        I think this is the only comment I’ve ever seen anywhere referencing Chicago. Congratulations! Your prize is the knowledge that my wife and I still occasionally use jazz-hands as code for “that person had it coming.”

          Broadway Chicago reference good. Movie Chicago reference… go listen to the Broadway soundtrack and hear how it’s supposed to sound.

            Fair enough. I enjoy musical theater, but that one never grabbed me. So the movie’s my only point of reference, and I wasn’t a big fan. Don’t think it deserved to beat out Gosford Park or Fellowship of the Ring for best picture.

              Honestly, if the only way you know the music is from the movie, I’m not surprised it didn’t grab you.
