Chicago (2002)
Directed by Rob Marshall, and starring Renée Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Richard Gere and Dominic West.
Based on the original stage musical, Chicago explores the scandal and corruption of the 1920s Jazz Age, and centres on Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart, two murderesses who find themselves in jail together awaiting trial. Velma, a vaudevillian, and Roxie, a housewife, fight for the fame that will keep them from the gallows.
Chicago won six Academy Awards in 2003, including Best Picture.
