Trivia

There are several differences between the film and stage versions that presented challenges in bringing the project to the screen. A significant difference is the portrayal of reporter Mary Sunshine (played in the film by Christine Baranski). In the stage version, Mary Sunshine is played by a very convincing female impersonator who appears to be a large, matronly woman. He sings falsetto, and the audience is not aware that he is a man until the second act, after a line to the effect of "Things are not always what they appear to be!" and someone pulls off the wig and dress, revealing the truth about Mary Sunshine.

Goofs

Anachronisms: Although Amos gives Flynn "large bill" currency notes (25% larger than the "small bills" in use since 1929) when paying Roxie's retainer, Velma and Roxie clearly use anachronistic small bills in the prison scenes. See more »

Quotes

Roxie: But look at that soul. I tell ya that hole is a whole lot greater than the sum of his parts. And if you knew him like me. I know you'd agree.

Crazy Credits

The title "CHICAGO" appears as a "C" in the middle of a zoom of Roxie's
eye, then the rest of the letters light up around it. See more »
