Anybody seen the Kelly Sisters?

You, you're up in five

- Keep the change, Charlie
- Thanks

Where the hell have you been?

- And where is Veronica?
- She's onto herself tonight.

But they paid to see your sister act

Don't sweat it, I can do it alone

Shit!

Come on, move it, move it
Hurry up

Tell them you're here

Ladies and gentlemen

The Onyx Club is proud to present
Chicago's hottest dancing duo

Two jazz babes moving as one

The Kelly Sisters

Come on babe
Why don't we paint the town

In all that Jazz
I'm gonna rouge my knees

and roll my stockings down

And all that jazz
Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

where the gin is cold

but the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall
where there's a nightly brawl

And all...

...that...

Jazz

Skidoo

And all that Jazz

Hotcha!

Whoopee!

And all that Jazz

Slick you hair
Wear your buckle shoes

And all that Jazz

I hear the father dip

Is gonna blow the blues

And all that Jazz

Hold on, hon
We're gonna bunny hug

I bought some aspirin

Down at United Drug

In case you shake apart

And wanna a brand new start

to do

that

Jazz

Let's go baby

But I didn't even meet your friend

That, that manager guy

Don't worry, Roxy

It's all taken care of

You told him about me

Yeah, kid
It's all arranged

Find a flask
We're playing fast and loose

And all that Jazz

Right up here is where I store the juice

And all that Jazz

Come on babe
We're gonna brush the sky

I bet you lucky Lindy

Never flew so high

'Cause in the stratosphere

How could he lend an ear

To all...

...that...

Jazz

Oh, you're gonna see her sheba 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 is curdle

If she'd hear

Her baby's queer

For All That Jazz!

Oh, Mrs. Brucewits
Mrs. Hart

This is Fred

He's my brother

All that Jazz

Come on babe,
why don't we paint the town?

And all that Jazz

I'm gonna rouge my knees

and roll my stockings down

And all that Jazz

Start the car

I know a whoopee spot

Where martini is cold

But the piano's hot

It's just a noisy hall

Where there's a nightly brawl

And all that Jazz

Say it again, Fred

Ah, you're the star, kid

My little shooting star

No, I'm no one's wife

But, oh, I love my life

And All That Jazz!

That Jazz

Oh, say it again, Fred

Jesus

Where is the fire?

Amos ain't home till midnight

Freddie

Fred

Hey, ...you know

I don't want you to feel
I'm nagging at you or anything

But don't think it's about time
that I met your friend out of the Onyx

I mean it's been a month since you told him about me

I know

Cause that was a night Velma Kelly
plugged her husband and her sister

You really say that she found when they kissed together

Gosh if I found Amos soping it into somebody else

Bing bing gone with the wind, right

It's getting late

I have been thinking a lot about mattress

I never get a really good idea
I write it down in my diary before it goes out of my head

And it occured to me the other day

That all the really, really knocked out acts

Have, you know, something little different
going on you know

Like eh...our signature bed

And I thought, I thought that nothing

Could be a loof

You know

Give them just enough to get them good in hungry
you know

Always leave them one more

Hey, once I get a name for myself

Maybe, maybe we could
open up a club in Varum, you know

You could run it

and I could be the headliner

What's the idea?

Wake up, kid, you're never gonna have an act

Says who?

Face it, Roxie

You're too bit talent with skinny legs

but I'm just a furniture salesman

Dear but you got connections, you know

The guy down the club

There is no guy

Yet, that night

It was the first night I set foot in that joint

I was collecting out a bed for the trumbone player

So you never told anyone about me?

Sugar, you are hot stuff

I would say anything to get a piece of that

And now, now?

We've had some laughs
Let's just leave it with that

Fred

You can't do this to me

You get off!

You touch me again,
I'll put your lights out

Wait

Your husband will be home,
so why don't you watch yourself

We ain't gonna hit no sheets again

You're a liar, Fred

Oh yes, so what?

You lied to me

- You lied to me
- That's right, sweetheart, that's right

Son of bitch

You're son of a bitch

You're son of a bitch

Hotcha

Whoopee

Why you're bothering, Sal

This one's all wrapped up

I hear it's a new city record

from killing to confession in an hour for that

Where did you get the murder weapon?

I keep a gun in the underwear drawer

Just in case of trouble, you know

That's just fine, sign right there, Mr. Hart

Freely and gladly

Freely and gladly

And mind that you don't say we beat you up
when you get upon the witness stand

No I gave myself up,
surrendered at my own freewill

Isn't he the cheerful murderer?

Shooting a burgalar ain't murder

Just last week the jury sancted a man

I'm always greatful for citizens the law

Get in there

You too

Sit down

OK, from the top

A man's got a right to protect his home
and his loved ones, right?

Of course he has

Well I come home from the garage,
I see him climbing through the window

Aha?

With my wife Roxie in there
sleeping like an angel

Is that true, Mrs. Hart?

I'm telling you
My wife has nothing to do with it

She wouldn't hurt a worm
Not even a worm

Was until I fire the first shot
She won't even open her eyes

She sleeping

I would say she could sleep to the saint patty's day parade

When I think what would happen
if I went out for a beer with the guys

instead of coming straight home

It makes you sick when you think about it

For her first number, Ms. Roxie Hart
would like to sing a song of love and devotion

Dedicated to her dear husband Amos

Sometimes I'm right

Sometimes I'm wrong

But he doesn't care

He'll string along

He loves me so

That funny honey of mine!

Sometimes I'm down

Sometimes I'm up

But he follows 'round

Like some droopy-eyed pup

He loves me so

That funny honey of mine!

Like I said

Even after I shot him, he kept coming at me

So I had to pull the trigger again

He ain't no sheik

That's no great physique

And Lord knows he ain't got the smarts

But look at that soul

I tell you, that whole

Is a whole lot greater

Than the sum of his parts

And if you knew him like me

I know you'd agree

What if the world

Slander my name?

Why, he'd be right there

Taking the blame

He loves me so

And it all suits me fine

That funny, sunny, honey

Hubby of mine!

I mean supposin', just supposin'

He'd violated her or something

- You know what I mean? Violated
- I know what you mean

Or something, think how terrible that would've been

It's a good thing I got home from work on time

I'm tellin' you that

I say I' m telling you that

Name of deceased...Fred Casely

Fred Casely?

How could he be a burglar?
My wife knows him!

He sold us our furniture!

He gave us ten percent off

Lord knows he ain't got the smarts

She told me he was a burglar.

You mean he was dead when you got home?

She had him covered with a sheet

and she's tellin' me some cock
and bull story about this burglar

and I ought to say I did
it 'cause I was sure to get off

"Help me, Amos" she says
it's my god damn hour of needs

Now, he shot off his trap

I can't stand that sap

(Amos) And I believed her!
(Roxie) Look at him go

(Amos) That cheap little tramp.
(Roxie) Rattin' on me

(Amos) So she was two-timing me, huh?
(Roxie) With just one more brain

(Amos) Boy, I'm down at the garage, working my butt off fourteen hours a day
(Roxie) If they string me up

And she's up there munchin' on bon-bons

And trampling around like a goddamn fruisy

She thought she could

I wasn't born yet

I tell you there's something a man just can't take

And this time she pushed me too far

That little chiseler

Boy, what a sap I was

You double-crosser, you big blover mouth!
You promised you'd say...

What're you talking about,
you've been tricking me, Roxanne

You told me he was a burglar

The whole time you're been jazzling

You are a disloyal husband

Look, it's true
I shot him. But...

It was out of defense
He was trying to burgle me

And what I hear is he's been
burgling you three times a week for the last month

So what do you say, Mrs?

- That's him alright
- Thank you

Your story doesn' wash, Mrs Hart

So try this emphasize

Fred Caseley was a good time on the side
with goofy here's a milk ticket

Milk ticket? He could buy my liquor

And Fred Casely could

With a wife and 5 little Caseleys
Or did he forget to mention them?

What?

All his

That bastard

Yeah, I killed him, I will kill him again

Once was enough, dear,take her to downtown
Come on

This way, honey

Oh, come on, it's a shame
to hide such a beautiful face

Why did you shoot him?

Why don't you give a profile,
a little smile like the girl in the toothpaste ad?

That one you can't, take this down

District attorney Harrison says this is a hanging case

- I'm ready to go to the Jury tomorrow
- What do you mean hanging?

Take her down to the Cook County Jail

Come on ,sweetie headliner. Why did you shoot him?
Was he crude, did he beat you, did he fool around..

What do you mean hanging?

Morphine, opium, cocaine?

Arm length: 31 inches

Arm length: 31 inches

The matron's on the way,
so don't ge too cozy

Put off that cigarette

Ever had morphine before?

She's fine

As long as you keep her happy

And now, ladies and gentlemen

The keeper of the keys,
the countess of the clink

The mistress of Murderer's row
Matron "Mama" Morton

Ask any of the chickies in my pen

They'll tell I'm the biggest mother hen

I love 'em all and all of them love me

Because the system works

The system called reciprocity

On your feet

Welcome, ladies

Got a little motto

Always sees me through

When you're good to Mama

Mama's good to you!

Might think it'll make your life a living hell

Which is just not true

There's a lot of favors

I'm prepared to do

You do one for Mama

She'll do one for you

Like to be your friend if you let me

So if something upsets you or makes you unhappy
in any way

Don't shoot your fat-ass mouth on me

Cause I don't give a shit, now move it out

They say that life is tit for tat

And that's the way I live

So, I deserve a lot of tat

For what I've got to give

Don't you know that this hand

Washes that one too

When you're good to Mama

Mama's good to you!

Let's go

You must be Hart

Ain't you a pretty one?

Thank you, madam

Oh no, call me Mama

I'm gonna take care of you

Now you'll be happy taken down in this block

Murderer's Row we call

Is that nicer?

No, I don't think I really belong in here

I didn't actually do anything wrong

I need to tell you, honey

I never heard of a man getting killed
when he didn't get just what would come at all

Hey, Mama

Come here, come here

Velma Kelly?

You're the Velma Kelly

You know I was there that night
I was there that night

That you got arrested

Yeah, you and half of Chicago

Look at this, Mama

An editorial denouce me in Red Book Magazine

Not a memory did we reall so fiendish horrible
a double homicide

Baby, you couldn't buy that kind of publicity

Couldn't buy it?

I guess I can keep this then

Let's try

If you want my gravy

Pepper my ragout

Spice it up for Mama

She'll get hot for you

When they pass that basket

Folks contribute to

You put in for Mama

She'll pull out for you

The folks atop the ladder

Are the ones the world adores

So boost me up my ladder, kid

And I'll boost you up yours

Let's all stroke together

Like the Princeton crew

When you're strokin' Mama

Mama's strokin' you

So what's the one conclusion

I can bring this number to?

When you're good to Mama

Mama's good to you

Mama

It's kind of freezing in here

You don't think maybe there's something wrong
with the heat

Not that I'm complaining, mind you,
but you know

If you got a couple of blankets to sleep with

Lights out, ladies

OK

Pop

Six

Squish

Uh-Uh

Cicero

Lipschitz!

And now the six merry murderesses
of the Cook County Jail

in their rendition of
the "Cell Block Tango."

Pop

Six

Squish

Uh-uh

Cicero

Lipschitz

Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, cicero

Lipschitz

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there

If you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same!

Pop, six, squish, uh-uh, cicero, lipschitz

You know how people
have these little habits that get you down

Like Bernie.
Bernie liked to chew gum.

No, not chew. Pop.

So I came home this one day and
I'm really irritated,

I'm looking for a little sympathy

and there's Bernie lyin' on the couch

drinkin' a beer and chewin' it

No, not chewin'. Poppin'

So, I said my six, you pop that gum one more time

And he did

So I took the shotgun off the wall

and I fired two warning shots

into his head

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there

If you'd have heard it

I betcha you would
have done the same!

I met Ezekiel Young from Salt Lake City
about two years ago

and he told me he was single

and we hit it off right away.

So, we started living together

He'd go to work, he'd come home,

I'd fix him a drink, and we'd have dinner

And then I found out

"Single" he told me?

Single, my ass

Not only was he married

oh no

He had six wives

One of those Mormons, you know

So that night when he came home from work

I fixed him his drink as usual

You know, some guys just can't hold their arsenic

He had it coming

He had it coming

He took a flower in its prime

And then he used it

And he abused it

It was a murder
But not a crime

Now, I'm standing in the kitchen

carvin' up the chicken for dinner

minding my own business

In storms my husband Wilbur in a jealous rage

"You been screwin' the milkman," he says

He was crazy

and he kept on screamin'
"You been screwin' the milkman,"

And then he ran into my knife!

He ran into my knife ten times

If you'd have been there

If you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

Mit keresek, enn itt? Azt mondjok, hogy lakem lefogta a ferjemet

en meg lecsaptam a fejet.

De nem igaz, en artatlan vagyok

Nem tudom mert mondja Uncle Sam hogy en tetten

Probaltam a rendorsegen
megmagyarazni de nem ertettek meg

Yeah, but did you do it

Ah ah, not guilty

He had it coming

My sister, Veronica, and I did this double act

and my husband, Charlie, traveled around with us

Now for the last number in our act

we did these 20 acrobatic tricks in a row

one, two, three, four, five

Splits, spread eagles, back flips, flip flops

One right after the other

So this one night before the show
we are down at the Hotel Cicero

the three of us boozin' , havin' a few laughs

and we run out of ice

so I go out to get some

I come back, open the door

And there's Veronica and Charlie
doing Number Seventeen

the spread eagle

Well, I was in such a state of shock

I completely blacked out

I can't remember a thing

It wasn't until later, when I was
washing the blood off my hands

I even knew they were dead

They had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming all along

I didn't do it

But if I'd done it

How could you tell me that I was wrong?

They had it coming

They had it coming

They had it coming all along

I didn't do it

But if I'd done it

How could you tell me that I was wrong?

I love Alvin Lipschitz
More than I can possibly say

He was a real artistic guy

Sensitive...a painter

But he was always trying to find himself

He'd go out every night
looking for himself and along the way

he found Ruth, Gladys, Rosemary and Irving

I guess you can say we broke up because of artistic differences

He saw himself as alive and I saw him dead

The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

The dirty bum, bum, bum, bum, bum

They had it comin'

They had it comin'

They had it comin' all along

'Cause if they used us

And they abused us

How could you tell us
That we were wrong?

He had it coming

He had it coming

He only had himself to blame

If you'd have been there

If you'd have seen it

I betcha you would have done the same

- You pop that gum one more time
- Single my ass
- Ten times

-Miert csukott Uncle Sam bortonbe.
- Number Seventeen - the spread eagle.
- Artistic differences

Pop

Six

Squish

Uh-uh

Cicero

Lipschitz

Who brought them?

What's up to you?

Nothing

Heard they're Velma's

Yeah, Hanja does all her laundry for a couple of weeks

- Fresh towels for change
- Make it quick

I can take good care of you

There're a couple of things
Let me analyze to you

Now, Billy Flynn set your trial date
on Mar 5th

Mar 7th you would be aquitted

On Mar 8th, you know what Mama's
gonna do for you?

Mama's gonna put you back
in Veaudeville Circus

So now you're an agent too?

Well them until Mabelle install a private line in your cell
All calls gotta go through me

What kind of dough we're talking about?

You know, this crazy world

I mean, Babe Ruth is wearing rules
and playing in palace for 5000 dollars for a week

Yeah, what about someone with real talent

Well, I can talk to the boys over Wienworks

With your recent sensation activities

They seem they can give you 2500

2500?

Geez, the most me and Veronica make was 350

Yeah, that was what happens
when you have that Redbook presentation

You know what, Mama?

I always wanted to play Big Jim

Do you think you can get me that?

Big Jim's?

I don't know

It's gonna take another phone call

How much is that gonna cost?

Come on Vel

I feel about you, you're like family of me
You're one of my own

- I'll do for fifty bucks
- Fifty bucks for a phone call?

You must get a lot of wrong numbers, Mama

Oh, Ms. Kelly, got your personals

Freshly pressed by yours truly

I know, it's my pleasure

Hey, listen

Can I ask you something?

You know that Harrison guy?

Well he said what I have done is a hanging case

And he's prepared to ask for the maximum penalty

Yeah, so?

So I'm scared

I surely would appreciate some advice

Especially from...

Someone I admire as much as you

Since I can remember, I have wanted to be on the stage

Really?

What's your talent, washing and drying?

No, no

I dance in the chorus

That was before I met my husband Amos

Look, you want some advice?

Here it is, direct from me to you

Keep your paws off my underwear. OK?

Yeah, OK

Thanks

For nothing

She's not that nice, ain't she?

I'll tell you no matter how big she gives,
she's still as common as ever

I'd like to help you, deary

We'll take a lotto

So what do you figure on useful ground?

Grounds?

What're you gonna tell the jury?

Who's figure, I'll tell them the truth

The truth?

That's one way ticket to the death house

Holy mother of God

Oh relax

I mean, in this town
Murders are for entertainment

Besides, in 47 years,
the Cook County never hung a woman yet

So that's 47 to 1

that they won't hang you

Jesus, Mary and Joseph

You're talking to the wrong people

What you need is Billy Flynn

Who?

Billy Flynn

He's only the best criminal lawyer in all over Illinois

Tell me what he don't know
about juries and women

How do you get this Billy Flynn?

Well, not by prayer, deary

First you give me a hundred dollars

Then I'll make a phone call

Hundred dollars? Well it just...

I mean

Seems pretty steep for a phone call

Oh but it worth every cent

I mean he never lost a case for female clients yet

Or a sweet puss like you as well

Let's just say it seems so blind in Chicago

He's never lost a case?

Never

Every girl in this place would kill
to have Billy Flynn represent her

We want Billy

B. I. Double L. Y.

We're all his

He's our kind of a guy

And ooh what luck

'Cause here he is

Ladies and Gentleman, presenting
the Silver-Tongued Prince of the Courtroom

the one, the only Billy Flynn

I don't care about expensive things

Cashmere coats, diamond rings

Don't mean a thing

All I care about is love

(Billy) That's what I'm here for
(Girls) That's what he's here for

I don't care for wearing silk cravats

Ruby studs, satin spats

Don't mean a thing

All I care about is love

All he cares about is love

Give me two eyes of blue

Softly saying, "I need you"

Let me see her standin' there

And honest, mister, I'm a millionaire

I don't care for any fine attire

Vanderbilt might admire

No, no, not me

All I care about is love

All he cares about is love

Good morning, ladies

That's what he's here for

Excuse me, gentlemen

Ms. Kelly, do you remember anything
at all about that night

I passed out completely, Ms. Sunshine
I can' t remember a thing

Only that I didn't do it

- Any idea who did it?
- No

No but my client is offering a substantial award
to anyone with information about this crime

How much is the reward, Ms. Kelly?

I don't know, how much?

I'll work it out after the trial

Now, if there's no more questions, Ms. Kelly and I
had a lot work to do

What's all this about the awards?

Often done before. If the reporters write it on
we deny the whole thing later on

Thank you

All he cares about is love

- Mr. Flynn, I'm Roxie...Hart
- Who?

- Mama tells you about me
- Oh, yeah right, right, the cute one

How would I hope that you might represent me

You have five thousand dollars?

That's a lot of money

Mama didn't say anything about five thousand dollars

Look it, eh, Mr. Flynn

I'm not good at this sort of thing

Maybe we could make
some sort of arrangements between us

I could be awfully a good sport

Good you got that idea of our system

Now listen

You mean just one thing to me

You call me when you got five thousand dollars

All he cares about is love

Show me long raven hair

Flowin' down, about to there

When I see her runnin' free

Keep your money, that's enough for me

I don't care for drivin' Packard cars

Or smoking long buck cigars

No, no, not me

All I care about is

Doin' the guy in

Who's pickin', on you

Twistin' the wrist

That's turnin' the screw

All I care about

Is love

Oh you'll see him now

- Well, hello, Andy
- Amos, my name is Amos

That's right, take a seat

You know, you're a remarkable man

Your wife two times you, plug the guy
and tries to pity on you

Most men are gonna dim with that swing,
but no

You're sticking by her

Actually hero in my eyes

That's right

I'm a hero

Did you bring the money?

I didn't do as well as I hoped, but

I will, Mr. Flynn, I will

Ah, this is only a thousand

Plus the three hundred I borrowed
from the guy down at the garage

and there are seven...

Seven hundred from the building of Loan Fund

Two thousand?

And that's all I got so far

But I'll give twenty dollars off my salary every week

I'll give you notes with interest,
double triple until every cent is paid, I promise

When you came to me yesterday

I didn't ask you if she was guilty

I didn't ask if she was innocent

I didn't ask if she was a drunk, or a dopefing, no

All I said was do you have five thousand dollars
You said yes

But you don't have five thousand dollars

So I figure you're a dirty liar
I don't waste time on dirty liars

Look

I'm really sorry, Mr. Flynn

On the other hand

Your devotion to your wife is really
very very touching

I'll take your wife's case
and I'll keep it

Because I play square

Now, look, Hart

I don't like to blow my own horn

But believe me, if Jesus Christ lived in Chicago today
if he had five thousand dollars

And he come to me, things would've turned out differently

All right, this is what we gonna do

By the end of the week, I wanna have Roxie's name
in the front page of every newspaper in town

Sweetest Little Jazz Killer
Ever Lived in Chicago

That's the angle I'm after

You make the announcement,
we're gonna have an auction

Tell them we gotta raise money for her defense

They'll buy everything she's ever touched, everything

Your shoes, your dresses,
your perfume, your underwear

Mm, the troller records
like the one I was playing when I shot the bastard

I didn't hear that

Not that I didn't have ground mind you
Hey what are they?

That's when we go to trial

Look, nobody, nobody's gonna care a lick

Watch your defenses unless they care about you

So the first thing we're gonna do
is to work out some sympathy from the press

I'm not pretty sure like Mary Sunshine

But there's one thing they can never resist

And that is, a reformed sinner

So tell me, what's your favorite subject in school

- Dalf, that was a real...
- There must be something that you're really good at

Oh I got high marks in the courtesy in hygiene

Perfect, you wanted to be a nun

Nun?

Where were you born?

On a chicken farm outside Lurburk

Beautiful and silent home for every luxury and refinement

Where are your parents now?

Probably on front porch in their rocking chairs

Parents are dead

Family fortune swept away
you're educated in the Sacred Heart

Then you fell into a run away
marriage, left you miserable alone

Unhappy, of course you got swept up
in the mad world of the city

Jazz, Cabaret, liquor, you're drawn like a moth to the flame
- A moth?

Now the mad world acceased,
and you are the butterfly

Crushed on the wheel

Which is it, is it the moth or the butterfly?

- You have sinned in your sorrow
- God that's beautiful

Cut off God, stay where you're acquitted

Kid, when I'm through with you
not only will you be acquitted

Every man in jury wanna take you home
to meet his mother

- I was born in a beautiful southern combat
- What?

Oh holy shit
Oh I'll never get this straight

Pipe down and swearing

Look, from now on
You say nothing about of damn

Now try again

I was born on a...

Come on, come on

So what's the most thing I'm gonna do in the witness stand

I thought I'd get all teary eyed

And ask for your handkerchief

Then I thought I'll take a peek at the Jury like this

Flashing a bit thigh, hah?

What do you think?

Sounds great

Hey, don't you wanna hear the rest?

Come on, I'll get up, you can talk from my lists

Well, well, well

Sorry to be late, Mr. Flynn

Hope you're not too bored

I like it

I like it

Hey, Pauliana, I heard
your press conference is tomorrow

Yeah, what's up to you?

Well you wanted my advice right?

Well here it is

Don't forget Bailiff's No. 1 client is Billy Flynn

Meaning what?

Meaning

Don't let him hug the spotlight

You're the one they paid to see

Now remember, we can only
sell them one idea a time

Yeah, I can still see him coming after me
with that awful look in his eyes

And?

And we both reach for the gun

That's right, you both reach for the gun

Ready?

Yeah

Gentlemen, gentlemen, Ms. Sunshine

My client's just entered a plead of not guilty

We look forward to the trial at the earliest possible date.
Now is there any questions?

Ms. Sunshine

As you know, my paper is dry

Do you any advice for young girls
seeking to avoid a life of Jazz and drink

Absolutely yes.

Mrs. Hart feels that it's the tragic combination
of liquor and Jazz

which led her to the downfall.
Next question

Ladies and gentlemen

I would just like to state how flattered
I am that you came to see you

Mrs. Hart is very...

You see I was a moth
crushed on the wheel

You know, a butterfly
drawn to the, to the...

I bet you wanna know why I shot the bastard

Shut up, dummy

Mr. Billy Flynn in the "Press Conference Rag"

notice how his mouth never moves - almost

Where'd you come from?

Mississippi

And your parents?

Very wealthy.

Where are they now?

Six feet under.
But she was granted one more start

The convent of the sacred heart!

When'd you get here?

1920

How old were you?

Don't remember

Then what happened?

I met Amos
And he stole my heart away

Convinced me to elope one day

Oh, poor dear, I can't believe
what you've been through

A convent girl! A run-away marriage!

Now tell us Roxie

Who's Fred Casely?

My ex-boyfriend

Why'd you shoot him

I was leavin'

Was he angry?

Like a madman!
Still I said, "Fred, move along."

She knew that she was doin' wrong

Then describe it

He came toward me.

With a pistol?

From my bureau

Did you fight him?

Like a tiger

He had strength and she had none

And yet we both reached for the gun

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.

Understandable, understandable

Yes, it's perfectly understandable

Comprehensible, comprehensible

Not a bit reprehensible

It's so defensible!

How you're feeling?

Very frightened

Are you sorry?

Are you kidding?

What's your statement?

All I'd say is

Though my choo-choo jumped the track

I'd give my life to bring him back

- And?
- Stay away from

- What?
- Jazz and liquor

- And?
- And the man who

-What?
- Play for fun

- And what?
- That's the thought that

- Yeah!
- Came upon me

- When?
- When we both reached for the gun!

Understandable, understandable

Yes, it's perfectly understandable

Comprehensible, comprehensible

Not a bit reprehensible

It's so defensible!

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes they both

Oh yes they both

Oh yes, they both

- Reach for the gun
- Let me hear it

Oh yes, they both reached
For the gun

For the gun.

A little louder!

Oh yes, oh yes, oh yes they both

Oh yes they both

Oh yes they both reach for the gun

Now you got it

Oh yes, oh yes oh yes they both

Oh yes they both

Oh yes they both reach for the gun

Both reach for the gun

Move all by a capone

The windy city has taken
a new criminal to a talk

The name on everybody's lips is Roxie Hart

The sweetest little lady ever
accused of murder in Chicago

Women wanna look like her

Fellows wanna go out with her

Some little girls even wanna take her home

Don't get any ideas, little lady

On the other side of town

The assistant DA promises the keen shant shootre
shall swing before the year is up

Who knows?

If he lives up to his word, assistant DA Harrison
might become Governor Harrison some day

Back at the scene of the crime

Everybody wants a little piece of Roxie Hart

This jar of colgraine sent her husband back 20 dollars

Maybe this pretty little lady
would get some of that famous Roxie style

It seems everybody these days is ruling for

Roxie Hart

Take off these flowers
and make sure they do send them

So, kiddo

You've any thought what you wann do
after Billy get you off

Yeah, I think I'd like to go on the stage

Yeah, figure it as much

I've already called the Morris office

Really? How much is that gonna cost me?

Very fair to do, ten percent of all your takings

Yeah, we'll see, Mama

Besides, I don't even have an act yet

Well, killing Fred Caseley was your act

May not ??? audience
???

It's a freak act

Besides

Hi

I'm better than that

Of course you are, cup cake

I mean you may be as big as Sophie Tago

You really think so?

Made Canton and Joseph can buy

You know I always wanted to have my name on those papers

You know before I met Amos

I used to date with this well to do ugly bootlegger

He used to like to take me out and show me off

Ugly guys like to do that

Once it's said in the paper

Gamelands Alcapella seen a shavito
with a cute blonde

That was me

I cliffed and I saved better

You know all my life

I wanna have my own act

But no, no no no no

It's always no, they always turn me down

One big world full of no

And then Amos came along

Safe, sweet Amos

He never says no

I've never done this before

But you know

It is such a special night

And you're such a great audience

And I just, I really feel I can
I can talk to you, you know

So forget what you've read in the papers

And forget what you've heard from the radios

Because, because

Because I'm gonna tell you the truth

Not that the truth really matters

But I'm gonna tell you anyway

On the bed of the apartment

Amos was

Zero

I mean when he made love to me

It was like

I think he was fixing a carburetor or something

I like you, honey, I love you

Anyway

I started fooling around

Then I started screwing around

Which is fooling around without dinner

Then I met Fred Caseley

Who said that he can get me into the Veaudebill

But that ain't quite work out like I've planned

I guess it didn't really work out to grateful Fred either

So I gave up on the whole idea

If you can't figure after all these use

Opportunities just pass you by

And now,

with this swing I get 'em all

with all these publicity,

l got me a world full of yes!

The name on everybody's lips

Is gonna be Roxie

The lady rakin' in the chips

Is gonna be Roxie

I'm gonna be a celebrity

That means somebody everyone knows

They're gonna recognize my eyes

My hair, my teeth, my boobs, my nose

From just some dumb mechanic's wife

I'm gonna be Roxie

Who says that murder's not an art?

And who in case she doesn't hang

Can say she started with a bang?

Roxie Hart!

Boys

They're gonna wait outside in line

To get to see Roxie

Think of those autographs I'll sign

"Good luck to you, Roxie"

And I'll appear in a lavaliere

That goes all the way down to my waist

Here a ring, there a ring
Everywhere a ring a ling

But always the best of taste

l'm a star.

And the audience loves me.
And l love them.

And they love me for loving them.
And l love them for loving me.

And we love each other.

And that's cause none of us got
enough love in our childhoods.

And that's showbiz.... kid.

She's giving up her humdrum life

I'm gonna be, sing it's Roxie

She made a scandal and a start

And Sophie Tucker will shit, I know

To see her name get billed below

Roxie Hart!

l just can't take it anymore.

I can't go anywhere without hearing
about that dumb tomato!

Oh, no Mama, not you too.

l've got some bad news, kid.
The tour has been cancelled.

What?

Your name is out of the paper too long.

All you read about today,
is the Hart kid. She's hot.

And what am l supposed to do?
Suck up to her like everybody else?

lt couldn't hurt.

Over my dead body.

Mind if l join you?

Lights out.

Smoke?

Look what some Johnny sent me.

Triple cream caramel,
all the way from San Francisco.

l'm watching my figure.
You know, the trial.

Hey, Great mentioned that
you're on a trip today, huh?

There have been so many,
l just can't keep track.

Hey did I ever tell you,
you're exactly the same size as my sister.

l mean, you fit into
her costume perfectly.

Really?

Yeah, l was just thinking, you know,

with all the publicity that's piled up
between us when Billy gets us off,

would we be a
natural to do an act together.

You think so huh?

Ladies and gentlemen,
Miss Velma Kelly in an act of desperation.

My sister and l
had an act that couldn't flop.

My sister and l
were headed straight for the top.

My sister and l
earned a thou a week at least.

Oh yeah

But my sister is
now unfortunately deceased.

l know it's sad of course,
but a fact is still a fact.

And now all that remains is the remains...

of a perfect...

double... act.

Watch this.

They have to imagine it with 2 people.
lt's swell with two people.

First, l'd...

Then, she'd...

Then, we'd...

But l can't do it alone.

Then, she'd...

Then, l'd...

Then, we'd...

But l can't do it alone.

She'd say, what's your sister like?

l'd say, man.

She'd say, you're the cat's meow
And we wow the crowd again.

When she'd go...

l'd go...

We'd go...

And then those ding-dong daddies started to roar
Whistled, stomped, and stamped on the floor

Yelling, screaming, begging for more

And we'd say, okay, fellows.
Keep your socks up.

Cause you ain't seen nothing yet.

But I simply cannot do it alone.

So what do you think?

Come on, you can say.

l know you're right.
The first part is shit.

But the second part...

Second part is really nifty.

Okay, she'd go...

l'd go...

We'd go...

And then those two-bit Johnnies did it up brow

To cheer the best attraction in town

They really tore the balcony down

We'd say, okay, boys,
we're going home.

But before we go,
here's a few more partin' shots!

And this...this we did
in perfect unison.

Now you've seen me going through it.

You may think there's nothing to it.

But l simply cannot do it...

Alone!

So where's the part
we blew the brains out?

Okay, Roxie. l'll...

No, don't bother.

You think you're fooling me?
You're all washed up.

And it's me they want now,
and l'm a big star.

Single.

Oh l almost forgot.
You're in the paper today too.

ln the back.

Velma Kelly's trial has been
postponed indefinitely.

Seven words.

And here's a little piece of advice.
Direct from me to you.

Lay off the caramels.

And now, for all you
Chicago's stay-up-laters.

Night hours would
only come alive at the dark.

We dedicate this tune
Chicago After Midnight.

This all took place in Lesurevelt?

lncredible.

All right. Thanks.

They just arrest this woman for
triple homicide.

Really?

Yeah, get this. She's an Aries!

Now her family is in the pineapple
or grapefruit, some kind of fruits.

The demon Kitty works in
something... She's playing house.

On the north side in an apartment,
she met Harry.

What Harry does for living,
no one's quite sure.

But it doesn't really matter
cause she's paying all the bills.

Anyhow, Kitty comes home tonight.
Harry was already in bed, which is a part of his course from Harry

She goes to change. When she returns,
she notices something rather odd.

Extremely odd

Kitty disappears for a second.

Cool as a cucumber

And she returns,
she gently wakes up Harry.

Harry says, ''What? l'm alone!''

She says, ''Alone? Yyou have
two other women in bed with you!''

And Harry says, ''Come on, darling,
you gonna believe what you see or what l tell you?''

Good night, folks.

Miss Baxter, Miss Baxter!

Mary Sunshine from The Evening Star.

Would you mind saying a word or two?

Sure l'll say three. Go to hell!

Please direct your
questions to the counsel.

You're not my counsel
l want my money back!

lt's not your money.
lt's your mother's money.

Are you sorry, dear?

Yeah, l'm sorry, sorry l got caught.

Oh hey, Miss Sunshine.
Not now, Roxie.

l got a letter from a guy.
He says he's gone on a hungry strike until l'm free.

That's nice.

Miss Baxter, did you know
these two ladies personally?

Did l know these two ladies
personally? Was that your question?

Yeah, that's my ques...

She's very hot spirit, isn't she?

Miss Baxter...

Oh hey, Mr. Flynn.

-Yeah, hi, Tracy.
-lt's Roxie.

Yeah, sure, l'm just kidding.

Did you get my trial date yet?

-Listen, kid.
-l'm on top of your list, right?

Go to hell!

What a helling, huh?
And social-like too.

Her mother owns all the pineapples in Hawaii.

What the hell do l care about pineapples?

All right...

And now, that's all, direct all your questions

And afterwards l'll be happy to get back to you myself.

Billy...

How does it feel, kid?

Pretty soon we couldn't find
your name in the papers.

Mr. Flynn?

Someone open this door immediately.

Oh, my God. Roxie!
What is it to you?

Oh, no. Don't worry about me.

l only hope the fall didn't hurt the baby.

Baby?

Shit!

Roxie, when did this happen darling?

Well, doctor, is she or isn't she?

She is.

Would you swear that statement in court?

-Yes.
-Good. Button your fly.

I would...

I would just like to say that
when my own life doesn't matter now.

just that of my unborn child.

Poor dear, to have your baby born in jail.

My readers won't stand for that.

l can assure you that won't happen.

The trial would come in
the least possible moment.

First time we're ever have
one more girl knocked up.

Hey, Roxie...

Roxie! l just have the good news!

l'm the father.

Hey, Roxie, who's the father?

The question is completely out of line.

How dare you insult this brave young woman?

That's enough

Roxie, honey! lt's me, it's daddy!

Roxie, l'd get to you as soon as l could.

If someone stood up in a crowd

And raised his voice up way out loud

And waved his arm and shook his leg

You'd notice him

If someone in the movie show
Yelled "Fire in the second row

This whole place is a powder keg!"

You'd notice him

And even without clucking like a hen

Everyone gets noticed, now and then

Unless, of course, that personage should be

Invisible, inconsequential me!

Cellophane
Mister Cellophane

Shoulda been my name

Mister Cellophane

'Cause you can look right through me

Walk right by me

And never know I'm there...

I tell ya Cellophane
Mister Cellophane

Shoulda been my name

Mister Cellophane

'Cause you can look right through me

Walk right by me

And never know I'm there

Oh, l didn't see you.
Sit down.

Look, Andy, l'm afraid l'm gotta hit you hard.

l can only hope you would think about it.

-Amos, my name is Amos.
-Who says it wasn't?

lt was the kid's name l was thinking about.

You know when she's due?
September.

You'd pass out those cigars anyway.

l don't want you to give a damn on the people.
-People what?

-Laugh.
-Laugh? Why would they laugh?

They can count. Can you count?

September.

lt's the copy of Roxie's
first statement from D.A. office.

Says she hasn't copulated with you
for four months prior to the incidents.

She would know. Yeah,
l guess we've done no copulating since...

Wait a minute.

That doesn't figure out right.
l couldn't be the father.

Well, forget about that now
My client needs your support.

You mean she needs a meal ticket?

That's all l've ever been.
But this time she's gone too far.

What're you gonna do?
Divorce her?

You're damn right!
l'll divorce her!

She probably won't even notice.

Yeah. l'm sorry.

A human being's made of more than air

With all that bulk, you're bound to see him there

Unless that human bein' next to you

Is unimpressive, undistinguished

You know who

-You're still here?
-Yeah, l'm still here.

I think

Shoulda been my name

Mister Cellophane

'Cause you can look right through me

Walk right by me

And never know I'm there

I tell ya Cellophane
Mister Cellophane

Shoulda been my name

Mister Cellophane

'Cause you can look right through me

Walk right by me

And never know I'm there

Never even know

I'm there

Hope l didn't take up too much of your time.

l've been waiting for you 10 minutes.
Don't do that again.

This dress makes me look like a
wulworth lampshade. l'm not wearing this.

You wear it because l tell you to wear it.

l'm not wearing this dress.

And when Andy's on the stand,
l want you be knitting.

Knitting? For Christ's sake.

-A baby garment.
-l don't know how to knit!

Then learn.
-That's no way to win the jury's sympathy.

-You don't need advice anymore?
-Look at here, Mr. Mouthpiece.

lt seems to me that l am the one
who's coming up with the good ideas.

l'm sick of everybody telling me what to do.
And you treat me like dirt.

You know that? You treat me like I'm some dumb,
common criminal.

But you're some dumb,
common criminal.

Well, it's better than being a
greasy mick lawyer.

-We're happy who's saving your ass.
-Who's out for all. He can steal!

Maybe you'd like
to appeal on court without me.

Maybe l could. Have you read
the morning papers? They love me.

There maybe a lot more when you're hanged.
You know why? 'Cause it's sold more papers.

-You're fired.
-l quit.

Any lawyer in this town
would die to have my case.

You're a phony celebrity.
You're a flash in the pan

ln a couple of weeks,
no one would give a shit about you.

That's Chicago.

No! Not guilty!

What happened?

lt's Hunyak. She lost the last appeal.

So what does that mean?

What that means?
Next week, she's gonna...

This is Mary Sunshine,
coming to you from the Cook County Jail,

where history will be made today.

Katelin Helinsky would become the first woman
in the state of lllinois to be executed.

And so ladies and gentlemen...

And now, ladies and gentlemen,
for your pleasure and your entertainment,

we proudly present Katelin Helinsky
and her famous Hungarian Disappearing Act.

Bravo!

You know, it's really not that bad.

You're clear with
everything we agreed on?

Yup. l've been up all night
rehearsing.

What do you do
when Harrison comes after you?

l sit still and look straight ahead.
Never look the jury.

-And?
-And l look modest.

-And?
-And...

-And say nothing.
-That's right, that's right.

-That was the deal, right?
-Right.

You ask me back,
l do all the talking and stuff.

Absolutely, Billy.
Whatever you say.

-Mr. Flynn, his honor is here.
-Thank you.

You ready?

Yeah.

Billy...

l'm scared.

Na, don't be.

l've been around a long time.
Believe me, you've got nothing to worry about.

lt's all a circus.
A three-ring circus.

These trials, the whole world...
it's all the show business.

But kid

You're working with a star

Give 'em the old razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle 'em

Give 'em act with lots of flash in it

And the reaction will be passionate

Give 'em the old hocus pocus

Bead and feather 'em

How can they see with sequins in their eyes?

What if your hinges all are rusting?

What if, in fact, you're just disgusting?

Razzle dazzle 'em

And they'll never catch wise

Give 'em the old razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle 'em

Give 'em a show that's so splendiferous

Row after row will grow vociferous

Give 'em the old flim flam flummox

Fool and fracture 'em

How can they hear the truth above the roar?

Throw 'em a fake and a finagle

They'll never know you're just a bagel

Razzle dazzle 'em

And they'll beg you for more

-Object!
-Sustained.

Your honour, l haven't even
asked a question yet.

Give 'em the old double whammy

Daze and dizzy 'em

Back since the days of old Methuselah

Everyone loves the big bambooz-a-ler

Give 'em the old three ring circus

Stun and stagger 'em

When you're in trouble, go into your dance

Though you are stiffer than a girder

They let ya get away with a murder

Razzle dazzle 'em

And you've got a romance

Hello, Amos.

Amos? That's right, Mr. Flynn. Amos

Amos, when did you file sue for divorce?

A month ago.

Was there any reason for
filing at this particular time?

l'd say, the newspapers said
Roxie was expecting a little stranger.

That's hardly a cause for divorce, isn't it?

A little too much of a stranger.

You mean you doubted
the fraternity of the child.

Well sure.

Tell me something, Amos.
You share a bed with your wife?

Yes, sir, every night.

You expect the jury to believe that

you slept next to this woman every night
without exercising the rights of a husband?

-l could if l want to.
-Oh, but you didn't.

-No, l did.
-Did what?

-Want to.
-But you didn't.

-Didn't what?
-What you wanted.

Wait a minute,
l'm getting confused here.

Hey, you tell me, Hart.
Since you ever question Roxie herself,

did you even bother to ask her
if you were the father of the child?

-No, sir.
-No. What?

lf you became convinced that you were wrong,
you'd be mad enough in a minute.

You would take her back if Roxie
swore that you're the father of the child,

-which she does.
-She does?

She does!

No more question!
You can step down now.

Well done, Andy.

Roxie, l'm so sorry.

Give 'em the old razzle dazzle

Razzle dazzle 'em

Show 'em the first rate sorcerer you are

Long as you keep 'em way off balance

How can they spot you got no talents?

Razzle dazzle 'em

Razzle dazzle 'em

Razzle dazzle 'em

This is the moment we've been waiting for.

Roxie Hart finally takes the stand
in her own defense.

And they'll make you a star!

Hold it!

Proceed, Mr. Flynn.

Roxie, l have here a statement
which you admitted having illicit relations

with deceased Fred Casely.
ls this statement true or false?

l'm afraid that's true.

You're an honestly girl, Roxie.

When did you first meet Fred Casely?

When he sold Amos and me our furniture.

Your personal relationship with him,
you tell the jury when that began.

When l permitted him
to escort me home one night,

l don't think l would've gone with him

if Mr. Hart and me hadn't
quarreled that very morning.

-Quarreled?
-Yes, sir.

Well, l supposed it was his fault.

Oh, no, sir. lt was my fault.

l supposed l just couldn't stop
pestering him.

Pestering him? About what?

l didn't like him working
those long hours at the garage.

l wanted him home with me...
to darn his socks and iron his shirts.

l wanted a real home and a child.

So you drifted into this illicit relationship
because you're unhappy at home.

Yes, was almost unhappy.

Roxie Hart!

The state has accused you
the murder of Fred Casely.

Are you guilty or not guilty?

l'm not guilty...

I'm not guilty

l killed him, l did. But l'm not a
criminal. l'm not a criminal...

I'm not a criminal

Roxie...

Do you recall the night of June 14th?

Could you tell the jury in your own
words the happenings of that night.

Well when Fred came over,
l told him a good news.

What was it?

That me and Amos are gonna have a baby.
And it was all over between us.

What happened then?

Then...

Then...

Did he threaten you, Roxie?

Objection, your honour.
Counsel is leading the witness.

Sustained.

What did Casely say
when you told him the news?

l'll kill you before l see
you have another man's child!

Could you tell the audience...
the jury, what happened next?

ln his passion, he tore off my robe
and he threw me on the bed.

And Mr. Hart's pistol
was lying there between us.

And then!

And then we both reached for the
gun but l got it first.

And then he came towards me
with this awny look in his eyes.

He was angry and wild!

Wild!

And did you think that
he might kill you?

Oh, yes, sir!

So was his life or yours?

And l just mine.
l closed my eyes and l shot!

It is defense for your life!

To save my husband's
innocent unborn child.

Order!

What a bull's eye, huh?

-Order in this courtroom!
-Roxie!

It's come demonian here in the courtroom...

Mrs. Hart's behavior
has been truly extraordinary.

Opening her eyes, she fenced herself
with her attorney's handkerchief.

-Handkerchief?
-Poor child has no relief.

She looks around now bewildered,
seeming to want something.

lt's a glass of water.

Oh, Mama, that was my bid!
l told Billy, l'm gonna do that at my trial!

But now her eyes
flatter wildly and she...

Mrs. Hart has fainted again.

She flumps over her chiffon dress
up around her knees,

revealing a glimpse of blue garter
with Ryan-stone buckle.

Oh, Mama, she stole my garter.
She stole my garter!

Don't break my radio!

First the slut steals my publicity,
then she steals my lawyer, my trial date,

now she stole my goddamn garter.

What do you expect?

l mean these days
you get a little success

and it's good rinse
for the people who put you here.

lt ain't no justice in the world.
That's nothing you can do about it.

Notes that

You think they got you a page
just to listen to my radio?

People write some public interesting things
when they think no one's looking.

Oh, Mama.

State calls a witness.

Left hand on the Bible, raise your right hand
and swear you'd tell the truth, the whole truth, nothing but truth swear to God.

Have a seat.

Would you state your name
for the record please.

Velma Kelly.

Miss Kelly, would you please tell
the court of the object l'm holding

is the one you happen to come upon
in the defendant jailhouse?

Yes, it is.

l submit this as Exhibitdex.
Roxie Hart's diary.

l object!
My client never kept a diary.

Even if she did, this would be invasion
of privacy and violation of fourth amendment

and illegal search without a warrant.

Yeah, and she broke the law.

Order!

Well, let's settle that. l'll allow it.

What's the big deal?
She's the one that did it.

lf you would read for us, Miss Kelly.

l haven't worked in a while.

What a laugh, plucking Fred Casely.

The big baboon had a common.

l'm just sorry l
only got to kill him once.

l never wrote that. You...
Hey, she made that up.

-She made that up!
-Order!

Please, Mr. Flynn,
get control of your client.

l'm sorry, you honour.
lt won't happen again.

Sit down and shut up.
Or else it gonna get worse.

l have no more questions.

Your witness, Mr. Flynn.

Ladies and gentlemen, a tap dance.

Tell me, Miss Kelly,
you make a deal with Mr. Harrison

maybe to drop all charges against you
in exchange of your testifying today?

No, sure. l'm not completed yet.

Good.

Then since you gave such an impressive
performance for Mr. Harrison,

can you do me the same honour?

-l'd be delighted.
-Thank you.

Fred Casely assured me to get me
an audition down at the Onyx.

And then he reneged on his pledge
and that was my motive for attack.

Pretty fancy. What you're saying

if a big fat liar
who rogue on a deal so l shot him.

Amos accused me of having an affair.

So l told him that the charge was erroneous.

Objection, your honour.

Mr. Flynn is twisting the evidence
to draw conclusion to the specious and the...

-Erroneous?
-Exactly.

Order!

Miss Kelly, did you know the
meaning of the word perjury?

Yes, l do.

-You also know that is a crime?
-Yes.

And for example if it turns out
you knew this diary was a fake,

l hate to think you rotting away in
prison for the next 10 years

especially when you just win your freedom.

All l know is what l was told.

So... you didn't find this diary in Roxie's cell?

No.

Mama... Miss Morton gave it to me.
She said someone sent it to her.

Someone? Any idea who
this mysterious benefactor might be?

No. She didn't know.

All right, let's see if it's gonna work so

Someone who writes about
reneging on pledges.

And... erroneous charges...

Call me crazy, does that
sound like a lawyer to you?

A lawyer, who honestly had
a sample of my client's handwriting.

Mr. Harrison, did you ask Roxie
to write out a confession for you?

Yes, but you're not suggesting that
l tempered with evidence, are you?

No, let's not be ridiculous.

That's certainly and utterly absurd.

Unless you mention it.

Your honour, this is outrageous.

Outrageous? Yes.

The prosecutor would made
a thief bargain with notorious Velma Kelly.

And then fabricated
the very evidence and set her free!

Mr. Flynn, hold your contempt.

No, it's not even conceivable.

But does it worked?
Would it be time to say,

Come clean,
Mr. Harrison, come clean...

Even with your , this kind of corruption.
l cannot stand.

That's enough, Mr. Flynn!

l agree, your honour. That's enough!

Let defence rest

Ladies and gentlemen,

this is Mary Sunshine reporting live
from the Cooke County Courthouse.

The city of Chicago has come
to a complete stand still.

As the trial of century finally draw to a close.

Mrs. Hart sits quietly
at the defense table, hands folded.

Wondering what fate has installed for her?

And how hushing over the courtroom

as the 12 men of the jury
fall slowly back to their seats.

Gentlemen of the jury,
have you reach a verdict?

We have, your honour.

The jury has reached a verdict.

The defendant please rise.

What is your verdict?

We, the jury, find the defendant...

"Guilty"

"Innocent"

Roxie Hart is innocent!
She's innocent!

Get your paper

Roxie Hart is free!

She's free

Roxie

Come on! Move it!

She shoots her husband and
she crossed the lawyer!

Hey, don't you wanna take my picture?

Hey, l'm the famous Roxie Hart.

Hey, what happened?
What the hell happened?

lt's Chicago, kid.
You can't beat fresh blood on the walls.

What about my publicity, Billy?
My name in the papers.

l was counting on that.

Your attitude is not the one l get.
l just save your life.

You got $5,000.
What do l get? l get nothing.

Five? Actually it's ten
once l collect from Velma.

l get nothing?

Don't forget your diary.

If you don't mind.
l had a few erroneous phrases in there.

Sorry, l couldn't tell you.

Take a chance.

Never lost a case.

You're a free woman, Roxie Hart.

And God save lllinois.

Roxie.

What do you want?

l want you to come home.

You said you still wanted to...
and the baby...

Baby, what baby?

Oh, Jesus.

What do you take me for?

There ain't no baby.

There ain't no baby?

They didn't even want my picture.

l just can't understand that.

Why didn't they even want my picture?

It's good, isn't it?

Grand, isn't it?

Great, isn't it?

Swell, isn't it?

Fun, isn't it?

Nowadays

Ladies and gentlemen,
Miss Roxie Hart says Good Night.

There's man, everywhere

Jazz, everywhere

Booze, everywhere

Life, everywhere

Joy, everywhere

Nowadays

You can like the life you're living

You can live the life you like

You can even marry Harry

But mess around with Ike

And that's good, isn't it?

Grand, isn't it?

Great, isn't it?

Swell, isn't it?

Fun, isn't it?

But nothing stays

You can like the life you're living

You can live the life you like

Didn't she kill a guy a while back?

Yeah, who can keep it straight anymore?

But mess around with Ike

And that's good, isn't it?

Grand, isn't it?

Great, isn't it?

Swell, isn't it?

That's great. We'll be in touch.

You know l'm not quite finished yet.
l have a...

Wait, don't go.

l could... just a second I'm not...

Goddamn it!

Thank you!

Here's your music, honey.

Thanks.

You know you're really pretty good.

Yeah.

What are you doing here?

l've been making around.

Well, if not fooled up by you,
l'll be swinging right now.

Come on, l was there to get you off.

You should learn how
to put things behind you.

Thank you.
l'll put that at the top of my list

right after finding a job
and an apartment with a john.

Can you shut up and listen to me?

You really are something.

Coming in here like some goddamn queen bee,
full of advice for a poor slob like me.

Let me tell you something,
Miss Velma Kelly.

l got a new life now.

And one of the best thing about it,
is it don't include you.

Fine. l just thought we could
help each other out.

Wait, you thought wrong, didn't you?

Now look, listen to me.

Look l talked to this guy downtown.

He says one chance hurts nothing
these days, but two...

We can make a couple hundred a week.

Think about it, Roxie.

Our faces back in the papers
our names in the market.

Velma Kelly and Roxie Hart.

Shouldn't it be alphabetical?

That could work.

A couple hundred?
Maybe we can ask for a thousand.

We'll worth it.

Forget it, it'll never work.

-Why not?
-'Cause l hate you.

There's only one business in the
world that's no problem at all.

Ladies and gentlemen, the Chicago
theatre is proud to announce the first.

The first time anywhere
that's been an act out of this nation.

Not only one little lady, but two.

You read about them in the papers,
and now here they are.

Chicago zone killer-dealers, the lady-sinners,

Roxie Hart and Velma Kelly!

You can like the life you're living

You can live the life you like

You can even marry Harry

But mess around with Ike

And that's good, isn't it?

Grand, isn't it?

Great, isn't it?

Swell, isn't it?

Fun, isn't it?

But nothing stays

In fifty years or so

It's gonna change, you know

But, oh, it's heaven

Nowadays

Okay, you babes of Jazz,
Let's pick up the pace.

Let's make the party longer,
let's make the skirt shorter.

Let's all go to hell
in a fast car and KEEP IT HOT

Me and Roxie would just like to say thank you.

Thank you!

Believe us, we could've never
done anything without you!

And all that Jazz

That Jazz
