Liza Minnelli's career can be analyzed through her talents as a singer, dancer, actress, and beloved public figure. While her vocal skills are commendable and her film career had its highlights, notably 'Cabaret', she truly shines as a personality. For sixty years, she has embodied honesty and charm, navigating the public eye with both self-effacing humor and openness. The new documentary, 'Liza: A Truly Terrific, Absolutely True Story', attempts to celebrate her legacy, though it sometimes presents her significance in an exaggerated light.
Liza Minnelli has been Liza Minnelli, the celebrity - plucky, good-humored, and yet jaw-droppingly naïve, showing up as required and oversharing.
Her public persona excels as she operated from an assumption that a famous person can just be herself and it will work out fine.
Though the documentary aims to portray her as the greatest entertainer, it becomes a celebration of her identity rather than her unparalleled achievements.
If you dislike Liza, you might want to take a look at yourself, or just go see the documentary and become a convert.
