Inside the Cabaret it's all fun and games but outside the Nazi party is starting to gain momentum and acceptance from Germans. The film would go on to win 8 Oscars , the most of any movie from 1972. However, it would not win Best Picture as that went to a small film you may have heard of called The Godfather.

If you enjoyed Cabaret I highly recommend you check out both Sweet Charity, which was Fosse's debut film before Cabaret. Which is more of a classic musical than his quasi deconstruction of Cabaret and also what I think is one of the best movie's every made, Fosse's semi autobiographical All That Jazz, which is based on his experiences making Lenny the same time as he's staging Chicago.
