	Cabaret (film) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The film is set in Berlin during the Weimar Republic in 1931 prior to the coming to power of the Nazis under Adolf Hitler.
		The film is largely made in low light and has a film noir feel, although it was filmed in color.
		In an interview given at the time of the film's release, Liza Minnelli said you could tell she was the star of the cabaret the movie is set in because she's the only performer with shaved armpits.

	Film Review: Cabaret Balkan directed by Goran Paskaljevic A deeply pessimistic film
		The film begins with an introduction by Boris (Nikola Ristanovski), a cabaret-style master of ceremonies, who tells the audience that he is going to mess up their minds.
		Obviously Paskaljevic is not producing a documentary film about the impact of a decade of economic breakdown and war on the Balkans, nor is he obliged to incorporate a political analysis of the disintegration of the former Yugoslavia.
		But his film should be animated by some understanding of the broader social and political factors that have produced a crisis for millions in the region, and from that strive to create characters who are more than comic book figures.

	Cabaret Balkan Movie Review by Anthony Leong (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		"Cabaret Balkan", which was a major hit last year in the Former Yugoslavia and went on to win the Best Picture Award at a number of European film festivals, was originally slated for North American release in the spring of this year.
		The film opens in the titular Cabaret Balkan, where a garish-looking master of ceremonies lambastes the audience with a monologue that bluntly encapsulates the absurdly comic and perversely-horrific situations that are about to unfold on one night in the decaying city of Belgrade.
		The film is marked by a number of memorable scenes, which is remarkable, considering that most of the characters appear on the screen for less than a total of ten minutes, providing little time for character development.

	Cabaret 101 - Part 1
		However, the history of cabaret culture began in 1881 with the opening of Le Chat Noir in the Monmartre district of Paris.
		The overthrow of the kaiser, the revolutionary tumult that resulted in the establishment of a Social-Democratic republic, and the hardships of the inflation period were the troubled waters in which cabaretists could fish with spectacular success.
		America's cabarets were effectively forced out of business when the Volstead Act made the sale of liquor illegal in late 1918.

	I Viddied It On the Screen-Cabaret
		Cabaret director Bob Fosse is one of the theater world’s best-known and best-regarded theater directors, but this film seems extremely a-theatrical.
		Cabaret is a brilliant film built upon a rotten and weak foundation.
		Cabaret Balkan did it right, but that film is of course just an homage or a work in the same key.

	BBC - Films - review - Cabaret Balkan
		It is also the first Serbian film to have been theatrically released there and to have premiered in Sarajevo in an event sponsored by the UN.
		Paskaljevic's symbolic reading of Yugoslavia is always clear but never pretentious, and his sturdy style usually involves explosive encounters between two individuals, filmed in close-up, whose faces betray anxiety, stupidity and the desperation of those who bear witness as their country continues on a road to hell.

	Stomp Tokyo Video Reviews - Cabaret
		Fortunately, this film is probably her best, and it just happens to fit the theme of our Spring 1998 Film Series.
		Cabaret is a kind of movie they don't make any more, a kind of movie called a "musical." These days, if you want to see a musical, you have to either watch The Simpsons or Disney movies.
		In Cabaret, the musical numbers are technically occurring on the stage of the KitKat club, but almost all of them comment on the plot in some way.

	PlanetPapers - Cabaret
		The initial establishment of the female protagonist, Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli), is also undertaken in the opening routine and the character is far from distinctive as she stands on the stage with 'the cabaret girls'.
		Although the cabaret world is false and often grotesque, at least she is one of its central focuses.
		Sally 'loves a cabaret' for all it gives her, yet as the audience we have come to question its values by the conclusion.

	Cabaret
		Throughout the film the skits performed in the nightclub reflect in a comedic way what is going on in the world at the time.
		Overall, this film was very interesting because it addressed some issues that were very controversial yet, realistic considering the times in which it took place.
		Cabaret is based on Christopher Isherwood’s Berlin stories and John Van Druten’s 1955 Broadway show, “I Am a Camera.” Director Bob Fosse cast Liza Minnelli to play the role of Sally Bowles, a performer at the Kit Kat Klub who won’t hesitate to use sex to further her career.

	Film & TV: Cabaret Balkan (Austin Chronicle . 10-11-99)
		Not a movie of politics, this is instead a movie of emotions about a place where war and blood feuds have corrupted the population for so long that a culture of violence and insanity has become the norm.
		The film begins in a cabaret as a decadent Joel Grey-like emcee promises to "fuck with our minds." Episodes that follow include a fender-bender in which the victim starts jumping on the hood of the car that hit him and smashing its windshield before going to the driver's home and vandalizing that.
		One character explains that the Balkans are the "asshole of the world" and then goes on to explain that the Cabaret is the "hemorrhoid" on the asshole.

	Salon.com Arts & Entertainment \| "Cabaret"
		"Cabaret," an upsetting, almost revolutionary work in its time, is now regarded as a classic musical, which is another way of saying it has become semipermanent camp.
		Actually, "Cabaret" was the second of his five movies, and they're all worthwhile.
		One of the two DVD documentaries is a brief on-location film made to accompany the original release, which mostly conveys the sense that Fosse's Munich set was at least as debauched as the Kit Kat itself.

	Cabaret
		Now, in all fairness, most of the singing in Cabaret takes place in the Kit-Kat club, so the applause is not as disruptive as it is for, say, "The Sound of Music", wherein we all applaud the children going to their bedrooms, or a nun dancing on what is supposed to be a hillside.
		"Cabaret" is loosely based on a book by Christopher Isherwood that is a fictionalization of his life in Berlin during the rise of the Nazis.
		In "Cabaret", the music is organically and symbolically linked to the drama, and becomes a metaphorical part of the narrative.

		He turned his theater into a cabaret space, the patrons seated at tables, the dividing proscenium eliminated.
		But the proscenium is back in place, and despite a row of tables across the front of the auditorium, the immediacy of the cabaret setting is gone.

	Amazon.co.uk: Cabaret: Music: Original Soundtrack (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-16)
		The songs are in the same orderas they were in the film, which does mean that when you're listening to the soundtrack that not only can you follow the story in your head but there are nice contrasts in tone and mood, especially where the refreshingly traditional 'Tomorrow Belongs to Me' is concerned.
		If you liked the film, you'll love the soundtrack and the voice combination of Joel Grey (the master of ceremonies who appears in most of the songs on the album) and Liza is perfect when you listen to the differences in their tones and power of volume.
		The title track Cabaret needs no comment as it is so familiar, but it does encapsulate the mood of the film very well.

		The final shot of the hit film CABARET is a Nazi meeting reflected in a mirror, providing the chilling historical subtext for this groundbreaking musical movie, set in prewar Berlin.
		CABARET was a convention-shattering story that dealt with themes like bisexuality that were still under the radar in the US.
		I saw the film in 1972 it was wonderful, it still is. This year I visited New York, the third day I visited GROUND ZERO to view what evil people can do, it was so moving.

		Cabaret the movie doesn't share many songs in common with the original stage version - it still has "Willkommen," "Two Ladies," "Tomorrow Belongs To Me," a German version of "Married," "If You Could See Her," and "Cabaret" - but that's it.
		The film is based on "The Berlin Stories" by Christopher Isherwood (written between 1935 and 1939), who lived in the city in the early 1930s.
		The film effectively plays out the irony of this contrast between a "moral" rural Germany increasingly drawn to the appeal of a profoundly immoral and murderous movement, and the "immoral" decadence of urban Berlin, many of whose cabaret performers would probably wind up in concentration camps within a few years.

	Cabaret Balkan or the Powder Keg
		This film used to be called Powder Keg, and still is called that in Serbian, but for the English audience it had to change its name.
		This film is a step away from Paskaljevic's previous work Someone Else's America, which was worm and fuzzy and told as a beautiful fairy tale.
		It is a film about a country where anyone who takes a weapon has a right to call themselves a Lord and has an ability to kill, just because they fancy it, where nothing but violence made the rich, from where people are fleeing faster than from any country in the world.

		In Cabaret, Liza Minnelli stars as American Sally Bowles, an entertainer at the Kit Kat Club, who is romanced by two men – a rich German baron and a reserved English academic struggling with his sexual identity.
		Cabaret is Liza Minnelli’s “Mona Lisa” of sorts, one great work that makes up for an otherwise sketchy film career, the way that the “Mona Lisa” obscures the fact that Leonardo seldom finished any of his works.

		This would be most surprising, as they are, in fact, Jewish (This fact has not stopped openly racist and anti-Semitic rock groups, like Skrewdriver, from recording the song and performing it at White Power rallies).
		Goofs: Continuity: During the song "Cabaret", Sally's "cross your heart" halter dress changes from crossing left-over-right to right-over-left and back between shots (probably a flipped shot).
		Joel Grey's raunchy "Two Ladies" on the Kit Kat stage to the hysterical delight of the decadent crowd reminds us that all sexual propriety has broken down (including in the lives of the main characters, now involved in a threeway with one of the few Germans who still has some wealth intact).

		For the opening shot [that pans across a room as Lilia is cleaning, during which she hears music outside and starts to dance], I wanted a continuous movement in a long, wide shot that portrays her daily routine without any fantasies.
		I did change the cabaret a little, since it had to be adapted to Lilia’s character and her way of seeing things.
		Amari: The dance is filmed according to Lilia’s emotions and the way she evolves throughout the movie.

		The reviewer probably got that idea by listening to Natasha Richardson sing "Cabaret" and believed that because Sally is crying, she must realize that she lost everything and that she is stuck in some god awful place.
		Because of this, when she sings "Cabaret" she has to make herself believe in what she is singing.
		It is creepy watching the scene in the film, and even hearing it on the soundtrack, as it does stand out...the youth were persuasive and doing what they had been brainwashed to do: convince and create a hate filled patriotism.
