Chicago

The city of Chicago stops at nothing. People always look for 'hot' news and that hot news could be anything, a woman killing her illicit lover or some new 'hot' chicks in the theatre.

A budding theatre artist is looking forward to a big break, falls in trap of a furniture seller who promises here a big break with help of his non-existant connections with theatre of the city. She is taken to jail where she hires the best lawyer in the city (who has never lost a case).

The lawyer frames up a nice story to show the murder as a self defense case. But then there is another character in the story who is a reputed theatre artist, facing death penalty for murdering her sister when she was playing around with her husband. This character playes foul and tries to ruin the case.

So finally what happens? Does the lawyer win the case? Does the budding artist become the front page artist? Check out the newspapers of Chicago.

This movie is more of a musical story, heavily loaded with Jazz. Not a big storyline but definitely some big names in Hollywood - Richard Gere, Catherine Zeta-Jones and Renee Zellweger and Lucy Liu in small cameo role. A typical theatre show.
