When vaudeville star Velma (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and ambitious chorus girl Roxie Hart (Renee Zellweger) meet in jail, they both want slick attorney Billy Flynn (Richard Gere) to get them on the front page.

Packed with razzle-dazzle, satire, and show-stopping numbers, Chicago is a sharp, stylish musical about ambition, media spin, and the cult of celebrity. Nominated for 12 Academy Awards, the film won six, including Best Picture.

‘Freshly transplanted from the stage, is a thrilling ode to the intertwined glories of sex, showmanship, and lying: what the film calls ”the old razzle-dazzle.”’ – Entertainment Weekly
