Murder, Greed, and All That Jazz: 20 Years of CHICAGO

Image for this story

Celebrate 20 years of CHICAGO—the dazzling Oscar winner for Best Picture cheered by audiences and critics alike.

At a time when crimes of passion result in celebrity headlines, nightclub sensation Velma Kelly (Zeta-Jones) and spotlight seeking Roxie Hart (Zellweger) both find themselves sharing space on Chicago's famed Murderess Row. They also share Billy Flynn (Gere), the town's slickest lawyer with a talent for turning notorious defendants into local legends. But in Chicago, there's only room for one legend.

As directed by Rob Marshall (who began his career as a Broadway dancer), the film’s artful blending of classic stagecraft and skillful film technique hits upon a rare alchemy: a musical movie that’s both theatrical and cinematic in equal measures.
