What the speakers say it drew on. Each is a speaker's account: “the maker said so” when they report the maker's own words, “the host's read” when the read is theirs.

I Am a Camera: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. lineage (inspiration): I Am a Camera ⇒ Cabaret (the host's read). I Am a Camera, from the Berlin stories, led to Cabaret.
    “I am a camera, which is, of course, uh, the Julie Harris movie that will eventually... Come, Camera, inspires the guys into cabaret, yes.”

What the speakers say drew on it, marked the same way.

Barry Lyndon: 1 line the host's read ×1

  1. people (casting source): Cabaret ⇒ Barry Lyndon (the host's read). Kubrick cast Berenson after loving her in Cabaret.
    “Yeah, he loved her in cabaret.”

Liza Minnelli: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (restraint example): Cabaret → Liza Minnelli. Fosse shot Sally Bowles walking onstage in a medium shot from the back, trusting his lead.
    “I think the restraint and the confidence in his lead actor is so fortifying”

Liza with a Z: 1 line unmapped ×1

  1. unmapped (technique): Liza with a Z → Cabaret. Fosse's concert film is the best example ever of shooting theater for the screen, with edits shaped to hand flicks.
    “I've never seen a better example of shooting theater.”

Ralph Burns: 1 line people ×1

  1. people (composer): Ralph Burns → Cabaret. Burns scored Star 80 after winning Oscars for the last two Fosse movies.
    “who did the score for this and had won the Oscar for the last 2 fall scene movies.”

Star 80: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (character empathy): Star 80 → Cabaret. Fosse's female characters like Sally Bowles and Honey Bruce got rich interior life, which Star 80 lacks.
    “I would even argue, honey, Bruce, like, you know, who really is, like, pretty wonderful.”

The Godfather: 1 line industry ×1

  1. industry (awards rivalry): Cabaret → The Godfather. Fosse beat Coppola for the best director Oscar for Cabaret while The Godfather won picture.
    “Francois Coppola in the Godfather, the guy we use as shorthand for directing a movie.”

Trolls: 1 line theme ×1

  1. theme (theme): Trolls → Cabaret. Can't Stop the Feeling starts as a pleasure and by the end feels menacing, like Tomorrow Belongs to Me in Cabaret.
    “It's like in cabaret when, you know, when the Nazis all start singing, what's it called?”

Fun items about it

  1. fun, about Cabaret: Cabaret beat The Godfather for best director; to Julie it keeps getting more relevant, with the distorted Nazis in the brass at the end.
    “Cabaret beat the godfather.”
