Bob Fosse

Director

American dancer, choreographer, director and filmmaker, known for a distinctive jazz-choreography style and films such as Cabaret and All That Jazz.

Won the Academy Award for Best Director for Cabaret and received multiple Tony Awards; known for the signature "Fosse" choreography style.

Two DeBaser reviews praise Fosse's cinematic and choreographic achievement. Cabaret is highlighted as a modern musical that juxtaposes cabaret spectacle with the rise of Nazism. Lenny is described as an uncomfortable, black-and-white tribute to Lenny Bruce and a defense of freedom of expression. Performances by Liza Minnelli and Dustin Hoffman are singled out as exceptional.

For:film enthusiasts, musical theatre fans, students of choreography and cultural history

 I used the adjective uncomfortable because the name in the title is that of Lenny Bruce, a famous comedian who in his lifetime greatly unsettled the conformists of America’s hypocritical and moralistic society.

 Cabaret is unanimously considered the best example of a modern musical.
