What Sweet Charity Is About
Charity earns her living dancing with customers in a dance hall and, however often she is let down, will not stop believing in people. Oscar, a shy accountant, might be the one she has been waiting for. What neither summary says is where it comes from: the musical is adapted from Fellini's Nights of Cabiria, with the prostitute of that film turned into a dance hall girl here. This was Bob Fosse's first film as director, and he choreographed it too. It failed at the box office and nearly ended his career; Cabaret came three years later.
