Synopsis
The 2002 Oscar for Best Picture went to this adaptation of Bob Fosse's 1975 Broadway musical, which tells the tale of two schrewd, sexy women. One an aspisring singer (Renee Zellweger), the other a vaudeville dancer (Catherine Zeta-Jones), who both end up in jail for murder. Once imprisoned, they both compete for the attention and adoration of the tabloid media and a dashing lawyer (Richard Gere).
