Cabaret (1972)
from GoodTrash GenreCast · host GoodTrash Media
Willkommen, bienvenue... welcome fiends and familiars, ghouls and gals to the third blindspot in Dalton's lineup, Bob Fosse's Cabaret. This musical is set in Berlin in the early 1930s—it was a different time. But the film was developed amidst the Nixon era. So, it has politics and art. Or is that redundant? We look at the rise of Liza Minnelli, the style of Bob Fosse, and the antifascist messaging of Cabaret to see if there are any contemporary concerns to consider. Is it a good night at the club? Or another bust on an amateur stage? Tune in to find out as we discuss Cabaret.
