Let's Take A Liza Break

.


That there is a clip from the 40th Anniversary BluRay release of Bob Fosse's Cabaret, which is out next week, and my god can you believe how good it looks? The clarity, the color. Gorgeous. You'd think that this might be the sort of news I, a professed musical snubber, wouldn't care about - well you'd be wrong. You don't know me! Come on now, Cabaret rises above the chaff. (As does the other Fosse musical I have seen, All That Jazz.) Course it doesn't hurt that there's all that Michael York and Helmut Griem sexual tension...

I've always said and I hope who or whomever is reading this that , I always thought Britney Soears with her doe-like eyes looks a lot like Liza Minnelli/Judy Garland anyone agree with me disagree with me.

Back in the day, Liza Minnelli was actually pretty goddamned fabulous. It was long, long ago but this movie proves that thesis.
