Movie Reviews of Sweet Charity

Movie Review: Sweet Charity
Summary: 5 Stars

I saw the original Broadway musical & went back stage as a kid to get autographs. This is a good rendition, but it is nowhere near what the Orig was. I do recommend this to others, as it is a classic & a fun movie. Gwen Verdon was supreme on Broadray, Shirley MacLaine does her best to replicate her.

Summary of Sweet Charity

Loves a dream to a hostess in a seedy new york dance hall. From the neil simon play. Studio: Uni Dist Corp. (mca) Release Date: 03/04/2003 Starring: Shirley Maclaine John Mcmartin Run time: 149 minutes Rating: G Director: Bob Fosse
After several years as the hottest musical director on Broadway, Bob Fosse made his film directorial debut with this movie version of his Broadway hit, which was based on Fellini's Nights of Cabiria. Shirley MacLaine is terrific as the proverbial hooker with the heart of gold, one who is convinced that she will find the right man if she just turns enough tricks. The Cy Coleman score is a solid one; the film is at its best when Fosse lets his cast of singer-dancers (which includes Chita Rivera, Paula Kelly, and Sammy Davis Jr.) unleash his leggy brand of choreography. While the film suffers from stylistic excesses of the period, you can see the seeds being planted for Fosse's future musical film forays in Cabaret and All That Jazz. --Marshall Fine
