[edit] Books that inspired the film

How could "The Berlin of Sally Bowles" have inspired the film if it was written after the film was made? Eyal Bairey 19:09, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

According to the Christopher Isherwood page, the three books listed are different editions of the same work, with different titles. That is, Sally Bowles (1937) was included in the later novel Goodbye to Berlin (1939), which was included in The Berlin Stories (1945), which was later re-issued as The Berlin of Sally Bowles (1975). It would probably be sufficient to list Goodbye to Berlin as the inspiration for the play and the film, since it's the only one that has a wikipedia page.

[edit] quality

It does not fit wikipedia standards to call this film superior to the original broadway production. A film and a broadway show can NEVER be compared that way.--Kiwiboy1221 04:01, 8 March 2007 (UTC)

And most of us who saw both the original Broadway production and the movie found the Broadway production far superior. GCW50 20:08, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
