What they share

Theysit in Drama / Music territory. If that's the register that drew you to Almost Famous, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What Cabaret is

A musical set in Weimar Germany has to clear a pretty high bar. A performer at a seedy nightclub falls for a visiting Englishman as the Nazi party rises to prominence. It’s hard to fault the commitment to bleakness.
