Buy This Item Chicago (Full Screen Edition) by Miramax  Available from Amazon  $10.99  on 11-15-2008     Winner of six Academy Awards(R) (2003) including Best Picture, and starring Academy Award nominee (Best Actress, CHICAGO) and Golden Globe winner (Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, CHICAGO) Renée Zellweger (BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY), Academy Award winner (Best Supporting Actress, CHICAGO) Catherine Zeta-Jones (TRAFFIC), Academy Award nominee (Best Supporting Actress, CHICAGO) Queen Latifah (BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE), Golden Globe winner (Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, CHICAGO) Richard Gere (UNFAITHFUL), and Academy Award nominee (Best Supporting Actor, CHICAGO) John C. Reilly (GANGS OF NEW YORK) -- CHICAGO is a dazzling spectacle 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! Also starring Lucy Liu (CHARLIE'S ANGELS). Reader Reviews Ok I am a huge fan of musicals but there have been some dreadful cinematic treatments of many musicals. Rob Marshall's brilliant vision in adapting the phenomenal Broadway revival (still running on B'way as of Mar/08) to screen is a pleasure and a guilty one at that! Superb performances all around and of course Zeta-Jones deserves her Oscar although Queen Latifah gave as good as it gets. Richard Gere is a delight as the smarmy lawyer and sings with an appropriate 1920's nasal tenor! Obviously I give this film a high recommendation and looking forward to watching it over and over.
