This is a classy movie - Chicago Reviews

I usually don't like musicals, but this one is different. It's about a woman who wants to be a broadway singer, so everything that happens around her is translated into a musical number in her head. This film has no lip-syncing and no cheesy impromptu line dancing. All the singing and dancing are done by the real actors, and there's even this really cool tap dance performed by Richard Gere himself. The story is all about a woman who goes to prison for murder and hires Chicago's best lawyer to get her off the hook. The film is very glossy and very artistic, but the acting lives up to it.
