This is no ordinary musical. Part of its success comes because it doesn't fall for the old clich that musicals have to make you happy. Instead of cheapening the movie version by lightening its load of despair, director Bob Fosse has gone right to the bleak heart of the material and stayed there well enough to win an Academy Award for Best Director.Full Review

Cabaret is one of those immensely gratifying imperfect works in which from beginning to end you can literally feel a movie coming to life.Full Review
