  • Such a great film. First time I saw this opening scene, I couldn't believe it, quite disturbing, but I loved it!

    HELLO, MEMBER CHANNEL INVITATION

  • man i saw this in middle school by myself. creepy as FCK.

  • i swear they're guys in drag...

  • @thelittleewelamb half of them are. on purpose.

  • these were some very ugly girls

  • 3:09 BURLESQUE SO STOLE THAT FROM CABARET!

  • Brillant!

  • Joel Grey scares me on so many levels and yet I deeply appreciate his music odd..

  • Later the team of Fred Ebb and John Kander were to write the great tune New York, New York, popularized by the legendary Frank Sinatra.

  • the best movie ever

  • fosse is freakin brilliant!!!

  • Awesomee

  • An American singing and speaking certain words in French with a German accent. A small slice of theatrical brilliance that many took for granted when this man played this role. Btw, it's all perfect.

  • Comment removed

  • One thing overlooked about "Cabaret" is that the scenes WITHOUT the Emcee pretty much suck. I enjoy ALL the parts with the Emcee, and fall asleep during the other parts. If all of Cabaret was as good as the Emcee parts, it would have been 10 times as successful, not that it wasn't exremely successful anyway.

  • still to this day haven't worked out who's a man and who's a woman...

  • Drag off between the Joel Grey and Dr. Frank-N-Furter!

  • .There is a delightfully thin & fragile line that separates Joel Grey's character from Jack Nicholson's Joker from Tim Burton's 1989 "Batman". :-)

    Also cool how Joel is wearing more blush & longer eyelashes than any of the chorus girls, of Liza, or even the female impersonator (with the feather). LOL!

  • @ZeldaMarshall Absolutely! Although there are definitely aspects of the revival I appreciate as well.

  • I just LOVE the Otto Dix reference at 0:37!!

  • OMG Joel Grey is fab in this

  • One of the best opening numbers ever written. Hands down. And Joel Gray just tears it up.

  • @ZeperandAzmyth Absolutely right.......the best.

  • Unfortunately the movie totally distracted from the actual play. Read the play and you will not waste your time with the movie (although Joel Grey was fabulous)

  • @fubar3dac Actually, it is interesting to compare the play ("I Am a Camera", by John Van Druten), with the STAGE version of this musical, & with this MOVIE version of the musical. Even between the stage & movie versions, characters are dropped & scenes substituted. The movie version ends up being deliciously darker, with songs being introduced more realistically & true-to-life than in the stage version.

  • thumbs up if you like the guy with the dummy

  • who was a chick and who was a dude?

  • Ce film est une référence!!!

  • The cabaret girls were drag queens.

  • @jckfmsincty no, the blonde one with the fan was

  • @jckfmsincty just that style of make-up

  • it was prophetic then (or reminiscent) and it's becoming so again. 99% and all that.

  • oh this movie <3

  • I think he is sooo beautiful...

  • Hello Stranger ;)

    

  • is it sad that i know all the words to EVERY bloody song in this movie?

  • @princessneko21

    I actually makes you a great person.

  • @entewente well thank you. this movie still happens to be my favorite musical. i taught myself the "mien Herr" routine when i was five.

  • This film is a work of genius

  • the joker's words when ho sall that guy "Why so CRAZY"

  • Joel Grey has a kind of gentleness about him which is especially appealing for the Emcee. His version trumps everybody else's, INCLUDING ESPECIALLY THAT FUCKER ALAN CUMMING.

  • Reminds me of the Joker crossewd with a Ventriloquist's dummy

  • Cabaret must be Bob Fosse's best masterpiece. His better well known creations that he made. Genius.

  • He won an oscar and a tony for this role

  • i totally adore this men...

  • i love bob fosses choreography, it has so much isolation and contraction incorporated into it!

    he truly was one of the greatest jazz choreographers ever! R.I.P. bob!!!

  • the movie version is such shit compared to the play...i hate joel greys interpretation of the emcee...

  • @depeau44 but he was the orgininal emcee from the broadway play

  • @agenttheater5 i know.. but he sounds like shit... its too caricature

  • they sound french but there german

  • Scary thing is that some of the stuff the 'Caberet Girls' are wearing is near enough to todays fashion trends?

  • "Outside, it is windy, but here it is so hot...[whimper]...every night we have the battle to keep the girls from taking off all their clothing! So, don't go away; who knows? Tonight we may lose the battle!" :D

  • Joel Grey looks adorable in this movie.

  • 2:44-45. Joel Grey's cartoon-ish noises. love them.

  • im cabaret

    au cabaret

    to cabaRET

  • Joel Gray is a GENIUS

  • No books don't sing much.

  • And damned good reading : )

  • Read the Isherwood books - amazing, and scary

  • Michael York is a hottie

  • Meine Damen und Herren,

    mesdames et messieurs...

    ladies UND gentlemen.

  • Qué maravilla, me encanta ! Gracias !

  • He soooooo creepy, but the good kind... ; )

  • @Misducky03 Not at all if comparted with actual austere faces aruond....the 'european norme'

  • I saw Joel Gray in Anything Goes on broadway...man I wish I could have seen him on broadway in THIS role! <3

  • OMG I DIDN"T KNOW IT WAS JOEL GREY HOLY CRAP!!!!

  • I like the broadway version better

  • @cargoat of course the broadway verison is always better. Brodway is bettert period.

  • Moi honnêtement j'adore <3<3<3

  • omg luv this movie

  • I really don't understand German, what is he saying/ i love the scene!

  • @nautracer12 Uh, he's saying. Welcome.... uh, plus, he translates everything he says in the other languages (French and German I believe) into English....

  • Scratch that, this is a HELL of a lot scarier then Tomorrow Belongs to Me.

  • @AGuyInAHat you mean because the mirror has teeth?

  • @agenttheater5 I think it's mainly because most of the performers on stage are cross dressers and that most of the men in the audience are getting turned on by them. And also Joel Gray as the emcee is really REALLY creepy. And because the mirror has teeth.

  • @AGuyInAHat you mean because the mirror has teeth?

  • Fosse's best, IMHO.

  • It's annoying that this fantastic film isn't shown more often.Ok,yeah,it does have some pretty graphic scenes in it,but you couldn't really ignore the rise of Nazi-ism just 'cause this was a 'musical'.Liza,Joel and Michael were all magnificent,as were the supporting cast.

  • The real name of this video is willkommen it is simple if u think about it

  • please someone tell me

    

  • @munchster227 Uhhhh Cabaret

  • can anyone tell me what the title of this movie is?

  • Today in Kotka, Finland. Didnt watch.

  • @jaakkojoo I did ;)

  • I like the original emcee as opposed to like the Alan Cumming reprisal. Alan is awesome, but I like the class in the Joel Gray version.

  • Perfect Entrance. Great !

  • The best Fosse film of all time. Miss you Bob!

  • Bob Fosse directing = amazing!

  • can someone tell what this about becasue my school is doing it this year

  • @princessslm1997 It about the life of (two people in general). An American woman who works at a German Cabaret in the time of WW2 and a young man who travels to Berlin and falls in love with her. There's a whole lot more to the story, you should watch it. It's a CLASSIC movie. One of my favs.

  • @Akatsukigirl710 it is a lot before WW2.It goes to show the rise of the Nazi Party in its infancy.

  • life's default number. lol thank you. m

  • I just love this scene from the movie! I adore Bob Fosse's directing and choreography. Been singing this song all day while cleaning my room!

  • @peymaania Yes it was. How funny that it all turned into that Nazi crap, huh?

    Quite a transformation.

  • Génial!tout simplement...

  • the mirror has teeth

  • What the hell did I just watch?

  • Everyones Favorite Game : Spot the Drag Queen!!!

  • @realhxq the beauty of this movie, you dont know who many of the girls in the ballet are born as girls. :)

  • @realhxq

    He is an exaggerated parody of popular german caberet singers during the Weimar republic, not in drag :P

  • @pchwang watch again , and take a closer look at maozie (spellcheck) third girl/or guy.

  • @realhxq that's where burlesque (the film) fails, it doesn't have a drag queen

  • @agenttheater5 maozie moazie moazie!!!

  • @realhxq the man this character is based off of actually was not a drag queen, he wore the makeup to hide his real age.

  • @SuperBecauseican the man in the blue sailor suit with the blond wig? Moazie?

  • Joel Grey always kind of reminded me of John Hurt.

  • @VintageFunkadelic IDK ABOUT THAT BUT HE SURE DOES LOOK LIKE BEN A.K.A DEAN STOCKWELL FROM THE MOVIE, BLUE VELVET LOL

  • @nukecat ...and his eyes and looks sometimes are very much like his daughters', Jennifer Grey, in Dirty Dancing

  • bienvenue au cabaret !

  • es ist lustig wenn man alle 3 sprachen kann. it's fun when you understand all the 3 languages. il m'amuse parce que je peut comprendre tous les 3 langues

  • @cinderellagirls94 Je sais bien? Ich weiss oder? I know right?

  • @BasingstokePSB are you english? bist du englisch? est-ce que tu es anglais???

  • @cinderellagirls94 No, I am Scottish! Nein, ich bin Schottisch! Non, je suis Ecossais!

    And you? Und du? Et tu?

  • Well hell, now I gotta go look at some Marlene Dietrich footage.

  • 2:46 - straight out of teacher training college

  • "Leave your troubles OUTSIDE!"

    Amen!

  • my fav movie of ALL time,just in awe over LIZA ,just love it !!!

  • Lively the french and the cabaret !!!

  • These faggots are SO much better than the Nazis, right? What a joke.

  • my little cousin saw this yesterday, he can't sleep anymore

  • impresionante!!!! genial interpretación!!! me quito el sombrero ante tanta arte de Joel Grey!!!! Such a great artist!!!! amazing!!!!...

  • To Joel Grey, whom I passed and discreetly greeted once in the street in New York, at his very best and without whom Cabaret would not have been complete, Bravo!

  • Joel Grey looks like Goebbels in make-up!

  • Genius

  • AAAAAAAAAAA le mec me fait troppp peur avec sa gueule de chien

  • Each and every one... a wergin

  • This reminds me of a real life joker from batman

  • You gatta love the classics like Jole Grey, but my favorite mc was Allen Cummings. John Stamos wasn't half bad ether.

  • i studied this movie this year. safe to say my family is prepared to kill me if i sing this sond once more

  • Oh my God. I have to sing this Great song at the beginning of our Musical in my school. xD

  • .06..the scariest damn thing I've ever seen awake..

  • The great contrast in this movie is this opening scene of the Weimar era decadence crowd vs. closing shot of the cabaret's 'new audience' later of Nazi officers.

    The idea apparently being that blowzy degeneracy and dissipation give an entree to authoritarian Leftist cults disguised in traditional family values.

  • I love these old classics. Bring back vaudeville damnit.

  • @ThePaperFalcon That's not vaudeville... it's burlesque. There's a difference.

  • wonderfull...is al those years one of my favourits

  • Sarah Jessica Parker?! 2:24

  • he scares me...

  • 0:38 Nice Otto Dix's reference !

  • @YTMakeup nerly similiar to the picture... the glass the cigarret case the hands!! omg!

  • At least one of those dancing girls is a man. I'm sure of it.

  • So fucking gooooooooood!

  • Too bad Joel Grey never got a chance to play The Joker.

  • @DrZaius75 He couldn't have played the Joker. The Joker didn't take it up the ass as often as possible.

  • @Virtuosic1 You haven't read Akham Asylum, have you?

  • @DrZaius75 Nope. Never read it. Did Joel Gray take it up the ass from all the inmates in that story? It wouldn't surprise me at all.

  • @DrZaius75 the reference Please?

  • Something about this clip is going to haunt me in my nightmares...

  • What a movie, a classic....

  • Joel Grey is the ultimate showman. He is the only one for this part. Wonderful!

  • @onebaud There's other fags that could have done just as well.

  • Has Joel Grey ever not been amazing?

  • I use to like boys with big smiles but now I think I like boys with a gang of buxom bitches at his side.

  • Hallo Stranger Hahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaahahahahah­ha

  • brilliant film - great adaptation of Isherwood's book but with something else - 1970's flamboyance, songs which work in context with the movie & dare i say a harbinger of punk! (the dancers that is) hell what do i know - it's a great piece of cinema & that's all that matters eh?

  • Joel Grey is playing a gay man who hates the Nazis of 1931. Cabaret was noted for dark entertainment.

  • Now THIS is Cabaret...

  • I consider Joel Greys performance in this film one of the greatest ever, close to perfect... It's a pity I'm to tall to play any such in theatres, but it's a dream of mine...

  • Just the right balance of charm and total creepiness.

  • The original Rocky Horror Picture Show? JK

  • 2:44 - 2:46 is the best part in the whole song. Hahahaha

  • It's true. The reason I took it so personally is because I believe he's my 'turkey baster' daddy. Sorry I called you a fuck stick.....dip-shit.

  • He won an Oscar for it fuck-stick. By the way , congrats for being creeped out by great showmanship. You're really deep.

  • @rayneholloway1 Who cares if he won an Oscar, he still looks creepy. Why are you taking this so personally?

  • @scarryterry

    I think ur 100% right..... He's just creepy.

    Too damn creepy for me to sympathize with.

    I go to a lot of wine tastings & listen to stupid people going on & on, about "award winning" wines . They're just mindless idiots . If u washed your feet in the wine before serving it, they wouldn't know the difference. They'd still gush about it because of the award or the critics reviews.

    People r like that with movies too, apparently.

  • my high school did this musical for our spring production, i now know all the lyrics. it was by far the funnest musical to put on :D

  • The Master of Ceremonies kinda creeps me out. He's like the scary clown!

  • Classic! No one can touch this performance

  • While Joel's performance is light hearted, quirky, and whimsical (almost innocent), I think I prefer Alan Cumming's. It's a little bit darker, which seems to fit the character of the set more in my opinion.

  • I did not expect that voice...

  • I've been singing this all day. My mom's probably ready to smack me one.

  • @ValtronW Same here hahaha
