first song and dance movie, I used to think that India Asan added song and dance to the movie as a national characteristic, but now I think song and dance are also a means of narrative, and it is more gorgeous Wonderful.
I want to watch every song and dance in the play, especially the part of mama, bunker.
Every sarcasm in the play will be associated with the current society, and people can't help feeling that the reason why the classics become classics really has eternal and universal meaning.
The most impressive is a word play recurring "kid, this is Chicago"
Perhaps it can be understood as "this is the world, this is the truth."
Good guys do not last long, the bad guys more than survive, media Bo eye, people How ignorant, moral kidnapping, crowd indifference, etc., these things are repeatedly satirized in the play.
Whether the truth is the truth or not, as sung at the end of the play, "you can like your life you living, you can live the life you like , but nothing stays."

  • Velma Kelly: Oh, you're gonna see your sheba do the shimmy-shake... And all that jazz. Oh, she's gonna shimmy till her garters break... And all that jazz. Show her where to park her girdle. Oh, her mother's blood'll curdle if she'd hear her baby's queer for All that jazz...

  • Roxie Hart: [singing] Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes we both, oh yes we both, oh yes we both reached for the gun, the gun, the gun, the gun. Oh, yes, we both reached for the gun, for the gun.
