I love this performance of Perfectly Marvelous and Jane Horrock's hammed up accent. It actually becomes endearing, and I think it fits with this personality. The only time you should really hear her voice as a real person is at the end when she says, "What a horrible reason for two people to stay together". It's that unmasking which makes her remarkably vulnerable in contrast to the entire, WARNING PUN, Cabaret of her personality.
i LOVE the entire casting in this version of Cabaret. ESPECIALLY cliff, sally, emcee, and fraulein schneider. they all play the roles in the exact way you'd want them to
This is the way Isherwood would have cast it. He thought Liza was too talented. Sally is supposed to have more guts than talent. Jane makes the story much more layered.
I think people are people, I really do, Cliff. Don't you? I don’t think people should have to explain anything For example, if I should paint my fingernails green, and it just so happens I do paint them green, well, if anyone should ask me why, I say, "I think it's pretty." "I think it's pretty," I reply So if anyone should ask about you and me, you have two alternatives: You can either say, " Oh yes, it’s true; we're living in delicious sin," or you can simply tell the truth and say: [SALLY] I met this perfectly marvelous girl In this perfectly wonderful place As I lifted a glass to the start of a marvelous year Before I knew it, she called on the phone, inviting Next moment I was no longer alone But sat reciting Some perfectly beautiful verse In my charming American style How I dazzled her senses Was truly no less than a crime Now I've this perfectly marvelous girl In my perfectly beautiful room And we're living together And having a marvelous time [CLIFF, spoken] Ah Sally, I'm afraid it wouldn't work out You're much too distracting [SALLY, spoken] Distracting? No, inspiring! [SALLY] She tells me perfectly marvelous tales Of her thrillingly scandalous life Which I'll probably use As a chapter or two in my book And since my stay in Berlin was to force creation What luck to fall on a fabulous source of stimulation And perfectly marvelous too Is her perfect agreement to be Just as still as a mouse While I’m giving my novel a whirl Yes, I’ve a highly agreeable life In my perfectly beautiful room With my nearly invisible Perfectly marvelous girl [CLIFF, spoken] Sally, I can't afford... do you have any money? [SALLY, spoken] A few marks...uh... six? [CLIFF, spoken] Oh god [SALLY, spoken] Oh please Cliff, just for a day or two, please? [CLIFF] I... met... this Truly remarkable girl In this really incredible town And she skillfully managed To talk her way into my room [SALLY] Oh, Cliff! [CLIFF] I have a terrible feeling I’ve said A dumb thing Beside, I've only got one narrow bed [SALLY] We'll think of something
Both of them where perfect in portraing people with no special talent. He was the incarnation of the common guy and she was the excentric chick that do drugs.
Llego tres años tarde pero aquí estááá Letra: "Creo que las personas son personas, de verdad, Cliff. ¿No es así? No creo que la gente deba tener que explicar nada. Por ejemplo, si tuviera que pintarme las uñas de verde, y da la casualidad de que las pinto de verde. Bueno, si alguien me pregunta por qué, digo: "¡Creo que es bonito!" ("Creo que es bonito", respondo). Entonces, si alguien pregunta por ti y por mí, tienes dos alternativas. Puedes decir: "Oh, sí, es verdad. Estamos viviendo en un pecado delicioso". O simplemente puedes decir la verdad y decir: Conocí a esta chica perfectamente maravillosa. En este lugar perfectamente maravilloso Mientras levantaba un vaso Por el comienzo de un año maravilloso. Antes de darme cuenta, ella llamó por teléfono. Atractivo Al momento siguiente ya no estaba solo Pero se sentó a recitar Algunos versos perfectamente hermosos En mi encantador estilo americano. Cómo deslumbré sus sentidos Fue realmente nada menos que un crimen. Ahora tengo esta chica perfectamente maravillosa. En mi habitación perfectamente hermosa Y estamos viviendo juntos Y pasándola de maravilla Sally, me temo que esto no funcionaría. Eres demasiado distraído ¿Distraer? ¡No, inspirador! Ella me cuenta cuentos perfectamente maravillosos. De su vida trepidante y escandalosa Que probablemente usaré Como uno o dos capítulos de mi libro. Y como mi estancia en Berlín fue para obligarme Creación Que suerte caer en una fuente fabulosa de estimulación Y perfectamente maravilloso también ¿Es su acuerdo perfecto para ser Tan quieto como un ratón Mientras le doy un giro a mi novela Sí, tengo una vida muy agradable.

Oh, por favor, Cliff, ¿sólo por uno o dos días? ¡Por favor! conocí esto chica verdaderamente extraordinaria En esta ciudad realmente increíble Y ella logró hábilmente Para entrar a mi habitación ¡Ay, acantilado! Tengo un presentimiento terrible, lo he dicho. una cosa tonta Además solo tengo una cama estrecha. pensaremos en algo"
Sally Bowles is supposed to be over the top and in fact is supposed to be a second rate performer... Liza was so good... she kind of spoils the role for everyone else... I feel sorry for any actress trying to do it... saw a good woman do it in Dublin last night... agree that the normally great Jane Horrocks overdoes it and not in a good way...
Anyone watching this in Jan 2021? Jane Horrocks is unbelievably talented! I have spent all afternoon researching her work and interviews - and wasn't in the slightest wee bit, disappointed. Also, it took me an age to ascertain that Cliff is not Lee Evans lol :-)
I feel like Jane is the only Sally who can do this song justice.
Same, she's the best
Definitely!
Same
Hallelujah
She definitely shows the most emotional range in every song.

Srsly no one ever says anything about this cliff. He has a beautiful voice and his acting is on point
Lovely voice but sometimes loses his accent
@@deerheart87he's from America hes not meant to have one
i LOVE the entire casting in this version of Cabaret. ESPECIALLY cliff, sally, emcee, and fraulein schneider. they all play the roles in the exact way you'd want them to
The way Sally's face lights up when Cliff starts singing is so fucking adorable holy shit
i love them so much it makes me so mad they have to get ripped apart in the plot :(
This is the way Isherwood would have cast it. He thought Liza was too talented. Sally is supposed to have more guts than talent. Jane makes the story much more layered.
RIGHT! Isherwood was still around in 1972! I'll bet he thought that Brian in the film was closer to Isherwood himself than Cliff here!
My favorite version by far 😍
Jane is a perfectly marvelous SALLY! 💞👍💞
Has Jane Horrocks ever played Audrey in Little Shop? She's so good at these slightly damaged roles.
She would be perfect
Just say Adam Godley on the stage in London ... he's an amazing actor
I think people are people, I really do, Cliff. Don't you?
I don’t think people should have to explain anything
For example, if I should paint my fingernails green, and it just so happens I do paint them green, well, if anyone should ask me why, I say, "I think it's pretty."
"I think it's pretty," I reply
So if anyone should ask about you and me, you have two alternatives:
You can either say, " Oh yes, it’s true; we're living in delicious sin," or you can simply tell the truth and say:
[SALLY]
I met this perfectly marvelous girl
In this perfectly wonderful place
As I lifted a glass to the start of a marvelous year
Before I knew it, she called on the phone, inviting
Next moment I was no longer alone
But sat reciting
Some perfectly beautiful verse
In my charming American style
How I dazzled her senses
Was truly no less than a crime
Now I've this perfectly marvelous girl
In my perfectly beautiful room
And we're living together
And having a marvelous time
[CLIFF, spoken]
Ah Sally, I'm afraid it wouldn't work out
You're much too distracting
[SALLY, spoken]
Distracting? No, inspiring!
[SALLY]
She tells me perfectly marvelous tales
Of her thrillingly scandalous life
Which I'll probably use
As a chapter or two in my book
And since my stay in Berlin was to force creation
What luck to fall on a fabulous source of stimulation
And perfectly marvelous too
Is her perfect agreement to be
Just as still as a mouse
While I’m giving my novel a whirl
Yes, I’ve a highly agreeable life
In my perfectly beautiful room
With my nearly invisible
Perfectly marvelous girl
[CLIFF, spoken]
Sally, I can't afford... do you have any money?
[SALLY, spoken]
A few marks...uh... six?
[CLIFF, spoken]
Oh god
[SALLY, spoken]
Oh please Cliff, just for a day or two, please?
[CLIFF]
I... met... this
Truly remarkable girl
In this really incredible town
And she skillfully managed
To talk her way into my room
[SALLY]
Oh, Cliff!
[CLIFF]
I have a terrible feeling I’ve said
A dumb thing
Beside, I've only got one narrow bed
[SALLY]
We'll think of something
The BEST sally 😍
No one talking bout the best cliff?
Both of them where perfect in portraing people with no special talent. He was the incarnation of the common guy and she was the excentric chick that do drugs.
Did anyone else find this from the lego BatJokes video?
YES! YES! MEE! teeheeheh
Why watch someone else's rendition then!?
lyrics please ._.?

Aaaa!!!

This one is ok.........I think she's a little over dramatic for the part
That's her intention, and it was marvelous!
Anyone watching this in Jan 2021? Jane Horrocks is unbelievably talented! I have spent all afternoon researching her work and interviews - and wasn't in the slightest wee bit, disappointed. Also, it took me an age to ascertain that Cliff is not Lee Evans lol :-)
Adam Godley is really cute here!
YESSS and no one talks about it!!!
SEE EVERYONE IN BERLIN HAS A PERFECTLY MARVELLOUS ROOMMATE
SOME PEOPLE EVEN HAVE _TWO_ PEOPLE!
That’s Bubble from Absolutely Fabulous
La mejor interpretación! Me encanta Jane!!!
NO one can beat Natasha's performance. Everything about it was perfectly marvelous!
I liked her performance, but it's no mach for the over the top performance of Jane Horrocks, to me, she was a better Sally then Natasha.
Couldn't agree more. I much prefer natasha's performance to this above. Much more understated and better.
Natasha Richardson Is The ONLY! Woman Who Can Do This Song!
I liked her performance, but it's no mach for the over the top performance of Jane Horrocks, to me, she was a better Sally then Natasha.
Absolutely. I much prefer Natasha to Jane in this role!
