Come see Chicago presented on 35mm film on the big screen in L3!

Chicago is a multi-Academy-Award-winning musical with a catchy soundtrack partnered with stunning visuals which earned it “Best Picture” for 2003. This film is a spectacle of murder and fame set in a jazzy 1920’s Chicago and is a fantastic adaptation of the stage musical of the same name. I think it translates so well from stage to film, having a great balance of interesting plot and engaging musical numbers to tell the story in a unique way. Housewife Roxie and show-girl Velma are both in jail awaiting trial for their respective murders when both find themselves being represented by Chicago’s flashiest hotshot lawyer. Billy Flynn has won every case for the female clients he’s represented, using his tried-and-true strategy of making these criminals famous and gaining the public's favour. So, Roxie and Velma are in a battle of who-will-make-the-front-page as they await their trials and will string any lie if it means a ticket off of death row. All of the characters are unlikeable but in a fun kitsch way and the songs will be stuck in your head for days. [Victoria Beaumont]
