 |  | TIRED OF WAITING, BUT I'LL WAIT NONETHELESS |  |
I'll make it short: one of the top films of the 70s; one of the most disappointing DVDs of the 2000s. But I can't bring myself to rant; WB came to the rescue on ALL THE PRESIDENT'S MEN, DELIVERANCE, NETWORK, and DOG DAY AFTERNOON, to mention a few. Until they rescue CABARET from a similarly shoddy series of editions, I'll wait before giving them my money for this one. But I have faith. C'mon, 'Bros.!
October 30, 2008Liza at her absolute best. Fantastic entertainment. Joey Grey is phenomenal. I can, and now will, watch this one over and over and over.
October 24, 2008The quality of the DVD was fine. I didn't care much for the movie though.

Although a musical, Cabaret is not silly or awkward as all but one of the songs takes place on the stage of the Cabaret, and the one exception is performed at a political rally (of sorts). Songs and story alike are brutally realistic as the facade of morality is stripped away to reveal how people really act when their needs are not being met. But this is not a gloomy movie. Rather, it is entertaining - and overtly seductive, being directed and choreographed by Bob Fosse, the master of sexual choreography.
October 14, 2008I first saw Cabaret on Broadway in April 1968, wit the original Broadway Cast. I thought that it was fantastic. We talked about it for several days after seeing the production.We enjoyed the play so much that when the movie was released in 1972 we were in no hurry to see it knowing that it couldn’t compare with the play. After several friends encouraged us to see it we gave in, took a drive to the local multiplex, bought the tickets and reluctantly entered the darkened theater expecting to be proven right in that no movie could possible be better then the Broadway play. How wrong we were, the move was so far superior to the play it was like it was two different stories. Happily some of the songs that didn’t work on Broadway were left out and the movie cast did great credit to all of the music in the show. In my eyes nobody but Liza Minnelli could play Sally Bowes. Joel Gray was good on Broadway but he was fantastic in the movie.
