The Library Spring 2008 Film Series will present, as its second featured film, the musical CHICAGO on Monday, February 25, at 6:00 p.m., in the Library Classroom, 2nd floor. This is the second film in the series.
Winner of six Academy Awards(R) (2003) including Best Picture, and starring RenĂ©e Zellweger, Catherine Zeta-Jones, Queen Latifah, Richard Gere, and John C. Reilly – CHICAGO is a dazzling spectacle cheered by audiences and critics alike! At a time when crimes of passion result in celebrity headlines, nightclub sensation Velma Kelly (Zeta-Jones) and spotlight-seeking Roxie Hart (Zellweger) both find themselves sharing space on Chicago's famed Murderess Row! They also share Billy Flynn (Gere), the town's slickest lawyer with a talent for turning notorious defendants into local legends. But in Chicago, there's only room for one legend!
The film will be introduced by Dr. Deanne D’Emilio who will also moderate a post-viewing Q & A session.
