TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

In the beginning of the scene introducing Matron Mama Morton (Queen Latifah) to the new inmates, Roxie Hart (Renée Zellweger) has a brief conversation with a woman smoking a cigarette. That character is played by long-time Broadway actress Chita Rivera, who portrayed Velma Kelly in the original 1975 production of "Chicago".

Director Rob Marshall wanted Catherine Zeta-Jones to wear her naturally long hair in this movie, but she insisted on the short bob. She explained to People Magazine that she didn't want her hair to fall over her face and give people a reason to doubt that she did all of the dancing herself.

John C. Reilly is such a clown enthusiast, he insisted on designing his own clown make-up for "Mister Cellophane". It was also his idea to incorporate Amos' application of the make-up during the number.

Richard Gere took tap dancing lessons for three months. His tap dance scene was shot in half a day.

The play "Chicago" was Maurine Dallas Watkins' retelling of two very public murder trials that occurred in Chicago in 1924, those of Beulah Sheriff-Annan and Belva Gaertner. Watkins covered these trials for the Chicago Tribune and wrote the character of Mary Sunshine as a self portrait. For Belva Gaertner (better known as Velma Kelly), she had a much less glitzy fate. She was acquitted and went on to have a few run-ins with the law, but ended up living a semi-normal life before dying of natural causes in California in 1965 at the age of eighty. Although in the case of Beulah Sheriff-Annan (a.k.a. Roxie Hart), it was more of a grisly end. It's true she was acquitted of murdering her lover, thanks to the skills of her highly paid attorney, who was bankrolled by her stunningly loyal husband. She repaid that debt by publicly divorcing him after her release. She married two more times before her death from tuberculosis four years later.

Popular Dialogues

"Liz: Pop. Annie: Six. June: Squish. Hunyack: Unh-uh. Velma Kelly: Cicero. Mona: Lipschitz."

"June: I'm standin' in the kitchen, carving up a chicken for dinner, minding my own business, when in storms my husband, Wilbur, in a jealous rage. "You've been screwing the milkman," he said. He was crazy, and he kept on screaming, "You've been screwing the milkman." And then he ran into my knife... he ran into my knife ten times."
