Cabaret & the Seductive Power of Evil

It’s 1971 in a filthy German nightclub, and Liza Minnelli is starting to think she’s made one of the worst mistakes of her life -- and she's not the only one. But what nobody realizes is that the weird little low-budget queer musical they're making would become the stuff of Hollywood legend. This is the story of Cabaret — the film that made icons out of its stars, transformed the very genre of movie musicals, influenced art and culture for decades to come from Chicago to Schitt’s Creek ... and served as a warning that’s as timely today as it was back then.
