Liza Minnelli walked the red carpet in Los Angeles on Thursday (April 12) to celebrate the 40th Anniversary of "Cabaret" - the film that brought her an Oscar for best actress in 1972.<br/> <br />The film was being screened as the opening of the third annual TCM Classic Movie Festival - which honors films from Hollywood's historic past.<br/> <br />Minnelli said it did not seem like 40 years had passed since she went to Berlin to work on the movie.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: Liza Minnelli saying (English):<br/> <br />"No, not at all. It doesn't seem that at all. But then again, I don't live in the past. I'm always here or looking towards the future. What I do remember about the film is that a lot of people think it was, they hear, "Cabaret," and they think a frivolous musical. It's not. It's very interesting - about right when the Nazis were taking over and Berlin was so decadent. Divinely decadent. It's hot."<br/> <br />As for her future, she said she's not sure what the next 40 years have in store - but whatever it is, she's looking forward to it.<br/> <br />SOUNDBITE: Liza Minnelli saying (English):<br/> <br />"I don't know, but somebody will call me tomorrow. Maybe I'll record again with a rock and roll group, or do another film in Bolivia. Whatever. I just wait."<br/> <br />"Cabaret" has been fully restored for its anniversary and will be re-released on DVD.<br/> <br />Bob Mezan, Reuters.
