Bob Fosse's sexy cynicism still shines in Chicago, a faithful movie adaptation of the choreographer-director's 1975 Broadway musical. Of course the story, all about merry murderesses and tabloid fame, is set in the Roaring '20s, but Chicago reeks of '70s disenchantment--this isn't just Fosse's material, it's his attitude, too. That's probably why the movie's breathless observations on fleeting fame and fickle public taste already seem dated. However, Renée Zellweger and Catherine Zeta-Jones are beautifully matched as Jazz Age vixens, and Richard Gere gleefully sheds his customary cool to belt out a showstopper. (Yes, they all do their own singing and dancing.) Whatever qualms musical purists may have about director Rob Marshall's cut-cut-cut style, the film's sheer exuberance is intoxicating. Given the scarcity of big-screen musicals in the last 25 years, that's a cause for singing, dancing, cheering. And all that jazz. --Robert Horton
Winner of six Academy Awards(R) (2002) including Best Picture, and starring Academy Award nominee (Best Actress, CHICAGO) and Golden Globe winner (Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy, CHICAGO) Renee Zellweger (BRIDGET JONES'S DIARY), Academy Award winner (Best Supporting Actress, CHICAGO) Catherine Zeta-Jones (TRAFFIC), Academy Award nominee (Best Supporting Actress, CHICAGO) Queen Latifah (BRINGING DOWN THE HOUSE), Golden Globe winner (Best Actor in a Musical or Comedy, CHICAGO) Richard Gere (UNFAITHFUL), and Academy Award nominee (Best Supporting Actor, CHICAGO) John C. Reilly (GANGS OF NEW YORK) -- 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! Also starring Lucy Liu (CHARLIE'S ANGELS).

UNTOUCHABLES:SPECIAL COLLECTOR'S EDIT - DVD Movie
As noted critic Pauline Kael wrote, the 1987 box-office hit The Untouchables is "like an attempt to visualize the public's collective dream of Chicago gangsters." In other words, this lavish reworking of the vintage TV series is a rousing potboiler from a bygone era, so beautifully designed and photographed--and so craftily directed by Brian De Palma--that the historical reality of Prohibition-era Chicago could only pale in comparison. From a script by David Mamet, the movie pits four underdog heroes (the maverick lawmen known as the Untouchables) against a singular villain in Al Capone, played by Robert De Niro as a dapper caesar holding court (and a baseball bat) against any and all challengers. Kevin Costner is the naive federal agent Eliot Ness, whose lack of experience is tempered by the streetwise alliance of a seasoned Chicago cop (Sean Connery, in an Oscar-winning performance), a rookie marksman (Andy Garcia), and an accountant (Charles Martin Smith) who holds the key to Capone's potential downfall. The movie approaches greatness on the strength of its set pieces, such as the siege near the Canadian border, the venal ambush at Connery's apartment, and the train-station shootout partially modeled after the "Odessa steps" sequences of the Russian classic Battleship Potemkin. It's thrilling stuff, fueled by Ennio Morricone's dynamic score, but it's also manipulative and obvious. If you're inclined to be critical, the movie gives you reason to complain. If you'd rather sit back and enjoy a first-rate production with an all-star cast, The Untouchables may very well strike you as a classic. --Jeff Shannon

Jersey Boys (2005 Original Broadway Cast Recording)
List Price: $18.98
Sale Price: $8.65

Although it squarely falls in the "jukebox musical" category, Jersey Boys doesn¹t try to integrate its songs in an artificial plotline. The show tells the story of the early-1960s group the Four Seasons, and the musical numbers tend to be introduced in context, as when songwriter Bob Gaudio comes up with a tune, or the quartet performs a show. This allows Jersey Boys to flow better than some of ill-fated peers, and the actors can shine without having to bend backward to accommodate an inane book. The show's most (only) daring move is to start with a hip-hop-tinged French-language version of "December 1963 (Oh, What a Night)," an actual hit in France in 2000. After that it's all VH1-biopic territory, but it's done with so much flair, taste and energy that the ride's a fun one. The Four Seasons had enough hits ("Sherry," "Big Girls Don't Cry," "Rag Doll," etc.) to easily fill an evening at the theater, so it's left to the cast to do right by them. And it does, particularly John Lloyd Young as the band¹s star lead, Frankie Valli. Young hits all the falsetto notes and brings real freshness to the part. His "Can¹t Take My Eyes Off You," a second-act peak, is signed, sealed and delivered with a star's acumen. --Elisabeth Vincentelli

Chicago Political Corruption!
Most people don't have a very high standard placed on politicians. And politicians from Louisiana or Illinois have an even lower threshold for honesty and integrity. Why, you can take a 100,000 bribe, stuff the money in your freezer and pretend all is legal when you get caught. And then get re-elected. No big deal. I can't imagine what arrogance, stupidity, or both that allows a man under investigation, as Illinois Gov. Rod Blagojevich, was and then still say the things he did- on tape!
Doesn't the fact that the last governor is in jail say something? The fact three Illinois governors have gone to jail doesn't cause one to clean up their act? Or is corruption so ingrained in Illinois that one cannot help themselves? Just look at a couple of Illinois politicians as an example.
• Former Alderman Arenda Troutman pleaded guilty This Year to mail fraud and income tax evasion after federal officials accused her of accepting bribes for a project in her ward. She was busted on tape in a sting about the fictitious development, allegedly asking, "What do I get out of it?" and adding, "Most aldermen, most politicians are hos."
• Former City Clerk James J. Laski was charged in January 2006 and later convicted and sent to the federal pen for accepting thousands of dollars, as well as obstructing justice, in the city's infamous Hired Truck scandal, in which private truck operators were paid for city work. Multiple defendants went to jail and had to repay millions in the scandal, which was broken by the Chicago Sun-Times.
• Former Gov. George Ryan gained national prestige for putting a moratorium on the death penalty, but that didn't keep him out of prison after the feds convicted him in April 2006 of steering state contracts to friends for bribes, as well as using his office for political gain. Sen. Dick Durbin is seeking a commutation of Ryan's 6½-year sentence from President Bush.
• Robert Sorich, the former patronage chief of Chicago Mayor Richard Daley, and three other city officials were convicted in July 2006 of using their positions to award jobs to Daley supporters and campaign workers.
• Former Cicero, Illinois, Town President Betty Loren-Maltese and six others were convicted in a $12 million scam. One of the six was a reputed Mafia boss in the town.
One can't help but wonder how Barack Hussein Obama came out of it so clean. Or, has he? Will the Rezko land deal Come Back to haunt him? And what about Obama's chief of staff Rahm Emmanuel? Man oh man! What's up with politics in Shy-town, the Windy city, the Daly dungeon?
