If I had known that Sweet Charity was a remake of Nights of Cabiria, I would never have watched it. But I didn't know, so I watched it, ignored the plot, and thoroughly enjoyed the crazy Bob Fosse dance scenes. BTW: Scum is very good, but my favorite film of that genre is Bambule. http://ubu.com/film/meinhof_bambule.html
