Movie Moment: Chicago
Unlike Moulin Rouge!, where the editing and camerawork never let you forget it was there, Chicago sometimes felt like a “legit” musical performed with smoothly varied perspective.
It’s more than just a musical on film, but not so much that you shouldn’t see it live instead, without the safety net of multiple takes. Of course, I still haven’t seen the Broadway version, so who knows what the hell I’m talking about.
