Continuity mistake: In the final scene when Velma and Roxie are performing, there is lipstick on Roxie's teeth. In the next shot it has disappeared. (01:41:35)
Chicago (2002)
Plot summary
Directed by: Rob Marshall
Starring: Richard Gere, John C. Reilly, Queen Latifah, Renée Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Lucy Liu, Taye Diggs
Roxie Hart shoots her boyfriend dead and after her husband refuses to help her cover it up, she is arrested and sent to murderess row along with the famous jazz singer, Velma Kelly. The two girls are desperate for fame, fortune and freedom. Their only hope is Billy Flyn, he has never lost a case and without him they'll be hung. Both girls will stop at nothing to out do each other and get out of jail.

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: Renée Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, and Richard Gere all did their own dancing and singing.
Question: Does Roxie get back together with her husband at the end? We see him leave, but they don't explain it. Perhaps the stage play explains this.
Answer: Amos wants to reconcile when the trial ends but Roxie walks away. (The end of their marriage is not explained in the stage play, either.) One is led to believe Roxie leaves Amos and goes on to stardom.
