Cabaret | BFI 75

Cabaret

Cabaret is one of those film musicals whose cultural and stylistic influence extend well beyond the cinema. It confirmed Bob Fosse's status as one of the boldest choreographers of the 20th century and gave Liza Minnelli an early peak in her film career. The film works a sinister, uncomfortable magic which sets it apart as a uniquely powerful film musical.

scary

the first time I watched this film the scene with the angelic boy singing in the beer garden was scarey as hell in the way it lulled you into a idea and idiology

As for Joel Grey he was just fantastic
