Beneath the innocent exterior, the stench of the heart

Renee Zellweger is really a very talented actress. In my original impression, she was a pure acting school who was not very good-looking, but I didn't expect that Renee, who lost weight, looked innocent and cute, especially The innocence and ignorance on that face is really lovable, even if I am a girl. Although she is vain and ignorant in her heart, she is really an excellent object of ugliness when all paired with her innocent and charming appearance. I think Catherine Zeta-Jones is inferior to her, and throughout the movie, I was only attracted to Roxy, and hardly watched Velma. In the whole movie, I can't see the society's respect for women. Women are just playthings who sell their flesh and sexual fantasies, and let those men fiddle with them. Even if the two female protagonists finally kill the man and get rid of the crime, I don't see it either. This is a resistance to male power. What I see is only the opposition, use and hatred between the sexes. The tongue-in-cheek lawyers and the nonsense reporters inside, are there any differences between the packaging of criminals and today's entertainment industry? As long as there is packaging, anything can become a big star, what! Even the poor innocent Eastern European woman who was hanged, everyone was just eating human blood buns, and watching the frenzied expressions of the audience watching her after her death made people shudder. Returning to the genre itself, I always feel that Chinese audiences may not be as enthusiastic about musicals as Americans. I always think that there are a few musical performances in it that are very exciting, but they are all shown in the form of movies, and I always feel that there is some confusion. And the lens change is really dizzying, maybe the director also used this to show the broken, chaotic, bizarre Chicago and that era!

    @Film Archive with Jiang Yu five stars no problem. First of all, this is a good song. Adapted from a musical. The clips are excellent. Renee and Zeta are not of the same order at all. Renee's performance was better than Zeta's. Zeta is closer to the vase. But Zeta completely overwhelmed Renee with the overwhelming advantage of her outstanding appearance. Richard Gere is so gay. I always thought that this role might be a lot better. like Jack Nicholson

    Now I like this alternative noir film more and more, as if this is the reality of life, I really like the montage and fast editing used in it.

Chicago quotes

  • Matron Mama Morton: As you know I'm here to take care of you. Now if anything hurts you, or upsets you in any way... don't run your fat ass mouth off to me cause I don't give a shit. Now move out.

  • Velma Kelly: You wanted my advice, right? Well here it is. Don't forget Billy Flynn's number one client is... Billy Flynn.

    Roxie: What's that supposed to mean?

    Velma Kelly: It means, don't let him hog the spot-light when you're the one they paid to see.
