From within relentless fanfare and spectacle, Cabaret unearths the recurring nightmare of how people continue to live their lives in the face of encroaching authoritarianism and violence. The legendary Bob Fosse seduces his audience with a world of debauchery, sex, and elegance all while an overwhelming sense of evil creeps under the surface. A timeless, titanic achievement in cinema, Cabaret remains, 50 years after its release, a rare film that feels like only one person could have made it.
