Original Allied Artists 1974 Re-Release One Sheet Poster (27×41) for the Bob Fosse iconic musical, CABARET (1972) starring Liza Minnelli, Michael York, Helmut Griem, and Joel Grey. Based on the Christopher Isherwood story, “A Goodbye to Berlin,” this film tells the story of American entertainer Sally Bowles who comes to decadent Berlin of the early 1930s and goes to work at The Kit-Kat Club. She is the same kind of character as Marlene Dietrich’s famous archetype in “The Blue Angel”—a heartless vamp who drives men crazy and then throws them away like toys. The film works wonderfully on a historical level, on a personal story level, as well as on a purely entertainment level. Fosse recreates in living detail the grotesque sleaze of Berlin’s lowlife during the rise of Nazism. Nominated for ten Academy Awards including Best Picture, it won eight Oscars including Best Director to Fosse, Best Actress to Minnelli, and Best Supporting Actor to Grey. This original re-release one sheet poster is folded and in very fine condition.
