Quotes

Billy Flynn: Now look, I don't like to blow my own horn. But believe me. If Jesus Christ lived in Chicago today and if he had $5,000 and he'd come to me, things would have turned out differently.

Trivia

Continuity: In the scene in which Roxie shoots her lover, he looks into her mirror whilst putting on his tie. He ties it, then puts down his collar. He turns away from the mirror and there's a shot of his back. His collar is up again.

Continuity: In Roxie's first press conference, in certain shots you can see a bit of misting. In others you don't. This suggests that the scene was shot over several days or at different times of the day.

Revealing: If you look closely at Billy Flynn in the musical number "All I Care About is Love", right at the end when he takes off the boxers, you can see that he is wearing underwear underneath them.

Continuity: In the final dance scene with Velma at the Chicago Theater, Roxie's shoes change between the early shots and later ones.

Revealing: In the final dance sequence of The Cell Block Tango, watch Liz (Pop). When everyone else high-kicks, she only kicks out.

Continuity: In the final dance scene, there are supports on the ground for the machine guns when Roxie and Velma are not holding the guns. These supports disappear when Roxie and Velma are holding the guns.

Continuity: When posing for the photographers at Roxie's trial, whenever we see Billy and Roxie from the front, Billy has his arm all the way around Roxie with his hand resting on her stomach. Yet whenever we see them from behind, his hand is resting in the middle of her back.

Continuity: In the scene where Roxie gives Velma her laundry the money in Velma's top moves from hardly seen to almost all the way out.

Continuity: At Roxie's trial when Billy is examining Amos and talking about Roxie's baby, during the close-ups of Amos, the camera goes to Billy when he's asking a question and Amos when he's answering a question. When Billy is ranting about Amos not even asking Roxie if he was the father, during the shots of Amos, Billy is MUCH closer to the witness stand than when the camera goes to his shots.

Continuity: In the scene where Velma offers Roxy some chocolates, Velma puts the box down on her left. In the next shot, it is at the corner of the table, on Velma's right, with the long side facing Roxy. In the next shot the short side is facing Roxy, then the long side again.

Visible crew/equipment: In the "Roxie" number, just after Roxie sings "that means somebody everyone knows" she goes down a line of mirrors and as she does you can see three crew members with what looks to be a camera in front of the middle one. Their figures are somewhat dark, so it's a bit hard to see, but it's there.

Continuity: When Velma approaches Roxie with some chocolates, she offers her one. Her fingers are under the box, and her thumb on the top, but when the camera changes angle to face Roxie, Velma's thumb is on the side of the box. When the camera goes back to focus on Velma, her thumb is back on the top.
