Cabaret 50th Anniversary

PG , 130 Minutes

Set in Berlin in 1931, Cabaret follows flamboyant American Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli), a singer in a cabaret nightclub who falls in love with a British academic Brian Roberts (Michael York). Matters get complicated when a wealthy and decadent playboy Maximilian von Heune (Helmut Griem) enters the scene and their love triangle plays out against the rise of the Nazi party and the collapse of the Weimar Republic.

Berlin, 1931. As Nazism rises in Germany, flamboyant American Sally Bowles (Liza Minnelli) sings in a decadent nightclub and falls in love with a British language teacher (Michael York) -- whom she shares with a homosexual German baron. But Sally's small, carefree, tolerant and fragile cabaret world is about to be crushed under the boot of the Nazis as Berlin becomes a trap from which Sally's German friends will not escape in this ground-breaking, blockbuster film version of the Broadway musical Cabaret.
