The stage is dimly lit and the band begins to play, a figure appears and the spotlight falls on her, her cue begins and she starts to sing.
Yes you've guessed right, this is a musical. A jazz musical.
In Chicago two women, Velma Kelly (Catherine Zeta-Jones) and Roxie Hart (Renee Zellweger) are arrested for murder, Roxie for the man she's been having a fling with, desperately trying to get into stardom and stage sensation Velma for her husband and sister double murder.
Now in prison the two try to gain Billy Flynn's (Richard Gere) attention so he will try and get them out of jail. While Roxie spends time in jail, she starts to see everything like a musical....

Bonus features: Disk 1:
A delightfull movie commentary with a deleted song 'The class' A duet featuring Velma and the warden - Mama Morten.
Disk 2:
The history of Chicago, extended performances and much much more about the show, director and crew.

Every song in this movie is excellent and this feature packed DVD brings one of broadway's finest to your living room.
