was made yesterday. I strongly recommend- you will not regret!
