Chicago (2003)

Renee Zellweger is Roxie Hart, a murderess who becomes front page news in 1920s Jazz Age
Chicago. After shooting her no good lover full of lead, it's off to death row with her, where she
encounters the queen bee warden (Queen Latifah) and star in-mate Velma Kelly
(Catherine Zeta-Jones). Managing to secure the services of suave lawyer Billy Flynnn
(Richard Gere) and with the help of some media manipulation, Roxie hopes to escape her murder
rap and kick start a career on the stage. But what happens after her fifteen minutes of infamy have
passed her by? Chicago is an honourable, wholly enjoyable attempt at an old-style
Hollywood musical.
