    Best Picture Oscar in 2003 (but nowhere near as good as [The Pianist]). Based on the Broadway musical of the same name, the film is a well-made musical, entertaining and socially ironic. The editing is exquisite, and the singing and dancing intersect with the conventional plot, which not only externalizes the psychological activities of the characters, but also serves as a symbol and supplementary interpretation. It is not easy for the three protagonists to complete all the singing and dancing...

    OMG! The heroine is actually the big fat girl in BJ's single diary! The style of the film is very unique. The two lines of singing and dancing are performed while telling the story. The black uncle who plays the piano also serves as the announcer~ I especially like the part of "Prison Tango", from the music to the choreography. Later, I found out that there was an episode in the third season of Glee, and the song was re-arranged, but it was really weak compared to the original film...

    My two favorite musicals, due to the direct disregard of "Moulin Rouge" at the last Oscars, led to this film, which won a big win at the Oscars. The opening parallel montage is amazing, and it is very American and ironic. . . In addition, the last dance in the film, I am sorry to say, I really can dance....

    Excessive exaggeration is easy to produce unrealistic feelings, which in turn greatly reduces the ironic effect of painstaking efforts. Fortunately, a large number of parallel cross montages have saved the film, which can be described as a major breakthrough in the performance of musical films. Personally, I think the reason why this film was infinite in those days was largely due to the college's alternative compensation for ignoring "Moulin Rouge" in the previous session. The result of...

    2013-07-20 The second time I watched it, I felt completely different. From 2002 to 2013, the acceptance of different cultural forms was much higher, and the experience also made the angle different. Broadway musicals have clear story lines, bright themes, gorgeous scenes, and more details due to the film's narrative ability. The song and dance design of the movie is wonderful, considering acting and box office and using movie stars, otherwise the song and dance will be more perfect. Movies are t

    The plot is indeed a bit unstoppable, and some scenes are exaggerated too much, but with excellent editing, wonderful singing and dancing performances, and the director's amazing control, the film has been promoted to a classic. Although it won the Oscars as one of the biggest failures in the history of the Oscars, the film is well-deserved as the revival of the new...

    I don't like musicals that sing to the end, but I really like this musical adapted from a classic stage play. The song and dance are perfectly combined with the plot. Not only is it not obtrusive but also adds luster. The melody and choreography of the songs are gorgeous and dazzling. The plot also satirizes the reality of corruption. Catherine Zeta-Jones is amazing! The dancing and acting skills stole the show! The lawyer male protagonist looks familiar, but he is actually the young man in...

Chicago quotes

  • Mona: I loved Al Lipshitz more than I could possibly say. He was a real artistic guy, sensitive, a painter. But he was always trying to find himself. He'd go out every night looking for himself. And on the way, he found Ruth. Gladys. Rosemary. And Irving. I guess you could say we broke up because of artistic differences. He saw himself as alive. And I saw him dead.

  • Roxie: It'll never work.

    Velma Kelly: Why not?

    Roxie: Because I hate you.

    Velma Kelly: There's only one business where that's no problem at all.
