Hats off to Rob Marshall for taking a cast not necessarily obvious for this story and moulding them into an entertaining trio. The screenplay has been sanitised a bit, and proves really quite thin: “Roxie” (Renée Zellweger) and “Velma” (Catherine Zeta-Jones) are both convicted murderesses who will do just about anything to escape death row. Using their skills as dancers, and their gifts for attracting publicity they must try to engage dodgy lawyer “Billy Flynn” (Richard Gere) to help get them out of the clutches of prison warden “Mama Morton” (a superb Queen Latifah). That’s all pretty incidental to the stunning look of this film. At times a little confusing as the costumes seems to straddle timelines from the 1920s to things one might see in “Saturday Night Fever”, but it is all about the style; and both principals have it in spades. Zeta-Jones, especially, has a classy sexiness about her performance; Zellweger more of an innocence, and Gere is the perfect man for the job proving he, too, can get his (and our) toes tapping. The original Fosse play remains the bedrock for this and the Kander and Ebb songs performed strongly with “All That Jazz”; “Funny Honey” and “Razzle Dazzle” all delightfully choreographed and delivered. I still prefer the intimacy (and grittiness) of the stage production, but as cinematic adaptations go – this is highly entertaining and well worth a watch.

Well worth seeing.
In 1924, Cook County (Chicago) had two trials of women who killed their lovers. Both Beaulah Annan and Belva Gaertner inexplicably were found innocent–and the media loved it. As a result, in 1927, a silent fictionalized movie called “Chicago” debuted. Then, in 1942, Ginger Rogers starred in a remake called “Roxie Hart”. In the mid-1970s, a musical version of “Roxie Hart” debuted on Broadway. And, in 2002, the filmed version of the 70s musical was released. Now that is a long and interesting pedigree! As for the film, it’s an interesting melange. The songs are great and the film is very impressive…yet it’s so incredibly anachronistic that it made my brain hurt. Now some of this I could understand–it was more like a filmed version of the play than most musicals. But why they chose to have ridiculously modern outfits and backup dancers confused me. Why did Catherine Zeta-Jones, Renée Zellweger and Richard Gere dress and look like they were from the 1920s–yet the rest of the dancers look right off the stage of Broadway circa 2002?! The fishnet stockings, 2002 hairstyles and the like really confused the crap out of me–especially since I am a history teacher.

Still, I must point out the singing and songs were great and the story was a huge improvement over the Ginger Rogers film (which was wretched). It was well made and I was particularly impressed by Zeta-Jones (who won the Best Supporting Actress Oscar for it), Gere and John C. Reilly. They really worked their butts off and impressed me. So, because so much was right about this film I certainly recommend it. It’s just too bad they didn’t get the details right or even try when it came to all the minor characters and costumes. Oh well, you can’t win ’em all.

A Smash Musical
Totally deserving its best picture Oscar, Chicago demonstrates that the musical is not dead. Not by a long shot. You could argue the Moulin Rouge proved that point just last year, but I consider that one a near miss; the editing gave me a headache. Chicago is spot on; the acting, singing, dancing, direction, timing, lighting; you name it, it couldn’t be improved upon. This is what a musical film should aspire to.

I guess most do, but few hit the mark as squarely as Chicago.
