Synopsis:
It's
the
long-awaited
film
version
of
the
Broadway
hit.
Set
in
the
roaring
20's,
this
is
the
story
of
Chicago
chorus
girl
Roxie
Hart
(Zellweger),
who
shoots
her
unfaithful
lover
(West).
Landing
in
jail,
she
meets
Velma
Kelly
(Zeta-Jones),
another
chorus
girl
and
murderess,
currently
enjoying
media
attention
and
legal
manipulation,
care
of
her
attorney,
Billy
Flynn
(Gere),
king
of
the
old
"Razzle
Dazzle."
Soon
enough,
however,
Flynn
takes
Roxie's
case
as
well,
and
Velma
finds
herself
old
news
as
Roxie
is
now
the
most
famous
murderess
in
town,
on
her
way
to
getting
out
of
jail
and
becoming
a
star.
The
two
go
through
a
series
of
attempts
at
getting
what
they
both
want
(often
conflicting):
freedom
and
fame.
