Synopsis
Hit musical film of decadent, pre-war Berlin, based on the Kander-Ebb musical from John van Druten's play I AM A CAMERA, which, in turn, was based on Christopher Isherwood's novel GOODBYE TO BERLIN. Sally Bowles is an American singer who falls in love with Brian who is bisexual.

5.0 out of 5 stars Willkommen, Bienvenue, Welcome., 29 Jun 2009
By pmov (London, UK) - See all my reviews
I really hope Fremantle do justice to this landmark film. Even on DVD Cabaret has only ever been available in pan-and-scan or non-anamorphic letterboxed versions which hardly do justice to it's superb cinematography. I'm praying that the delays to the previously announced release date are allowing this great film to finally get the polish and sparkle it deserves.

This is Bob Fosse's finest film and it's my favourite musical because it dispenses with the normal conceit of having people burst into song for no apparent reason. The songs here are mainly performances within the Kit-Kat club and so the inherent artificiality of the musical form is completely avoided.

It's a grim tale told with humour, panache and style. Set in 1939, the underlying threat of Nazi oppression is palpable and skillfully woven into a tale of Sally Bowles, performer in one of Berlin's many decadent small clubs that thrived at the time. Minelli is terrific (career best) and Joel Grey as the MC is as weird as he is wonderful.

Great songs, quirky choreography, pin-sharp cinematography, imaginative lighting and snappy editing, there's absolutely nothing to criticise. So if you've never seen 'Cabaret' before, prepare yourself for a treat. The rest of us can watch and enjoy once more a pitch-perfect team both in front and behind the lens delivering a movie milestone (and making it look effortless).
