1
00:01:44,637 --> 00:01:48,232
All right, break it up.
Get back. Get moving.
2
00:01:48,308 --> 00:01:50,299
What happened?
3
00:02:00,987 --> 00:02:03,581
All right, move along.
4
00:02:09,329 --> 00:02:11,661
Make mine a scotch and soda, double.
What about you?
5
00:02:11,731 --> 00:02:13,926
- I'll have a root beer.
- Root beer?
6
00:02:14,000 --> 00:02:16,264
Well, it's your liver, my friend.
7
00:02:24,110 --> 00:02:27,375
Night desk?
About that shooting...
8
00:02:27,447 --> 00:02:29,847
the guy that was shot,
his name is Leonard Moss.
9
00:02:29,916 --> 00:02:32,248
M- O- double "S."
As in "Sam," yeah.
10
00:02:32,318 --> 00:02:35,185
Hold it.
Let's have another, same thing.
11
00:02:35,255 --> 00:02:39,214
He was in a crap game.
Uh, hold it.
12
00:02:39,292 --> 00:02:42,022
- Hey, you all right?
- I just never saw a stiff before.
13
00:02:42,095 --> 00:02:44,359
No? Well, I always thought
newspaper reporters...
14
00:02:44,430 --> 00:02:46,955
This is my first day at it.
15
00:02:47,033 --> 00:02:49,433
Okay, I'll call you later.
16
00:02:49,502 --> 00:02:54,235
Ernie wants us to stick around awhile
just in case.
17
00:02:54,307 --> 00:02:56,434
- You all right?
- I'm all right.
18
00:02:56,509 --> 00:02:59,740
It's probably that stuff you're
drinking. How about bringing that bottle?
19
00:02:59,812 --> 00:03:03,213
- All right.
- Another thing you've got to remember about newspaper work...
20
00:03:03,283 --> 00:03:07,310
The public always expects a newspaperman
to do a lot of drinking...
21
00:03:07,387 --> 00:03:10,948
and so you mustn't ever
let the public down.
22
00:03:11,024 --> 00:03:14,983
- You think this story will make the front page?
- Be lucky to get in at all.
23
00:03:15,061 --> 00:03:18,929
One dice hustler
shoots another dice hustler. So what?
24
00:03:18,998 --> 00:03:21,831
They don't seem to have the murders
these days like they used to.
25
00:03:21,901 --> 00:03:24,233
Different class of people, I guess.
26
00:03:25,672 --> 00:03:27,663
What's the matter with this crate?
27
00:03:27,740 --> 00:03:30,573
That thing ain't worked in 10 years.
28
00:03:30,643 --> 00:03:32,736
L- I don't suppose
there's any connection...
29
00:03:32,812 --> 00:03:35,940
but we haven't had a real good
juicy murder story in this town...
30
00:03:36,015 --> 00:03:38,347
since the Democrats
got hold of the country.
31
00:03:38,418 --> 00:03:41,216
Back under the Republicans...
32
00:03:46,025 --> 00:03:49,859
Well, how do you like that?
33
00:03:49,929 --> 00:03:53,456
Ten years?
That's more like 15.
34
00:03:53,533 --> 00:03:55,933
Yeah.
35
00:03:56,002 --> 00:03:59,130
# Mine in May, His in June #
36
00:03:59,205 --> 00:04:03,039
# She forgot mighty soon #
37
00:04:08,681 --> 00:04:12,014
1927. Remember that?
38
00:04:13,219 --> 00:04:16,347
Yeah. Uh-huh.
39
00:04:21,861 --> 00:04:24,887
#There they go in their joy #
40
00:04:24,964 --> 00:04:27,990
# Happy girl, lucky boy #
41
00:04:28,067 --> 00:04:30,865
#And here am I #
42
00:04:30,937 --> 00:04:36,034
# Brokenhearted ##
43
00:04:36,109 --> 00:04:39,977
That's what I mean. That's the song
they sang for Roxie Hart.
44
00:04:41,414 --> 00:04:43,541
- And was that a story.
- What was?
45
00:04:44,651 --> 00:04:46,585
Roxie.
46
00:04:47,920 --> 00:04:49,911
- Customers.
- All right. I'll get 'em.
47
00:04:49,989 --> 00:04:52,856
I'll get 'em. Hello, boys.
48
00:04:52,959 --> 00:04:56,224
Charge your glasses, gentlemen.
To Roxie Hart...
49
00:04:56,296 --> 00:04:59,561
the prettiest woman
ever tried for murder in Cook County.
50
00:04:59,632 --> 00:05:03,261
Okay, partner.
To Roxie Hart.
51
00:05:03,336 --> 00:05:05,600
To Roxie Hart.
52
00:05:06,739 --> 00:05:08,934
Well, what about her?
53
00:05:09,008 --> 00:05:12,375
- You remember that story?
- Yeah, some of it.
54
00:05:12,445 --> 00:05:15,676
1926, '27, '28...
55
00:05:15,748 --> 00:05:18,774
the bad old days when everything went
and everything was big...
56
00:05:18,851 --> 00:05:21,877
big money, big crooks, big murders,
big stories.
57
00:05:21,954 --> 00:05:24,855
- "Keep cool with Coolidge. "
"Keep cockeyed with Capone. "
58
00:05:24,924 --> 00:05:27,358
"Keep daffy with Daddy Browning. "
59
00:05:27,427 --> 00:05:32,057
This seems to call for a spot of music,
and serve everybody a round on me.
60
00:05:32,131 --> 00:05:35,100
What about Roxie Hart?
61
00:05:35,168 --> 00:05:37,432
Roxie Hart, the Teapot Dome,
62
00:05:37,503 --> 00:05:40,597
The 18th Amendment,
the Monkey Trial, Carl Wanderer...
63
00:05:40,673 --> 00:05:43,107
Texas Guinan, Mayor Thompson.
64
00:05:43,176 --> 00:05:45,542
#The black bottom #
65
00:05:45,611 --> 00:05:47,943
# Black bottom #
66
00:05:48,014 --> 00:05:51,245
Hall-Mills, Judd Gray and Ruth Snyder.
67
00:05:51,317 --> 00:05:55,014
I wanna hear what you got to say
about Roxie Hart.
68
00:05:56,622 --> 00:05:59,955
Why not?
That was the best of them all.
69
00:06:00,026 --> 00:06:03,120
That was all of them rolled into one...
70
00:06:03,196 --> 00:06:05,221
15 years ago...
71
00:06:05,298 --> 00:06:07,289
and I remember it like it was yesterday.
72
00:06:07,367 --> 00:06:10,097
That first flash of a shooting.
73
00:06:16,376 --> 00:06:18,936
The police?
This is Finnegan...
74
00:06:19,011 --> 00:06:21,605
the janitor at 1442 South Melrose.
75
00:06:21,681 --> 00:06:26,345
Somebody just shot somebody
in apartment six!
76
00:06:26,419 --> 00:06:29,445
And I make this statement voluntarily...
77
00:06:29,522 --> 00:06:32,150
and of my own free will.
78
00:06:32,225 --> 00:06:34,352
Freely and gladly.
79
00:06:34,427 --> 00:06:37,260
I fired five shots into the man...
80
00:06:37,330 --> 00:06:41,164
- Smack into him.
- Killing him instantly.
81
00:06:41,234 --> 00:06:44,362
Like a dog.
82
00:06:44,437 --> 00:06:47,099
- Cheerful little assassin.
- Assassin?
83
00:06:47,173 --> 00:06:49,641
Is it assassination to shoot a burglar?
84
00:06:49,709 --> 00:06:53,611
What would you do if you came home and
found somebody banging on the bedroom door?
85
00:06:53,679 --> 00:06:56,443
- Check on the wife.
- But she wasn't here, I tell you.
86
00:06:56,516 --> 00:07:00,316
Wasn't nobody here.
I come home from the poolroom and...
87
00:07:00,386 --> 00:07:02,513
You know,
I'm the best snooker player down there.
88
00:07:02,588 --> 00:07:04,613
- Yeah. And as I go...
- Come on. Come on. Sign it.
89
00:07:04,690 --> 00:07:07,784
He ain't tryin' the case.
He's just a reporter.
90
00:07:07,860 --> 00:07:11,887
Not bad, huh? One hour, and we got
the guy and a signed confession.
91
00:07:11,964 --> 00:07:14,899
Last week, a jury thanked a man
for killing a burglar.
92
00:07:14,967 --> 00:07:17,026
This week, they're giving a Hupmobile.
93
00:07:17,103 --> 00:07:19,628
- Where do you think the madam could be?
- The what?
94
00:07:21,073 --> 00:07:23,701
- The wife.
- The movies, maybe.
95
00:07:23,776 --> 00:07:26,040
Let's go outside
and have a talk with the prosecutor.
96
00:07:26,112 --> 00:07:28,580
Say, is he trying
to insinuate something?
97
00:07:31,784 --> 00:07:36,153
- How do you look at this thing?
- That's my wife. She's artistic.
98
00:07:36,222 --> 00:07:40,716
I'll never see anything that reminded me
less of Whistler's Mother.
99
00:07:47,300 --> 00:07:49,825
- Everybody through with this?
- It's all yours, Doctor.
100
00:07:49,902 --> 00:07:53,531
I believe that if everybody
would love everybody else...
101
00:07:53,606 --> 00:07:57,372
Okay, Billy Sunday, let's go.
102
00:07:57,477 --> 00:08:02,176
Yeah. Well, that's about all it is,
I'm afraid... routine 12-B.
103
00:08:02,248 --> 00:08:04,876
Yeah.
Joe theJerk defends the little nest...
104
00:08:04,951 --> 00:08:09,479
while Miss Flapper Wife
is out mooning overJohn Gilbert.
105
00:08:10,756 --> 00:08:13,190
Okay, Tommy.
See you later.
106
00:08:32,979 --> 00:08:36,142
How do?
Oh, no, you don't!
107
00:08:36,215 --> 00:08:39,616
I want to have a couple of words
with you. That's all I want.
108
00:08:39,685 --> 00:08:42,882
Oh! Oh, hey! Cut it out, will ya?
109
00:08:42,955 --> 00:08:45,423
- I only want to say a word...
- Let me go!
110
00:08:45,491 --> 00:08:48,585
Oh, no.
111
00:08:48,661 --> 00:08:53,621
Will you cut it out?
I'm not a copper!
112
00:08:53,699 --> 00:08:56,827
- What are you?
- I'm a newspaperman.
113
00:09:00,840 --> 00:09:03,138
Oh!
114
00:09:03,209 --> 00:09:05,507
- All right!
- Let me go!
115
00:09:05,578 --> 00:09:07,603
Oh, no!
116
00:09:07,680 --> 00:09:10,774
There's a cop there, lady.
You want me to call him or not?
117
00:09:10,850 --> 00:09:12,943
- What do you want?
- I want the story.
118
00:09:13,019 --> 00:09:15,317
I want you to tell me
what really happened in here.
119
00:09:15,388 --> 00:09:17,413
- You heard him. I was...
- Don't give me that.
120
00:09:17,490 --> 00:09:20,254
You weren't skinnying around the outside
of this building for your health.
121
00:09:20,326 --> 00:09:23,227
- Come on, let's have it.
- You let me go!
122
00:09:27,199 --> 00:09:30,327
- You plugged him, didn't you?
- Are you batty?
123
00:09:30,403 --> 00:09:33,133
Come on. What are you scared of?
They won't do anything to you.
124
00:09:33,205 --> 00:09:35,469
This county never does anything
to a dame.
125
00:09:35,541 --> 00:09:38,169
Cook County is the most gallant county
in the whole country.
126
00:09:38,244 --> 00:09:40,712
Why, a pretty murderess
is as safe here...
127
00:09:40,780 --> 00:09:43,340
as she is in her mother's arms.
128
00:09:43,416 --> 00:09:47,443
What do you want me to do,
say I shot him when I didn't?
129
00:09:47,520 --> 00:09:49,715
- Oh, no, you're not. Come here.
- Let me go.
130
00:09:49,789 --> 00:09:53,885
Cut it out, will you?
You do that again, I'll break your arm.
131
00:09:53,960 --> 00:09:58,056
No, uh, uh, uh!
No more billy goats either.
132
00:09:58,130 --> 00:10:01,861
Oh, please let me go. I didn't do it.
I swear I didn't. He shot him!
133
00:10:01,934 --> 00:10:04,630
But why did he shoot him?
Because he busted in and caught you.
134
00:10:04,704 --> 00:10:06,695
He didn't have to bust in.
The door was open.
135
00:10:06,772 --> 00:10:09,002
Oh, mercy me. Mercy me.
136
00:10:09,075 --> 00:10:11,305
Bring the body back in the parlor.
137
00:10:13,112 --> 00:10:15,478
- We gotta get outta here.
- Oh, no! Cut it out. Look, honey.
138
00:10:15,548 --> 00:10:17,743
You and me is gonna
have a nice little talk.
139
00:10:17,817 --> 00:10:19,842
Look, honeysuckle,
you get right in there...
140
00:10:19,919 --> 00:10:22,717
and Daddy will be back
in just a few minutes.
141
00:10:25,658 --> 00:10:29,594
We met this gentleman downstairs.
He says he knows the stiff.
142
00:10:29,662 --> 00:10:31,687
Who are you?
143
00:10:31,764 --> 00:10:34,198
E. Clay Benham at your service...
144
00:10:34,266 --> 00:10:37,201
of Benham and Casely,
theatrical booking agents.
145
00:10:37,269 --> 00:10:40,761
That is... or that was my partner,
the late Mr. Casely.
146
00:10:40,840 --> 00:10:45,277
I don't want to seem crude, but I'd like somebody
to make up their mind about these remains.
147
00:10:45,344 --> 00:10:47,369
He wasn't no midget, remember.
148
00:10:47,446 --> 00:10:49,437
You positively identify this man?
149
00:10:49,515 --> 00:10:52,109
- Gladly. That is, naturally.
- Take it away.
150
00:10:52,184 --> 00:10:55,745
Just ring twice anytime.
Service with a smile.
151
00:10:55,821 --> 00:10:58,016
- What do you know about this?
- Very little, I'm afraid.
152
00:10:58,090 --> 00:11:00,217
- I didn't even know that Roxie was married.
- Roxie?
153
00:11:00,292 --> 00:11:03,261
Mrs. Hart. She was a client of ours
in a way of speaking.
154
00:11:03,329 --> 00:11:07,766
- We weren't able to place her.
- What particular talent was she peddling?
155
00:11:07,833 --> 00:11:11,360
She described herself, I believe,
as a dancer.
156
00:11:11,437 --> 00:11:15,601
I don't believe it.
She wouldn't lie to me like that.
157
00:11:15,675 --> 00:11:18,974
She was here washing the dishes
all the time.
158
00:11:19,045 --> 00:11:23,141
My dear fellow, it's a matter of record.
She's been on Mr. Casely's doorstep for weeks.
159
00:11:23,215 --> 00:11:25,581
Only this afternoon,
she insisted on another audition.
160
00:11:25,651 --> 00:11:29,087
And she told me
she'd never seen him before.
161
00:11:29,155 --> 00:11:32,556
Never seen him before in her life!
A complete stranger!
162
00:11:32,625 --> 00:11:34,752
She, uh, liked Mr. Casely?
163
00:11:34,827 --> 00:11:39,093
Well, let us say, rather,
that Mrs. Hart was ambitious and female.
164
00:11:39,165 --> 00:11:42,464
- A coquette.
- The word is nicely chosen.
165
00:11:42,535 --> 00:11:44,662
Mr. Casely was responsive to her appeal?
166
00:11:44,737 --> 00:11:48,503
Fred was a man who was always sensitive
to a well-turned ankle.
167
00:11:48,574 --> 00:11:50,701
A wolf?
168
00:11:51,977 --> 00:11:53,968
De mortuis nil nisi bonum.
169
00:11:54,046 --> 00:11:57,311
- Yeah. A wolf.
- But why?
170
00:11:57,383 --> 00:12:01,251
- Is Roxie the one that plugged him?
- She is!
171
00:12:01,320 --> 00:12:03,311
Why should I try to protect her?
172
00:12:03,389 --> 00:12:06,187
What should I take the rap
when all the time she was lying to me?
173
00:12:06,258 --> 00:12:10,752
I bring her to Chicago, I get her a job
and this is what she does to me.
174
00:12:10,830 --> 00:12:12,821
I wasn't even in the room.
175
00:12:12,898 --> 00:12:16,265
I was coming up them stairs
when "bang, bang, bang. "
176
00:12:16,335 --> 00:12:20,431
There she was with the rod in her hand
and him folding up right there.
177
00:12:20,506 --> 00:12:23,942
Well! Well, this is
a little more like it!
178
00:12:24,009 --> 00:12:26,034
And all the time,
I'm trying to believe her.
179
00:12:26,112 --> 00:12:29,809
I'm trying to make myself believe her
because I wanted to believe her.
180
00:12:29,882 --> 00:12:31,873
- Where is she now?
- On the roof, hiding.
181
00:12:31,951 --> 00:12:34,010
- Excuse me.
- Downstairs. Cover the building.
182
00:12:34,086 --> 00:12:36,077
You come with me.
183
00:12:38,090 --> 00:12:41,787
On the Hart story, a perfectly lovely
situation has developed.
184
00:12:41,861 --> 00:12:44,796
Joe theJerk has now pinned it
on the little woman.
185
00:12:44,864 --> 00:12:47,458
- I want to issue a statement.
- Oh, hold it, Tommy.
186
00:12:47,533 --> 00:12:49,899
You're not going to change
your mind again, I hope.
187
00:12:49,969 --> 00:12:54,167
Why, you liar!
I didn't do it! Let me out ofhere!
188
00:12:54,240 --> 00:12:57,368
Hold it, Tommy,
they're coming through the walls.
189
00:12:57,443 --> 00:13:01,743
Boy, it is Mrs. Hart.
190
00:13:01,814 --> 00:13:04,578
Take it easy. Take it easy.
Take it easy, will you, honey?
191
00:13:04,650 --> 00:13:07,744
You don't want to damage your defense.
192
00:13:11,624 --> 00:13:14,252
- Nothing doing down here.
- All right. Help the sergeant up here.
193
00:13:14,326 --> 00:13:18,092
- I'll watch the fire escape.
- Okay.
194
00:13:18,164 --> 00:13:20,598
Keep this wire open, Tommy.
Santa Claus is coming.
195
00:13:20,666 --> 00:13:24,363
- Wait till I get my hands on that dirty
double-crosser. - Will you pipe down?
196
00:13:24,436 --> 00:13:26,427
- Double-crossing me...
- Here's your lead. Roxie Hart...
197
00:13:26,505 --> 00:13:28,996
the prettiest woman ever charged
with murder in this county...
198
00:13:29,074 --> 00:13:32,339
has just surrendered
to a representative of the Gazette.
199
00:13:32,411 --> 00:13:35,938
- While the constabulary...
- All you got to do is to sign this.
200
00:13:36,015 --> 00:13:38,677
- The cops are still on the roof.
- Did you hear what he said?
201
00:13:38,751 --> 00:13:40,742
What?
202
00:13:40,820 --> 00:13:45,348
You really think I'm so, uh, pretty,
like you said?
203
00:13:45,424 --> 00:13:47,449
Honey, you are a garden of hollyhocks.
204
00:13:47,526 --> 00:13:51,394
- How old are you, dear?
- Eighteen.
205
00:13:51,463 --> 00:13:54,557
Roxie is 23 and red-headed.
206
00:13:54,633 --> 00:13:57,966
Listen, old boy. Let me get the girl signed
up before those monkeys get back here.
207
00:13:58,037 --> 00:14:00,369
- All right. Hold it, Tommy.
- What's that?
208
00:14:00,439 --> 00:14:03,374
All you got to do, my dear,
is to sign this contract.
209
00:14:05,377 --> 00:14:07,709
What contract?
This is just a blank piece of paper.
210
00:14:07,780 --> 00:14:10,112
- Not even any fine print on it.
- I'll fill that in later.
211
00:14:10,182 --> 00:14:12,207
Cabarets, personal appearance,
everything!
212
00:14:12,284 --> 00:14:15,151
We'll clean up!
Unless, of course, you swing.
213
00:14:15,221 --> 00:14:17,621
What is this...
the insane asylum?
214
00:14:17,690 --> 00:14:21,319
You're beginning to give me the creeps.
215
00:14:21,393 --> 00:14:24,556
You're not gonna swing.
Women don't swing in this county.
216
00:14:24,630 --> 00:14:27,895
And will you stop saying "swing"?
217
00:14:27,967 --> 00:14:30,629
Listen, Roxie.
You are a very lucky girl.
218
00:14:30,703 --> 00:14:33,263
Today you are nobody, and who cares?
219
00:14:33,339 --> 00:14:37,002
Tomorrow money couldn't buy the publicity
you'll have... column after column of it.
220
00:14:37,076 --> 00:14:39,943
Pictures, measurements,
what you eat, what you drink...
221
00:14:40,012 --> 00:14:43,140
how you feel when you get up
in the morning, advice to young girls.
222
00:14:43,215 --> 00:14:45,513
- On the radio.
- Everybody in the country will know you.
223
00:14:45,584 --> 00:14:48,018
They'll fight to see you.
Like when you cross the sidewalk...
224
00:14:48,087 --> 00:14:50,351
from the patrol wagon
to the courtroom door.
225
00:14:50,422 --> 00:14:53,880
They'll want your autograph.
They'll grab your clothes for souvenirs.
226
00:14:53,959 --> 00:14:56,154
They'll wanna kiss you
so they can tell their grandchildren.
227
00:14:56,228 --> 00:14:58,423
A million-dollar production,
and you're the star.
228
00:14:58,497 --> 00:15:01,330
I'm telling you, you'll be right
up there with Peaches Browning...
229
00:15:01,400 --> 00:15:04,164
William Jennings Bryan,
Queen Marie, Ma Ferguson.
230
00:15:04,236 --> 00:15:06,466
- Mutt and Jeff.
- Red Grange, Ruth Snyder...
231
00:15:06,538 --> 00:15:09,268
Aimee Semple McPherson,
Barney Google.
232
00:15:09,341 --> 00:15:11,275
Don't you understand, dear?
233
00:15:11,343 --> 00:15:14,244
This is Chicago,
the city of opportunity.
234
00:15:14,313 --> 00:15:19,580
And that city only awaits
one word from you to be at your feet.
235
00:15:21,520 --> 00:15:23,511
Well, maybe I'm crazy.
236
00:15:24,957 --> 00:15:27,016
- Listen, you...
- Let me out of here, please.
237
00:15:27,092 --> 00:15:29,287
Are you going to throw away
a veritable fortune?
238
00:15:29,361 --> 00:15:31,629
How am I going to spend that fortune
in a cemetery?
239
00:15:31,762 --> 00:15:33,662
You won't have to, I tell ya.
240
00:15:33,731 --> 00:15:37,132
- Who's going to stop it... you?
- Billy Flynn.
241
00:15:37,201 --> 00:15:39,965
- Billy Flynn?
- You mean the great mouthpiece?
242
00:15:40,037 --> 00:15:42,198
Get Billy Flynn,
and you can write your own ticket.
243
00:15:42,272 --> 00:15:45,730
- Yes, and use it.
- The streets of the city are congested with women...
244
00:15:45,809 --> 00:15:48,573
that Billy has saved
from their just desserts.
245
00:15:48,646 --> 00:15:50,807
Well, do you think he'd take me?
246
00:15:50,881 --> 00:15:54,977
Honey, Willy would take an ape-woman
if there was enough publicity in it.
247
00:15:55,052 --> 00:15:57,145
He's good-looking too, isn't he?
248
00:15:57,221 --> 00:16:00,384
Sex appeal rises from him
like a cloud of steam.
249
00:16:00,457 --> 00:16:03,824
- But you don't think there'd be any...
- Honey, I keep telling you...
250
00:16:03,894 --> 00:16:06,761
this county wouldn't hang
Lucrezia Borgia.
251
00:16:06,830 --> 00:16:08,855
I wouldn't want to get in any jam.
252
00:16:08,932 --> 00:16:12,424
It's money from home.
That's the only way to describe it.
253
00:16:12,503 --> 00:16:15,028
You don't think that...
all this you said about my career...
254
00:16:15,105 --> 00:16:17,835
you don't think I could have it
if I was innocent?
255
00:16:17,908 --> 00:16:21,674
- Oh, Roxie, please.
- Oh, Roxie, please, will ya?
256
00:16:21,745 --> 00:16:25,579
Well, then... of course.
257
00:16:25,649 --> 00:16:31,019
Naturally, I want to do everything I can
for my career.
258
00:16:33,123 --> 00:16:35,250
All right, honey.
What's her name? Roxie?
259
00:16:35,492 --> 00:16:37,926
All right, Roxie. Give it to us big.
Give us plenty of teeth.
260
00:16:37,995 --> 00:16:41,761
The old smiling face.
And fine, hold it. Go!
261
00:16:41,832 --> 00:16:44,460
Wonderful! Wonderful!
Now, let's see.
262
00:16:44,535 --> 00:16:47,095
If I'd known this in time,
I'd have got a marcel.
263
00:16:47,171 --> 00:16:50,231
This will be a nifyy, though.
Head up. That's fine.
264
00:16:50,307 --> 00:16:53,242
You got her in focus, boys?
Get the orchid in.
265
00:16:53,310 --> 00:16:55,301
This is wonderful.
Wonderful. Love it.
266
00:16:55,379 --> 00:16:58,542
- Is that her?
- Yeah. Pip, huh?
267
00:16:58,615 --> 00:17:02,051
But she's just a girl... like me.
268
00:17:02,119 --> 00:17:04,110
H... How's that?
269
00:17:04,188 --> 00:17:07,715
I thought she'd be older
and... more sinful-looking.
270
00:17:07,791 --> 00:17:12,091
She's... She's beautiful.
271
00:17:12,162 --> 00:17:14,630
Listen. I don't want any of this
to get in the newspapers.
272
00:17:14,698 --> 00:17:17,292
I want the whole thing
kept perfectly quiet.
273
00:17:17,367 --> 00:17:19,801
Sure, sure. You're too smart a guy.
Step right over here.
274
00:17:19,870 --> 00:17:21,895
Oh, no.
You ain't gonna drag me into this.
275
00:17:21,972 --> 00:17:24,463
You're already drug, you dope.
Stop stalling and get over there.
276
00:17:24,541 --> 00:17:26,941
- We gotta catch the main edition.
- I won't do it!
277
00:17:27,010 --> 00:17:29,342
There you are.
No spirit of cooperation.
278
00:17:29,413 --> 00:17:32,814
Listen. You want people to think you're
a yellow dog and ran out on your wife?
279
00:17:32,883 --> 00:17:36,410
- A low, dirty bum.
- What else is he?
280
00:17:36,487 --> 00:17:39,183
Show the world you're gonna stand by her
through thick and thin.
281
00:17:39,256 --> 00:17:42,783
The old bulldog spirit for the
woman I love. How 'bout it, kid?
282
00:17:42,860 --> 00:17:44,794
Why, with a man like you at her side...
283
00:17:44,862 --> 00:17:46,853
a woman could
fight the whole world... lefty.
284
00:17:46,930 --> 00:17:50,366
- Well, naturally, if I thought...
- Atta boy!
285
00:17:50,434 --> 00:17:53,528
We'll send you a copy to hang in your
den with the rest of your trophies.
286
00:17:53,604 --> 00:17:55,697
- What about the stiff?
- The corpse?
287
00:17:55,773 --> 00:17:58,640
No corpse is gonna pose with me.
Especially that one. Count me out.
288
00:17:58,709 --> 00:18:01,337
Get back, honey.
The stiff is gone.
289
00:18:01,411 --> 00:18:03,777
- It's enough with that.
- We don't need the stiff.
290
00:18:03,847 --> 00:18:06,179
- Hey, Fido. Lay down. Play dead.
- Here?
291
00:18:06,250 --> 00:18:08,377
Yeah.
You, right over here now.
292
00:18:08,452 --> 00:18:10,886
Try and unloosen.
That's fine.
293
00:18:10,954 --> 00:18:14,981
Beautiful. Beautiful.
294
00:18:15,058 --> 00:18:18,221
All right, everybody, big smile.
Beautiful.
295
00:18:18,295 --> 00:18:22,129
- How's this pose? Is this a good one?
- The knees, babe.
296
00:18:22,199 --> 00:18:24,190
How about a profile?
297
00:18:24,268 --> 00:18:27,032
I hate to lose any part of that kisser,
but let me see.
298
00:18:27,104 --> 00:18:29,299
Good.
You're asking his forgiveness.
299
00:18:29,373 --> 00:18:31,705
Who's asking whose forgiveness?
300
00:18:31,775 --> 00:18:34,869
- Look, Roxie. Cooperate.
- The knees, the knees.
301
00:18:34,945 --> 00:18:37,209
I don't know why
I want to get mixed up in this.
302
00:18:37,281 --> 00:18:39,715
You move out of there,
and I'll bat you one, so help me.
303
00:18:39,783 --> 00:18:43,219
I'll give you such a rap...
Roxie, you're begging his forgiveness.
304
00:18:43,287 --> 00:18:46,051
Husband, you're smiling sweetly.
305
00:18:46,123 --> 00:18:48,990
Counselor, look official.
That's it. Hold it, everybody.
306
00:18:49,059 --> 00:18:51,755
The knees, Roxie, the knees!
307
00:18:54,798 --> 00:18:59,201
That's the way it started... small.
But, brother, how it grew.
308
00:18:59,269 --> 00:19:02,261
In one week, Roxie Hart was the
best-known dame in the United States.
309
00:19:02,339 --> 00:19:05,035
Her fame covered this whole country
like the morning dew.
310
00:19:05,108 --> 00:19:07,269
Like the dew.
311
00:19:07,344 --> 00:19:10,245
The prettiest woman ever charged
with murder in the history of Chicago.
312
00:19:10,314 --> 00:19:12,373
Pretty soft, huh?
313
00:19:12,449 --> 00:19:14,440
That's the way it looked, yeah.
314
00:19:14,518 --> 00:19:19,455
Like a setup, a pushover. No risk,
no danger, no chance of a conviction.
315
00:19:19,523 --> 00:19:23,584
That's the way it looked then.
That's what she thought.
316
00:19:23,660 --> 00:19:26,891
Do you seriously think Billy Flynn
is going to waste his time...
317
00:19:26,964 --> 00:19:30,058
on every two-bit scuffle
that gets into the papers?
318
00:19:30,133 --> 00:19:32,727
Two-bit scuffles? Eight pictures
and nine columns in two days.
319
00:19:32,803 --> 00:19:34,794
I guess that ain't the bee's knees.
320
00:19:34,872 --> 00:19:39,070
My dear girl, do you realize
that during my first week here...
321
00:19:39,142 --> 00:19:41,133
I had a total of 15 pictures...
322
00:19:41,211 --> 00:19:45,375
271/2 columns
and an editorial denouncing me?
323
00:19:45,449 --> 00:19:48,976
- You're so awful, it's all I can do to keep my mind on you.
- Children!
324
00:19:49,052 --> 00:19:51,486
To hear you talk,
you'd think you were queen of the jail.
325
00:19:51,555 --> 00:19:54,149
Well, permit me to remind you,
Miss Sloppy...
326
00:19:54,224 --> 00:19:57,625
your whole case
is a very low-class affair...
327
00:19:57,694 --> 00:20:00,288
whereas my friend...
328
00:20:00,364 --> 00:20:03,231
- was in the social register.
- On a pass?
329
00:20:03,300 --> 00:20:08,237
In my opinion, Mrs. Hart, you're a very
ordinary bum, and you might as well face it.
330
00:20:08,305 --> 00:20:10,603
Bum? I'll "bum" you!
331
00:20:18,715 --> 00:20:21,206
Ooh!
332
00:20:29,559 --> 00:20:31,493
Children.
333
00:20:36,199 --> 00:20:39,066
You girls have got
to stop this squabbling.
334
00:20:47,110 --> 00:20:49,169
Let's see.
Where was I?
335
00:20:59,723 --> 00:21:03,989
Altogether, Mr. Benham and I managed
to raise $ 1,400 off the furniture.
336
00:21:04,061 --> 00:21:06,052
Never mind how, just count it out.
337
00:21:06,129 --> 00:21:08,154
Then there's 500 from the savings...
338
00:21:08,231 --> 00:21:11,166
- and 500 from Roxie's life insurance.
- That's 2,400.
339
00:21:11,234 --> 00:21:14,670
Three hundred that I borrowed,
and 700 from the building and loan.
340
00:21:14,738 --> 00:21:17,036
- That's 3,400.
- And that's all.
341
00:21:17,107 --> 00:21:19,132
- All?
- All so far.
342
00:21:19,209 --> 00:21:21,200
I figured I could pay you,
say, 20 a week.
343
00:21:21,278 --> 00:21:23,473
I could give you interest.
Maybe double interest.
344
00:21:23,547 --> 00:21:25,538
Now just a minute, Hart.
When you came to me...
345
00:21:25,615 --> 00:21:27,674
and said,
"Mr. Flynn, will you take this case?"
346
00:21:27,751 --> 00:21:29,946
Did I say,
"Is she innocent or is she guilty?"
347
00:21:30,020 --> 00:21:32,011
No. I said nothing like that.
348
00:21:32,089 --> 00:21:34,319
I simply said, "Have you got $5,000?"
Didn't I?
349
00:21:34,391 --> 00:21:36,484
That's right.
You've been perfectly fair with me.
350
00:21:36,560 --> 00:21:38,585
All right,
then I expect you to be fair with me.
351
00:21:38,662 --> 00:21:40,823
What about her father and mother?
You tried them?
352
00:21:40,897 --> 00:21:42,888
Well, I don't think they got much.
353
00:21:42,966 --> 00:21:45,730
Whatever they've got, they'll give
to save their baby, won't they?
354
00:21:45,802 --> 00:21:48,270
- Well, I don't know.
- You don't know?
355
00:21:48,338 --> 00:21:51,501
Why, Hart, that's the most cold-blooded
thing I've ever heard a man say.
356
00:21:51,575 --> 00:21:55,409
To even question the willingness of a father
and mother to come to the aid of their child...
357
00:21:55,479 --> 00:21:57,913
- flesh of their flesh, bone of their bone.
- I didn't mean...
358
00:21:57,981 --> 00:22:00,006
Where are they?
Get them on the phone right now.
359
00:22:00,083 --> 00:22:02,074
- They live down in the country.
- Call them.
360
00:22:02,152 --> 00:22:05,212
- It's long distance.
- We'll put it on the bill! Call them!
361
00:22:05,288 --> 00:22:08,223
Will you get me
Mr. Magnus J. Wadsworth in Zanesboro?
362
00:22:08,291 --> 00:22:12,523
The best friend any of us can have in this
world may turn against us and become our enemy.
363
00:22:12,596 --> 00:22:16,589
Our son, our daughter that we reared
with loving care may prove ungrateful.
364
00:22:16,666 --> 00:22:18,896
Those we trusted
with our happiness and good name...
365
00:22:18,969 --> 00:22:20,960
may prove traitorous to that faith.
366
00:22:21,038 --> 00:22:24,269
But when all others have fled,
when riches have taken wing...
367
00:22:24,341 --> 00:22:26,366
and reputation fallen to pieces...
368
00:22:26,443 --> 00:22:30,470
there still remains one absolutely
unselfish friend in this selfish world...
369
00:22:30,547 --> 00:22:32,572
one who will never desert us...
370
00:22:32,649 --> 00:22:34,947
one who will never prove ungrateful
nor treacherous.
371
00:22:35,018 --> 00:22:38,579
That's a man's dog, ain't it?
372
00:22:38,655 --> 00:22:41,453
That's right, it is.
I was thinking it was...
373
00:22:41,525 --> 00:22:43,993
Mr. Wadsworth, this is Amos.
374
00:22:44,061 --> 00:22:46,086
Roxie's in some terrible trouble.
375
00:22:46,163 --> 00:22:48,927
What? Yes.
376
00:22:48,999 --> 00:22:51,490
Yes. No.
377
00:22:51,568 --> 00:22:55,504
- And if we don't do something pretty quick...
- Do what?
378
00:22:55,572 --> 00:22:59,167
I said, they're liable to... hang her.
379
00:22:59,242 --> 00:23:01,233
Good!
380
00:23:16,993 --> 00:23:19,461
They're gonna hang Roxie.
381
00:23:19,529 --> 00:23:23,056
What did I tell you?
382
00:23:23,266 --> 00:23:26,861
Let's get this straight, tootsie. I haven't
committed myself on this proposition yet.
383
00:23:26,937 --> 00:23:28,871
Maybe I'll be able to handle it
and maybe not.
384
00:23:28,939 --> 00:23:30,873
It all depends on developments.
385
00:23:30,941 --> 00:23:33,205
But I'm going to give you a few tips
just in case.
386
00:23:33,276 --> 00:23:35,301
Well,
387
00:23:35,378 --> 00:23:39,144
Maybe I shouldn't say this,
but... I didn't do it.
388
00:23:39,216 --> 00:23:41,207
You didn't do it?
389
00:23:41,284 --> 00:23:44,378
Well, then I'm not sure I'm the man
for the job. Now, if you're guilty...
390
00:23:44,454 --> 00:23:47,150
- Please. I'm sorry I mentioned it.
- That's all right.
391
00:23:47,224 --> 00:23:49,283
I'll keep it in mind
in case of emergency...
392
00:23:49,359 --> 00:23:52,453
but for the present,
we'll proceed along the customary lines.
393
00:23:52,529 --> 00:23:56,625
Now, what we gotta do first is to go
after sympathy through the newspapers.
394
00:23:56,700 --> 00:23:59,066
The story of your life
starts tomorrow in the Herald.
395
00:23:59,136 --> 00:24:02,003
- From kindergarten tojail.
- What?
396
00:24:02,072 --> 00:24:04,734
My secretary is writing it this
afternoon, signed with your name.
397
00:24:04,808 --> 00:24:07,072
An authoress!
398
00:24:07,144 --> 00:24:10,841
Beautiful southern home,
every luxury and refinement...
399
00:24:10,914 --> 00:24:14,577
magnolias, colored mammy...
the full treatment.
400
00:24:14,651 --> 00:24:19,179
Educated in private schools, sheltered
like a little flower, and then ruined.
401
00:24:19,256 --> 00:24:21,747
Parents dead, fortune swept away...
402
00:24:21,825 --> 00:24:24,157
a runaway marriage, and heartbreak.
403
00:24:24,227 --> 00:24:27,355
You were a lovely, innocent child,
bewildered by what has happened.
404
00:24:27,430 --> 00:24:30,524
Young, full oflife and lonely...
405
00:24:30,600 --> 00:24:33,364
caught in a mad whirl of a great city!
406
00:24:33,436 --> 00:24:35,734
- Music, lights, wine.
- The black bottom!
407
00:24:35,805 --> 00:24:40,174
Like a moth to the flame.
And now the cold, gray dawn...
408
00:24:40,243 --> 00:24:42,234
mad world ceased...
409
00:24:42,312 --> 00:24:45,008
a butterfly crushed on the wheel.
410
00:24:45,081 --> 00:24:47,276
And what's lefy?
Regret.
411
00:24:47,350 --> 00:24:49,375
That's the important thing...
regret!
412
00:24:49,452 --> 00:24:51,852
You'd give your life this very minute
to bring him back.
413
00:24:51,922 --> 00:24:54,186
Why did I do it?
Was I drunk or crazy?
414
00:24:54,257 --> 00:24:57,590
All you can remember is a fearful
quarrel, and then he threatened you.
415
00:24:57,661 --> 00:24:59,686
- My honor?
- No, no.
416
00:24:59,763 --> 00:25:02,789
We don't fall back on that unless we
have to. He threatened to kill you.
417
00:25:02,866 --> 00:25:05,892
Later, we'll work out why.
You can see him coming toward you now...
418
00:25:05,969 --> 00:25:08,699
with that awful look in his eyes,
a wild look!
419
00:25:08,772 --> 00:25:13,038
And get this... you both grab
for the gun, see? Self-defense.
420
00:25:13,109 --> 00:25:16,135
Whatever we work in later,
that's there from the start.
421
00:25:16,213 --> 00:25:19,205
And everything went purple.
422
00:25:19,282 --> 00:25:21,409
Purple?
423
00:25:21,484 --> 00:25:23,952
Black? White? Red?
424
00:25:24,020 --> 00:25:26,045
Purple's good. It's new.
425
00:25:26,122 --> 00:25:29,114
"As you both grabbed for the gun,
everything went purple. "
426
00:25:29,192 --> 00:25:31,217
- I like that.
- The reporters are downstairs, dear.
427
00:25:31,294 --> 00:25:34,092
- Okay.
- Holy Moses. Haven't you got something else you could wear?
428
00:25:34,164 --> 00:25:36,724
- What's wrong with this?
- For a clip joint, it's great.
429
00:25:36,800 --> 00:25:40,497
But you gotta remember what I said,
you dope... regret, remorse, unhappiness.
430
00:25:40,570 --> 00:25:44,904
No matter what happens, there can never
be any more gaiety or happiness for you.
431
00:25:44,975 --> 00:25:48,502
- You'll never smile again, you understand?
- I got it.
432
00:25:48,578 --> 00:25:52,309
Well, don't forget it.
Birdbrain.
433
00:25:52,382 --> 00:25:54,407
Mrs. Morton, get me that black dress...
434
00:25:54,484 --> 00:25:57,044
the one with the sunflower
on the stomach.
435
00:26:04,594 --> 00:26:07,529
How is she today?
Poor child!
436
00:26:07,597 --> 00:26:10,088
She's holding up magnificently,
poor bewildered kid.
437
00:26:10,166 --> 00:26:12,600
Right now,
she can hardly realize what's happened.
438
00:26:14,337 --> 00:26:17,306
Mr. Callahan,
I've just seen Finnegan, the janitor.
439
00:26:17,374 --> 00:26:19,706
- What janitor?
- At the apartment house.
440
00:26:19,776 --> 00:26:22,438
- And from what he says, she didn't do it.
- Shh!
441
00:26:22,512 --> 00:26:24,503
Are you cr...
Are you nuts?
442
00:26:24,581 --> 00:26:26,708
What are you trying to do,
kill this story?
443
00:26:26,783 --> 00:26:29,343
Listen, you are supposed to
be a newspaperman...
444
00:26:29,419 --> 00:26:31,444
not a detective, you understand?
445
00:26:31,521 --> 00:26:35,651
You are supposed to build up a story,
not tear it down.
446
00:26:35,725 --> 00:26:39,456
Gimme that.
Never scare me like that again.
447
00:26:39,529 --> 00:26:43,056
Gentlemen, Mrs. Hart.
448
00:27:10,260 --> 00:27:14,492
Roxie, dear, this is Mary Sunshine,
the famous feature writer.
449
00:27:16,066 --> 00:27:18,057
And these are
some gentlemen of the press.
450
00:27:18,134 --> 00:27:20,432
- How are you, Mrs. Hart?
- So glad to meet you.
451
00:27:20,503 --> 00:27:23,563
- Boy!
- Oh, you poor child!
452
00:27:23,640 --> 00:27:27,508
Come, sit over here.
We all understand.
453
00:27:27,577 --> 00:27:30,273
I'm going to leave now, Roxie,
so Miss Sunshine and the boys...
454
00:27:30,347 --> 00:27:32,611
can interview you
without being disturbed.
455
00:27:32,682 --> 00:27:35,674
Just answer their questions frankly.
Don't forget what I told you.
456
00:27:35,752 --> 00:27:38,118
Yes, Daddy.
457
00:27:38,188 --> 00:27:41,089
Just a frightened kid, that's all.
Good-bye, Mary.
458
00:27:41,157 --> 00:27:44,092
- Good-bye, boys.
- Bye.
459
00:27:44,160 --> 00:27:46,458
- Good-bye, Jake.
- Good-bye, Willy.
460
00:27:48,932 --> 00:27:51,162
- Excuse me.
- Yes, of course.
461
00:27:54,170 --> 00:27:56,798
- What's that?
- Dinner from the Ritz, madam.
462
00:27:56,873 --> 00:28:01,207
There's two more outside, butjust
from restaurants, no other hotels.
463
00:28:03,947 --> 00:28:07,747
Listen to this...
"My heart and hand are at your feet.
464
00:28:07,817 --> 00:28:10,308
"With you, my life would be complete.
465
00:28:10,387 --> 00:28:13,982
Yours with pleasure,
an unknown admirer. "
466
00:28:14,057 --> 00:28:16,252
Isn't that lovely?
467
00:28:16,326 --> 00:28:18,419
Probably from Lord Byron.
468
00:28:18,495 --> 00:28:20,486
Then why doesn't he sign it?
469
00:28:20,563 --> 00:28:22,588
- But, Mr. Flynn...
- Now wait a minute.
470
00:28:22,665 --> 00:28:25,532
You get the dough,
I'll get you a pass, and not before!
471
00:28:31,708 --> 00:28:33,642
But what kind of a jail is it...
472
00:28:33,710 --> 00:28:38,977
that everybody in the world
can get in to the wife but the husband?
473
00:28:39,048 --> 00:28:42,575
Everybody's been so lovely. I haven't
had to eat this jail slop once.
474
00:28:42,652 --> 00:28:45,246
Just what did happen, Mrs. Hart?
475
00:28:45,321 --> 00:28:49,485
- How's that?
- Tell us in your own words, why?
476
00:28:51,428 --> 00:28:57,196
Well, all I can remember is
a dreadful quarrel, and then a threat.
477
00:28:57,267 --> 00:29:00,327
I can see him coming toward me now
with that awful look in his eye.
478
00:29:00,403 --> 00:29:02,598
A wild look.
479
00:29:02,672 --> 00:29:05,869
Oh, look, alligator pears! Gee, that
fella certainly does give out, does he?
480
00:29:05,942 --> 00:29:09,503
He was bearing down on you
with that wild look...
481
00:29:09,579 --> 00:29:11,604
and then what?
482
00:29:11,681 --> 00:29:14,809
And then we both grabbed for the gun.
483
00:29:14,884 --> 00:29:17,114
And get that straight...
we both grabbed for it.
484
00:29:17,187 --> 00:29:20,315
- And then?
- And then...
485
00:29:20,390 --> 00:29:23,553
- everything went purple.
- Purple?
486
00:29:23,626 --> 00:29:27,392
A purple... flash.
487
00:29:27,464 --> 00:29:29,625
Light or dark?
488
00:29:30,700 --> 00:29:32,133
Pardon?
489
00:29:32,202 --> 00:29:35,228
I say, light purple like lavender...
490
00:29:35,305 --> 00:29:38,433
or dark purple like violet?
491
00:29:42,912 --> 00:29:44,903
Violet.
492
00:29:44,981 --> 00:29:47,006
In other words, self-defense.
493
00:29:47,083 --> 00:29:49,074
You can bet your sweet life it was.
494
00:29:49,152 --> 00:29:53,054
They'll be so glad to know you can eat.
495
00:29:53,122 --> 00:29:56,717
It's choking me, every mouthful,
but I feel it's my duty.
496
00:29:56,793 --> 00:30:00,663
Oh, it is. It is.
You've got to keep up your strength.
497
00:30:00,796 --> 00:30:02,696
I can't sleep at night either.
498
00:30:02,765 --> 00:30:05,734
All night long, I just walk up and down,
tossin' the floor.
499
00:30:05,801 --> 00:30:10,932
You recall nothing specific
during this, uh, purple patch?
500
00:30:11,006 --> 00:30:13,668
- How could I? Must have been mad, insane.
- Oh, dear.
501
00:30:13,742 --> 00:30:16,870
Oh, not for the asylum, understand?
Over with right away.
502
00:30:16,945 --> 00:30:18,936
Sane before and sane after...
503
00:30:19,014 --> 00:30:22,882
with a little teensy-weensy
spot of insanity right in the middle.
504
00:30:22,951 --> 00:30:24,851
- Is that it?
- That's it. Shoot me the jam, Sam.
505
00:30:25,120 --> 00:30:27,782
Is it true, Mrs. Hart,
you were swept off your feet by jazz?
506
00:30:27,856 --> 00:30:30,017
Yeah, what about that black bottom?
507
00:30:30,092 --> 00:30:34,051
- Well...
- You're good at it, ain't ya?
508
00:30:34,129 --> 00:30:36,757
- I ain't had no complaints yet.
- How about a little sample?
509
00:30:36,832 --> 00:30:38,595
- Now?
- Sure. Why not?
510
00:30:38,667 --> 00:30:41,033
- Sure, Roxie. Give, Roxie.
- Be a sport.
511
00:30:41,103 --> 00:30:43,264
Boy!
512
00:30:43,338 --> 00:30:46,068
Aw, you're really the nuttiest guy
I ever saw.
513
00:30:46,141 --> 00:30:48,132
Why don't you, Mrs. Hart.
514
00:30:48,210 --> 00:30:51,646
It might take your thoughts
off your tragedy. Do a few steps for us.
515
00:30:51,714 --> 00:30:55,775
You don't think
it might be what you call out of place?
516
00:30:55,851 --> 00:31:00,254
Certainly not.
You think we'd ask you if it would be?
517
00:31:00,322 --> 00:31:02,381
Well.
518
00:31:06,495 --> 00:31:08,986
I don't know if I ought.
519
00:31:52,608 --> 00:31:55,008
Get away! Get away!
Go on, scat!
520
00:31:55,077 --> 00:31:57,136
Who wants to see pictures of you,
anyway?
521
00:31:57,212 --> 00:32:00,943
- I'm the husband, ain't I?
- I don't believe it.
522
00:32:03,886 --> 00:32:07,845
Well, hush my big black mouth!
523
00:32:42,291 --> 00:32:44,885
Mrs. Hart,
I think you're just wonderful.
524
00:32:44,960 --> 00:32:47,485
- What?
- I know you didn't do it. I just know it.
525
00:32:47,563 --> 00:32:49,554
You're a sweetie pie to say that...
526
00:32:49,631 --> 00:32:52,395
but if you print it,
I'll wrap a chair around your neck.
527
00:33:07,182 --> 00:33:10,083
Kind of liked her, huh?
528
00:33:10,152 --> 00:33:12,780
"Kind of liked her"?
That's putting it feebly.
529
00:33:14,156 --> 00:33:16,181
I couldn't sleep for thinking about her.
530
00:33:16,258 --> 00:33:18,749
Go on.
I wanna hear some more.
531
00:33:26,368 --> 00:33:28,962
Oil for the lamps of China, gentlemen.
532
00:33:34,142 --> 00:33:36,133
A month later.
533
00:33:50,492 --> 00:33:56,192
Chicago, Chicago
That toddlin'town
534
00:34:02,137 --> 00:34:04,128
- Are you going to behave?
- Let go, you!
535
00:34:04,206 --> 00:34:06,231
- Are you?
- Let go, I tell you!
536
00:34:06,308 --> 00:34:08,503
- Are you?
- Yeah! Let go of my hair.
537
00:34:08,577 --> 00:34:10,602
If I find you biting anyone else
around here...
538
00:34:10,679 --> 00:34:13,705
I'll have the dentist
pull every tooth in your head!
539
00:34:22,557 --> 00:34:25,048
Got a butt, buddy?
540
00:34:38,707 --> 00:34:43,974
Won't you tell us just how you happened
to take up banditry, Miss Baxter?
541
00:34:44,046 --> 00:34:46,537
Did you suffer an inferiority complex?
542
00:34:46,615 --> 00:34:48,708
Hello, Miss Sunshine.
543
00:34:48,784 --> 00:34:52,276
Later, Mrs. Hart.
Or would you describe yourself...
544
00:34:52,354 --> 00:34:55,187
as a thrill slayer?
545
00:34:55,257 --> 00:34:58,693
Mr. Callahan.
I got a scoop for you.
546
00:34:58,760 --> 00:35:01,490
I'm thinking of going
on a hunger strike.
547
00:35:01,563 --> 00:35:04,293
Okay, kid. Happy hiccups.
What about the guy who was with you?
548
00:35:04,366 --> 00:35:06,960
They got him outside.
Maybe you'd like to take a peek at him.
549
00:35:07,035 --> 00:35:09,435
Do you want to come?
550
00:35:16,211 --> 00:35:18,202
Roxie.
551
00:35:18,280 --> 00:35:20,874
I'm awfully worried, Roxie.
552
00:35:20,949 --> 00:35:23,247
You're worried?
Listen.
553
00:35:23,318 --> 00:35:26,310
My lawyer goes out of town
on a vacation.
554
00:35:26,388 --> 00:35:28,652
My agent, whenever you want him,
you can't find him.
555
00:35:28,724 --> 00:35:31,352
In 10 days, only one little
scoop of a story and no pictures.
556
00:35:31,426 --> 00:35:34,327
And now this.
You can figure for yourself how I feel.
557
00:35:34,396 --> 00:35:36,293
It's not that. Did you see that
editorial in theLedgerthis morning?
558
00:35:36,328 --> 00:35:38,190
It's not that. Did you see that
editorial in theLedgerthis morning?
559
00:35:38,266 --> 00:35:40,257
About me?
560
00:35:40,335 --> 00:35:43,600
It said, "Why is it that men could be
hanged in this county but not women?"
561
00:35:43,672 --> 00:35:46,436
It was called:
"We demand equal rights for women. "
562
00:35:46,508 --> 00:35:49,773
- Say! That's swell.
- Roxie, please, this is serious.
563
00:35:49,845 --> 00:35:52,871
This case isn't going to be like the
others. Everybody's getting sore...
564
00:35:52,948 --> 00:35:55,849
the mayor, the newspapers,
the preachers, women's clubs, everybody.
565
00:35:55,917 --> 00:35:59,444
- It never was like that before.
- You're sweet.
566
00:36:01,490 --> 00:36:05,859
Don't you understand? They're gonna
try to make you pay the penalty.
567
00:36:07,929 --> 00:36:12,957
I never thought of anybody
really worrying about me before.
568
00:36:13,035 --> 00:36:17,165
If anything happened to you, Roxie,
I don't know what I'd do.
569
00:36:26,515 --> 00:36:28,745
How old are you?
570
00:36:28,817 --> 00:36:32,548
- Twenty-five.
- Well.
571
00:36:40,228 --> 00:36:43,561
Listen, sweetie pie,
I'll tell you a secret.
572
00:36:43,632 --> 00:36:47,227
Any old time the going gets too tough, all
I have to do is say one word and I'm out.
573
00:36:47,302 --> 00:36:50,100
Just one word. That's all.
So you needn't worry.
574
00:36:50,172 --> 00:36:53,232
I'm so happy.
Is there anything I can do for you?
575
00:36:53,308 --> 00:36:56,436
Yeah, go find that Benham, that agent
guy, and tell him I want some action.
576
00:36:56,511 --> 00:36:59,241
- Right away.
- A proposition like this, you gotta keep it boiling.
577
00:36:59,314 --> 00:37:02,442
Something new all the time. When you
got your whole future tied up in it...
578
00:37:02,517 --> 00:37:06,476
you gotta grab it by the horn
and hit it while it's hot.
579
00:37:06,555 --> 00:37:09,649
Hit it while it's hot,
grab it by the horn.
580
00:37:09,724 --> 00:37:12,056
# Hit it while it's hot
Grab it by the horn #
581
00:37:12,127 --> 00:37:14,118
# Hit it while it's hot #
582
00:38:10,485 --> 00:38:13,318
Well, sir, if you thought
Roxie got a build-up...
583
00:38:13,388 --> 00:38:15,379
you should have seen Two-gun Gertie's.
584
00:38:15,457 --> 00:38:18,017
Things moved fast in those days.
Almost before you knew it...
585
00:38:18,093 --> 00:38:20,687
J. Edgar Hoover couldn't have
found Roxie's name in the papers.
586
00:38:20,762 --> 00:38:24,254
Two-gun Gertie, Two-gun Gertie...
that's all the papers could think about.
587
00:38:24,332 --> 00:38:28,029
But, gentlemen, class will always tell.
588
00:38:28,103 --> 00:38:30,936
Roxie, crushed to earth,
will always rise again.
589
00:38:31,006 --> 00:38:34,840
Just when the hour was darkest, when obscurity
seemed to have settled down permanently...
590
00:38:34,910 --> 00:38:38,402
over that brave little jailbird,
up she zoomed again like a rocket.
591
00:38:38,480 --> 00:38:40,414
Like a rocket.
592
00:38:40,482 --> 00:38:42,712
Back to page one
in every sheet in town.
593
00:38:42,784 --> 00:38:46,049
With one little twist of the wrist,
one simple girlish idea...
594
00:38:46,121 --> 00:38:48,589
the queen of them all
once more resumed her throne.
595
00:38:48,657 --> 00:38:53,390
Rock-a-bye, baby
on the treetop
596
00:38:53,461 --> 00:38:57,363
Chicago, Chicago
That toddlin'town, toddlin'town
597
00:38:57,432 --> 00:39:02,301
When the wind blows
the cradle will rock
598
00:39:02,370 --> 00:39:04,429
Chicago, Chicago
599
00:39:04,506 --> 00:39:08,636
When the bough breaks
the cradle will fall
600
00:39:08,710 --> 00:39:10,735
Chicago, that toddlin'town
601
00:39:10,812 --> 00:39:15,977
And down will come baby
cradle and all
602
00:39:16,051 --> 00:39:18,349
Chicago
603
00:39:20,155 --> 00:39:22,623
Slowly, my dear.
Slowly.
604
00:39:22,691 --> 00:39:24,716
Yes, Daddy.
605
00:39:24,793 --> 00:39:27,694
- Perhaps you better call me something else.
- Yes, Daddy.
606
00:39:34,903 --> 00:39:36,894
Boy!
607
00:39:47,048 --> 00:39:50,882
Oh, you poor dear child.
608
00:39:58,059 --> 00:40:00,653
Thank you.
Thank you so much.
609
00:40:00,729 --> 00:40:03,755
I'm such a bother these days.
610
00:40:05,734 --> 00:40:09,261
- Comfortable, my dear?
- Yes, Dad... dear Mr. Flynn.
611
00:40:09,337 --> 00:40:11,805
Game little woman.
I've never seen anything like it.
612
00:40:11,873 --> 00:40:14,842
Isn't it gorgeous?
Aren't you glad?
613
00:40:14,909 --> 00:40:17,776
Glad? Glad?
614
00:40:17,846 --> 00:40:20,940
To have your child born here?
615
00:40:21,016 --> 00:40:23,382
Now, now, dear, you promised me
not to get upset again.
616
00:40:23,451 --> 00:40:26,352
Oh, what a story!
What a tragedy!
617
00:40:26,421 --> 00:40:28,981
When is it to be, dear?
618
00:40:29,057 --> 00:40:31,048
Oh.
619
00:40:38,266 --> 00:40:42,635
Not till summer. June.
620
00:40:42,704 --> 00:40:47,539
Harrison's trying to postpone the trial,
you know, till after election.
621
00:40:47,609 --> 00:40:50,237
For myself, it don't matter,
but for the little one...
622
00:40:50,312 --> 00:40:53,611
Fat lot Harrison cares about that.
623
00:40:54,816 --> 00:40:56,841
Hello, Mr. Callahan.
624
00:40:56,918 --> 00:40:59,318
We'll make him care.
I'll see to that.
625
00:40:59,387 --> 00:41:02,982
I'll call every woman's club in the city,
every mothers' and teachers' association.
626
00:41:03,058 --> 00:41:05,356
- Oh, Mr. Callahan,
- Hmm?
627
00:41:05,427 --> 00:41:09,056
I think Miss Baxter's
trying to attract your attention.
628
00:41:09,130 --> 00:41:13,191
We'll start a petition, get thousands
and thousands and thousands of names.
629
00:41:13,268 --> 00:41:15,532
- Swell! Great idea!
- Boy!
630
00:41:15,603 --> 00:41:19,266
Demanding that bail be granted so an innocent
babe can be born in God's great outdoors.
631
00:41:19,341 --> 00:41:21,366
You mean in the woods?
632
00:41:21,443 --> 00:41:23,741
- No, not bail, for immediate trial.
- Oh, swell, Mary.
633
00:41:23,812 --> 00:41:28,715
- Jake, I think Miss Baxter wishes to speak with you.
- Yeah.
634
00:41:28,783 --> 00:41:33,277
- She probably has a scoop for you.
- Hiya, Gertie.
635
00:41:33,355 --> 00:41:35,949
- Just a minute.
Who's that dame! Scram, sister!
636
00:41:36,024 --> 00:41:38,390
Upstairs, Gertie.
This is private.
637
00:41:38,460 --> 00:41:40,485
Scat!
638
00:41:43,164 --> 00:41:47,567
Ahh, poor Miss Baxter.
She seems to live such a lonely life.
639
00:41:47,635 --> 00:41:49,796
I've got it!
Oh, I've got it!
640
00:41:49,871 --> 00:41:52,533
- Yeah?
- We'll demand that the trial start on Mother's Day.
641
00:41:52,607 --> 00:41:55,075
- Wonderful, Mary!
- Swell idea.
642
00:41:55,143 --> 00:41:58,909
But I'm the father.
Don't you understand? I'm the father!
643
00:41:58,980 --> 00:42:01,915
Ain't there any room at all
for the father?
644
00:42:01,983 --> 00:42:05,384
How many people did the state charge
with the shooting of Casely? One.
645
00:42:05,453 --> 00:42:07,921
How many did the grand jury indict?
One.
646
00:42:07,989 --> 00:42:10,651
How many are named in the charge?
One.
647
00:42:10,725 --> 00:42:12,750
Then how can the state try two?
648
00:42:12,827 --> 00:42:14,818
That's a mighty pretty question,
Counselor.
649
00:42:14,896 --> 00:42:16,921
Yeah.
Don't you worry, my dear.
650
00:42:16,998 --> 00:42:19,728
The American public will fight
to the death for you and your wee one.
651
00:42:19,801 --> 00:42:22,133
But will we beat the rap?
That's the rancid test.
652
00:42:22,203 --> 00:42:25,400
Every true woman in the country
will be with you spiritually, Mrs. Hart.
653
00:42:25,473 --> 00:42:28,306
Motherhood itself will be at stake.
654
00:42:28,376 --> 00:42:31,243
You've been so kind, Miss Sunshine.
655
00:42:31,312 --> 00:42:34,804
If it's a girl,
I'd like to name it after you.
656
00:42:34,883 --> 00:42:38,944
Oh, you darling!
Oh, that is just too sweet.
657
00:42:39,020 --> 00:42:42,012
And if it's a boy, after you, Jake.
658
00:42:42,090 --> 00:42:44,115
No, not me, honey.
659
00:42:44,192 --> 00:42:46,854
Thanks just the same.
You slip it to Billy here.
660
00:42:46,928 --> 00:42:49,453
Well, I appreciate the honor,
naturally...
661
00:42:49,531 --> 00:42:52,830
but I happen to be married, and happily,
and would like to remain so.
662
00:42:52,901 --> 00:42:55,301
Mr. Flynn,
Mr. Hart's outside making quite a fuss.
663
00:42:55,370 --> 00:42:57,497
- He's got a crust.
- He wants to make it up with her.
664
00:42:57,572 --> 00:43:00,769
Over my dead body! He turned on her,
and he's gotta stay turned on her.
665
00:43:00,842 --> 00:43:03,868
He can't switch back and forth
like that. I'll never get a defense set.
666
00:43:03,945 --> 00:43:06,436
- Shall I tell them to throw him out?
- No, I'll see him.
667
00:43:06,514 --> 00:43:08,539
We can't allow him
to have any sympathy at all.
668
00:43:08,616 --> 00:43:10,607
He's got to be the heavy throughout.
669
00:43:10,685 --> 00:43:12,676
I'll have to get him to divorce you.
670
00:43:12,754 --> 00:43:14,779
If you don't lay off me, so help me...
671
00:43:14,856 --> 00:43:16,847
I just want to give you a cigar,
that's all.
672
00:43:16,925 --> 00:43:19,689
- From you, I wouldn't take Clara Bow.
- Be with you in a minute.
673
00:43:19,761 --> 00:43:23,162
- Take your time.
- Mr. Flynn, the cigars are on me this time.
674
00:43:23,231 --> 00:43:25,222
Well, Hart, I congratulate you.
675
00:43:25,300 --> 00:43:28,565
- Thanks, old man.
- That's the way to take it. Be a good sport about it.
676
00:43:28,636 --> 00:43:31,537
- Came as quite a surprise too, you know.
- What does that matter?
677
00:43:31,606 --> 00:43:35,736
The whole affair was obviously somewhat
awkward. You're a man of the word, aren't you?
678
00:43:35,810 --> 00:43:38,574
Yes, but what do you mean,
"Be a good sport"?
679
00:43:38,646 --> 00:43:41,638
Exactly.
Now, I'm a bit older than you are, Hart.
680
00:43:41,716 --> 00:43:43,707
Sit down.
681
00:43:43,785 --> 00:43:45,810
I've seen such situations
arise before...
682
00:43:45,887 --> 00:43:48,014
and the only way
to take them is philosophically.
683
00:43:48,089 --> 00:43:50,080
- Just laugh it off, that's all.
- Laugh?
684
00:43:50,158 --> 00:43:52,718
Yes. No matter what they say to you,
just laugh at them.
685
00:43:52,794 --> 00:43:56,093
Laugh, and the world laughs with you.
686
00:43:56,164 --> 00:43:58,758
Weep, and you look like a chump.
687
00:43:58,833 --> 00:44:01,529
Maybe I better hold on to this
for a little while yet.
688
00:44:01,603 --> 00:44:04,663
- What's the matter?
- Maybe I ain't as big a chump as I look.
689
00:44:04,739 --> 00:44:07,207
- Hart, you're not going to be a cad.
- Who says I ain't?
690
00:44:07,275 --> 00:44:10,733
- Nobody can't make a fool out of me, you know.
- You amaze me.
691
00:44:10,812 --> 00:44:12,837
You talk as if you were
going to divorce her.
692
00:44:12,914 --> 00:44:15,576
- And maybe that ain't all.
- What do you mean?
693
00:44:15,650 --> 00:44:18,414
You think you're so smart,
the both of you.
694
00:44:18,486 --> 00:44:21,580
I know what you're figuring! You're
figuring if the going gets too tough...
695
00:44:21,656 --> 00:44:24,921
you're gonna call in Finnegan,
and he'll clear her and hang it on me.
696
00:44:24,993 --> 00:44:27,359
Well, you ain't.
And you know why you ain't?
697
00:44:27,428 --> 00:44:29,919
Because Finnegan is dead. Yeah!
698
00:44:29,998 --> 00:44:32,523
Last week.
He had another stroke, and he's dead!
699
00:44:32,600 --> 00:44:34,932
- Finnegan? Who is Finnegan?
- Not is, was.
700
00:44:35,003 --> 00:44:37,369
Who was Finnegan?
Just tell her that, Mr. Wise Guy...
701
00:44:37,438 --> 00:44:39,702
and see what she says.
702
00:44:39,774 --> 00:44:44,268
He's dead. Finnegan is dead!
703
00:44:50,952 --> 00:44:53,716
Is that the way
them big-shot lawyers go at a case?
704
00:44:53,788 --> 00:44:56,484
That's the way
Mr. Billy Flynn went at one.
705
00:44:56,558 --> 00:44:58,958
You'd think
they'd throw him out of the courts.
706
00:44:59,027 --> 00:45:01,723
They did.
Skullduggery in the first degree.
707
00:45:01,796 --> 00:45:03,821
All right, go on, Homer.
708
00:45:03,898 --> 00:45:06,867
I wanna hear
what you've got to say about the trial.
709
00:45:10,705 --> 00:45:15,142
The day of the big game
dawned crisp and clear.
710
00:45:15,209 --> 00:45:17,734
This account of the Roxie Hart trial,
ladies and gentlemen...
711
00:45:17,812 --> 00:45:20,144
comes to you through the courtesy
of Dr. Habakuk Twist...
712
00:45:20,214 --> 00:45:22,682
president and founder
of the Twist Health Institute...
713
00:45:22,750 --> 00:45:25,310
who guarantees to cure you
of cancer, dropsy, gout...
714
00:45:25,386 --> 00:45:28,822
Bright's disease, lumbago, rheumatism,
or sleeping sickness...
715
00:45:28,890 --> 00:45:32,519
or any combination of such diseases
in five days by mail.
716
00:45:32,594 --> 00:45:34,653
Your play-by-play announcer
for the trial...
717
00:45:34,729 --> 00:45:37,755
will be that veteran crime expert
of the Daily Gazette, Mr. Jake Callahan.
718
00:45:37,832 --> 00:45:39,900
Take it away, Jake Callahan.
719
00:45:40,033 --> 00:45:43,628
Now, uh, at that point, you weep.
720
00:45:43,703 --> 00:45:46,501
- I just wept.
- Well, then weep again...
721
00:45:46,573 --> 00:45:49,041
and every other time I say so!
722
00:45:49,109 --> 00:45:54,741
I may not know much law, but I do
know juries, and that's all we need.
723
00:45:57,083 --> 00:45:59,108
Where was I?
724
00:45:59,185 --> 00:46:01,676
Mmm.
My innocent unborn babe.
725
00:46:01,755 --> 00:46:05,953
Yeah. On that,
you throw your head back... nobly.
726
00:46:09,296 --> 00:46:12,231
Good. But don't look at the jury
on that. Just forget 'em.
727
00:46:12,299 --> 00:46:14,859
Seek the eyes of your husband.
728
00:46:14,935 --> 00:46:18,166
He has divorced me and cast me aside...
729
00:46:18,238 --> 00:46:21,071
but he is still the father of my child.
730
00:46:21,141 --> 00:46:24,201
- "And the man I really love. "
- And the man I really love.
731
00:46:24,277 --> 00:46:27,508
- You don't have to go down to the floor!
- You said slump, didn't you?
732
00:46:27,580 --> 00:46:30,048
But gently, delicately, like a lady.
733
00:46:30,116 --> 00:46:33,574
You were going on like a sea lion.
734
00:46:33,653 --> 00:46:36,645
- Now, the cross-examination. - He
better watch his step, that Harrison.
735
00:46:36,723 --> 00:46:39,317
- If he starts calling me names, I'll crown him.
- Just cry!
736
00:46:39,392 --> 00:46:43,988
Now listen. No matter what he says
or how mad he gets, you shrink.
737
00:46:44,064 --> 00:46:46,191
Shrink!
738
00:46:46,266 --> 00:46:48,427
And cower.
739
00:46:49,803 --> 00:46:51,930
And cry...
740
00:46:52,005 --> 00:46:54,496
with a little flutter.
741
00:46:56,943 --> 00:46:59,605
Until the jury wants to rise up
and tear him limb from limb!
742
00:46:59,679 --> 00:47:04,981
And never forget... always you're
frightened and helpless and demure.
743
00:47:06,653 --> 00:47:09,121
Demure, I said.
744
00:47:09,189 --> 00:47:11,384
Don't you know what demure means?
745
00:47:11,458 --> 00:47:14,427
- Certainly.
- What?
746
00:47:16,162 --> 00:47:19,723
- What?
- Demure means shy...
747
00:47:19,799 --> 00:47:23,860
timid, modest.
748
00:47:23,937 --> 00:47:25,928
Oh.
749
00:47:27,340 --> 00:47:29,467
His Honor's here, Counselor.
750
00:47:32,178 --> 00:47:35,306
- Now, don't get excited.
- I'm not excited.
751
00:47:36,516 --> 00:47:39,246
Let me look at you.
Turn around.
752
00:47:39,319 --> 00:47:42,117
Here are your flowers.
Now take it easy.
753
00:47:46,226 --> 00:47:49,127
And now, folks, it looks like...
Yes, it is, here she comes now...
754
00:47:49,195 --> 00:47:52,289
Roxie Hart,
that game little sharpshooter.
755
00:47:52,365 --> 00:47:54,993
- Boy!
- Roxie, let's see your kisser.
756
00:47:55,068 --> 00:47:57,559
Hey, Bill, what's with the geraniums?
757
00:47:59,305 --> 00:48:02,331
Okay, here we go.
Open... flash!
758
00:48:02,409 --> 00:48:04,434
That done it.
759
00:48:04,511 --> 00:48:07,139
Darling, we're all for you.
You've got to come through.
760
00:48:07,213 --> 00:48:09,408
Listen. This dame is alone, deserted,
forsaken and forlorn.
761
00:48:09,482 --> 00:48:11,746
Cut out this foolishness
till she's free.
762
00:48:11,818 --> 00:48:15,345
All right, Bill.
Hold it. Open. Flash!
763
00:48:15,422 --> 00:48:18,186
Roxie, will you say a word or two
to America?
764
00:48:18,258 --> 00:48:20,783
Hello, America.
Hello, Ma.
765
00:48:20,860 --> 00:48:23,920
Mrs. Hart and I have nothing to say
except that win or lose...
766
00:48:23,997 --> 00:48:26,488
we expect to play the game
fair and square...
767
00:48:26,566 --> 00:48:29,933
and let the court decide
on the plain, unvarnished facts.
768
00:48:30,003 --> 00:48:32,301
- That's fine.
- That, ladies and gentlemen...
769
00:48:32,372 --> 00:48:36,365
was Roxie Hart and Billy Flynn,
her simple, barefoot mouthpiece.
770
00:48:36,443 --> 00:48:38,741
And now here comes Judge Canton.
771
00:48:42,582 --> 00:48:46,450
Look here. Hold it. Open. Flash!
772
00:48:51,224 --> 00:48:53,988
The honorable court is in session.
773
00:48:54,060 --> 00:48:57,860
Now, folks, the preliminaries are over,
and we have a jury...
774
00:48:57,931 --> 00:49:02,231
a blue-ribbon jury, men of property,
brokers or better...
775
00:49:02,302 --> 00:49:05,703
and they haven't had their eyes
off Roxie since they sat down.
776
00:49:16,649 --> 00:49:21,211
Bang, bang, bang, bang, bang.
No, sir, I didn't do it.
777
00:49:21,287 --> 00:49:24,882
Amos Hart, take the stand.
778
00:49:33,566 --> 00:49:35,830
Let's take a shot of this.
Hold it still a minute. Hold it.
779
00:49:35,902 --> 00:49:38,837
Okay. Hold it.
Open. Flash.
780
00:49:38,905 --> 00:49:41,965
That did it.
All right, fellas. Break it up.
781
00:49:45,578 --> 00:49:48,775
Do you swear the testimony you're about to
give is the truth and nothing but the truth?
782
00:49:48,848 --> 00:49:50,839
I do.
783
00:50:06,032 --> 00:50:09,763
Will Your Honor kindly request the jury
to give some small attention...
784
00:50:09,836 --> 00:50:11,861
to the witness during this testimony?
785
00:50:11,938 --> 00:50:14,532
I, uh... Certainly, certainly.
786
00:50:14,607 --> 00:50:18,338
Pay attention to the witness, gentlemen.
787
00:50:21,014 --> 00:50:23,073
- What's your name?
- Amos Hart.
788
00:50:23,149 --> 00:50:25,583
What is your relationship
to the defendant, Roxie Hart?
789
00:50:25,652 --> 00:50:27,643
She used to be my wife.
790
00:50:27,720 --> 00:50:30,484
Mr. Hart, will you tell the court,
in your own words...
791
00:50:30,557 --> 00:50:35,654
what, if anything, happened in the
apartment occupied by you and your ex-wife...
792
00:50:35,728 --> 00:50:38,288
- on the evening of September 5?
- Well, sir...
793
00:50:38,364 --> 00:50:40,992
on the evening of September 5,
I arrived at my home...
794
00:50:41,067 --> 00:50:44,935
1442 South Melrose, apartment six,
from the poolroom where I hang out...
795
00:50:45,004 --> 00:50:49,907
at 1726 South Hoffman Boulevard
at 7:17 p. m.
796
00:50:49,976 --> 00:50:52,240
And what did you find, Mr. Hart?
797
00:50:52,312 --> 00:50:54,906
I found Mrs. Hart shooting a man.
798
00:50:54,981 --> 00:50:57,916
Hold it! Hold it! Nice, big smile.
799
00:50:57,984 --> 00:51:00,646
All right. That's good.
Everybody, all right, hold it.
800
00:51:00,720 --> 00:51:03,814
Open. Flash! That did it!
801
00:51:03,890 --> 00:51:06,120
All right. Break it up, fellas.
802
00:51:06,192 --> 00:51:08,524
Why don't you sit down right now...
803
00:51:08,595 --> 00:51:11,120
and write a nice, long letter
to Dr. Habakuk Twist...
804
00:51:11,197 --> 00:51:14,257
and tell him about your gallstones.
805
00:51:14,334 --> 00:51:16,325
Tell us the details, Mr. Hart.
806
00:51:16,402 --> 00:51:19,371
Well, sir, I come up the stairs,
and blam!
807
00:51:19,439 --> 00:51:21,464
I heard this pistol shot
in my apartment.
808
00:51:21,541 --> 00:51:25,204
So, I bust in and there she was,
banging away at this Casely fella.
809
00:51:25,278 --> 00:51:27,838
Bang, bang, bang, bang!
810
00:51:27,914 --> 00:51:30,007
- Bang?
- No, sir.
811
00:51:30,083 --> 00:51:33,780
Just four bangs and the one I heard
on the stairs. Five bangs altogether.
812
00:51:33,853 --> 00:51:36,151
Well, how do you like that?
813
00:51:36,222 --> 00:51:38,349
Did she speak?
Was she saying anything?
814
00:51:38,424 --> 00:51:42,952
Yes, sir. She kept saying,
"Take that, you cur, and that and that!"
815
00:51:43,029 --> 00:51:45,964
Can you beat it?
I never said "cur" in my life.
816
00:51:46,032 --> 00:51:48,500
Your Honor,
I protest against these interruptions.
817
00:51:48,568 --> 00:51:53,733
The defendant will keep quiet, please.
818
00:51:55,475 --> 00:51:58,308
- Did you say anything?
- Yes, sir.
819
00:51:58,378 --> 00:52:02,474
I said, "Roxie, you ought not
to be shooting that man like that. "
820
00:52:02,548 --> 00:52:05,016
- In other words, you protested.
- Yes, sir.
821
00:52:05,084 --> 00:52:07,917
- And that was about what time?
- 7:19.
822
00:52:07,987 --> 00:52:10,353
7:20, wasn't it?
823
00:52:10,423 --> 00:52:12,414
He said 7:19.
824
00:52:12,492 --> 00:52:15,552
I must insist, Your Honor,
that counsel for the defense...
825
00:52:15,628 --> 00:52:18,688
I am as insistent, Your Honor, that
this witness give a good performance.
826
00:52:18,765 --> 00:52:21,427
- Gentlemen! Gentlemen!
- I resent that implication.
827
00:52:21,501 --> 00:52:23,901
- If the witness needs more rehearsal...
- Take that back!
828
00:52:23,970 --> 00:52:26,404
Gentlemen, gentlemen!
829
00:52:27,740 --> 00:52:29,970
Your witness.
830
00:52:42,155 --> 00:52:46,216
- When did you file suit for divorce, Mr. Hart?
- October the 15th.
831
00:52:46,292 --> 00:52:49,420
Was there any particular reason
for your filing suit on this exact date?
832
00:52:49,495 --> 00:52:53,022
Well, sir, the papers
came out with a story that...
833
00:52:53,099 --> 00:52:55,192
well, a statement that...
834
00:52:55,268 --> 00:52:57,736
well, there was going
to be a little stranger.
835
00:52:57,804 --> 00:53:00,739
Mr. Hart, is this grounds for divorce?
836
00:53:00,807 --> 00:53:03,241
A little too much of a stranger.
837
00:53:03,309 --> 00:53:07,211
- But they couldn't put anything over on you.
- I'll say they couldn't.
838
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:11,273
Had your wife apprised you ofher
condition prior to said statement?
839
00:53:11,351 --> 00:53:14,878
- How's that?
- Had your wife told you of this...
840
00:53:14,954 --> 00:53:18,890
- this stranger?
- No, sir. Neither one of them.
841
00:53:22,795 --> 00:53:27,391
Now tell us, Mr. Hart, do you expect
this jury to believe that...
842
00:53:27,467 --> 00:53:29,799
with all due respect to the press...
843
00:53:29,869 --> 00:53:33,669
that our courts would grant you
a divorce merely on a newspaper story?
844
00:53:33,740 --> 00:53:37,073
No, sir. I had a statement
that she'd made and signed herself.
845
00:53:37,143 --> 00:53:39,737
- All about her and this...
- Where did you get the statement?
846
00:53:39,812 --> 00:53:42,474
- From him.
- I protest, Your Honor!
847
00:53:42,548 --> 00:53:45,278
So, the state prosecutor...
848
00:53:45,351 --> 00:53:48,343
gave you a statement
that enabled you to cast aside...
849
00:53:48,421 --> 00:53:52,687
the woman that you had sworn to love
and cherish for better or worse.
850
00:53:52,759 --> 00:53:55,956
And what, Mr. Hart, did you give
the state prosecutor in return?
851
00:53:56,028 --> 00:53:59,691
This is too much!
I resent these infamous allegations!
852
00:53:59,766 --> 00:54:01,791
- A deal was made!
- Take that back!
853
00:54:01,868 --> 00:54:06,202
I repeat, a thieves' bargain was made.
A forged statement!
854
00:54:06,272 --> 00:54:09,298
In exchange
for this man's lying testimony!
855
00:54:09,375 --> 00:54:12,310
Why, you cheap
double-crossing shyster!
856
00:54:12,378 --> 00:54:14,676
No man can call me that and live!
857
00:54:14,747 --> 00:54:18,774
Come on, Mike.
858
00:54:24,257 --> 00:54:27,192
Hold it! Hold it!
859
00:54:27,260 --> 00:54:30,923
Hold it! Open. Flash!
That did it. Break it up, fellas.
860
00:54:57,223 --> 00:55:01,057
Listen, Mr. Flynn. A photo finish
may be good enough for you...
861
00:55:01,127 --> 00:55:03,721
but for me, anything less
than eight lengths is too close!
862
00:55:03,796 --> 00:55:05,889
That's a hanging district attorney
out there.
863
00:55:05,965 --> 00:55:08,695
I tell you, there is no occasion
whatever for alarm.
864
00:55:08,768 --> 00:55:12,169
All we need is one juror, and already
I've got that number-one guy...
865
00:55:12,238 --> 00:55:14,866
that big Irish foreman,
right there.
866
00:55:14,941 --> 00:55:17,933
The worst we can get is a hung jury.
867
00:55:18,010 --> 00:55:20,308
Or a hung Roxie.
868
00:55:21,914 --> 00:55:24,041
That's not good enough.
I've been doing exactly...
869
00:55:24,116 --> 00:55:26,414
whatJake and that agent said...
let you carry the ball.
870
00:55:26,486 --> 00:55:28,716
But I don't like that D.A.
I'm scared of him.
871
00:55:28,788 --> 00:55:31,052
Oh, listen, listen.
Give me time, will you?
872
00:55:31,123 --> 00:55:34,217
Listen, Mr. Flynn. The way I'm
beginning to feel about my neck...
873
00:55:34,293 --> 00:55:37,694
I want you to get a fella in here by
the name of Finnegan... Michael Finnegan.
874
00:55:37,763 --> 00:55:39,958
Get him fast,
'cause we need him and I ain't kiddin'!
875
00:55:40,032 --> 00:55:42,227
- Finnegan? Finnegan?
- Finnegan thejanitor.
876
00:55:42,301 --> 00:55:44,360
Put him on the stand and ask him
who he sold his gun to.
877
00:55:44,437 --> 00:55:46,428
Ask him what Amos said
on that very morning.
878
00:55:46,506 --> 00:55:48,804
- Mr. Flynn!
- Not a chance, buddy!
879
00:55:48,875 --> 00:55:50,934
But it's important, I tell you!
880
00:55:51,010 --> 00:55:53,444
- You can't see anybody now.
- Roxie!
881
00:55:53,513 --> 00:55:55,572
Are you her lover or a newspaperman?
882
00:55:55,648 --> 00:55:57,946
We got the biggest story
of the century in our mitts.
883
00:55:58,017 --> 00:56:01,384
If this dame swings, it'll be a story
you could tell your grandchildren about.
884
00:56:01,454 --> 00:56:04,446
- Why, you ghoul!
- Finnegan could tell him that that very morning...
885
00:56:04,524 --> 00:56:08,290
Roxie, we can't get Finnegan.
886
00:56:08,361 --> 00:56:11,797
Of course you can.
887
00:56:11,864 --> 00:56:15,322
- What do you mean?
- He's dead.
888
00:56:16,569 --> 00:56:19,902
Dead?
Uh-uh, nah, he can't be.
889
00:56:19,972 --> 00:56:23,965
He's dead. He's been dead for two weeks.
We gotta do it my way.
890
00:56:24,043 --> 00:56:28,480
He can't be! He can't do that to me!
I've been depending on him.
891
00:56:28,548 --> 00:56:31,779
He heard him say it. He sold him
the gun. He's the only one who...
892
00:56:31,851 --> 00:56:34,342
I didn't do it.
I never had anything to do with him!
893
00:56:34,420 --> 00:56:36,513
He was drunk.
I could have handled him.
894
00:56:36,589 --> 00:56:38,853
He didn't have to shoot him!
Finnegan can tell him.
895
00:56:38,925 --> 00:56:40,916
- Don't you understand?
- Roxie! Roxie!
896
00:56:42,495 --> 00:56:44,486
It's important, Roxie!
I talked to that janitor.
897
00:56:44,564 --> 00:56:48,193
- I interviewed him.
- Finnegan? You did? Let him in, Mike.
898
00:56:48,267 --> 00:56:51,964
Mr. Howard, on the day after
the killing of Fred Casely...
899
00:56:52,038 --> 00:56:55,007
did you have a conversation
with one Michael Finnegan...
900
00:56:55,074 --> 00:56:57,372
janitor of the apartment house
in which the Harts lived?
901
00:56:57,443 --> 00:56:59,877
- Yes, sir.
- Tell us what was said.
902
00:56:59,946 --> 00:57:02,471
- When I talked to him...
- Your Honor, I object...
903
00:57:02,548 --> 00:57:04,982
to the witness answering
on the grounds it would be hearsay.
904
00:57:05,051 --> 00:57:08,509
Why wasn't this man Finnegan brought
here himself to tell what he knows?
905
00:57:08,588 --> 00:57:10,954
Well, he's dead, Your Honor.
He died two weeks ago.
906
00:57:11,023 --> 00:57:13,355
Was there any other witness
to the conversation?
907
00:57:13,426 --> 00:57:16,452
- No, sir.
- Objection sustained.
908
00:57:16,529 --> 00:57:20,056
- You mean I can't...
- I object to any further remarks.
909
00:57:20,132 --> 00:57:22,657
- The witness will leave the stand.
- But this is important!
910
00:57:22,735 --> 00:57:25,898
- It has an important bearing on...
- Such testimony is inadmissible.
911
00:57:25,972 --> 00:57:29,032
Leave the stand at once, sir.
912
00:57:29,108 --> 00:57:32,839
Step down, Mr. Howard.
913
00:57:32,912 --> 00:57:36,712
The jury will disregard everything
that was said by the witness.
914
00:57:43,055 --> 00:57:46,354
You see, in New York or Los Angeles
or some other sissy town...
915
00:57:46,425 --> 00:57:48,416
that'd be the end of it.
916
00:57:48,494 --> 00:57:51,986
Nothing but law. But in Chicago,
the law doesn't count.
917
00:57:52,064 --> 00:57:56,524
It's justice we're after.
What do you say, kid?
918
00:57:56,602 --> 00:57:59,503
- I'm scared.
- You can do it, you know.
919
00:58:01,641 --> 00:58:03,768
They're gonna hang me.
920
00:58:03,843 --> 00:58:07,506
Roxie, you know who's sitting
out front there?
921
00:58:07,580 --> 00:58:09,741
I don't care. I'm scared.
922
00:58:09,815 --> 00:58:12,511
- Ziegfeld.
- I don't ca...
923
00:58:14,487 --> 00:58:16,546
- Who?
- Ziegfeld...
924
00:58:16,622 --> 00:58:19,090
the greatest musical producer
in the world.
925
00:58:21,160 --> 00:58:23,492
No kid.
926
00:58:28,034 --> 00:58:30,594
Mrs. Hart, take the stand.
927
00:58:35,708 --> 00:58:38,472
Hold it! All right!
Hold it! Hold it, Roxie.
928
00:58:38,544 --> 00:58:42,036
Let's take a nice one now.
Big smile, honey. That's it. Open.
929
00:58:42,114 --> 00:58:44,947
Flash! That did it.
All right, fellas, break it up.
930
00:58:45,017 --> 00:58:47,383
Oh, I got a pip.
931
00:58:56,062 --> 00:58:59,896
Do you swear the testimony you're about to
give is the truth and nothing but the truth?
932
00:58:59,965 --> 00:59:02,729
Yeah, I do.
933
00:59:11,644 --> 00:59:16,383
No drugs, no surgery,
no down payment.
934
00:59:17,617 --> 00:59:21,075
- Were do you live, Mrs. Hart?
- County jail.
935
00:59:21,154 --> 00:59:23,748
When did you first meet Fred Casely?
936
00:59:23,823 --> 00:59:26,189
Ten minutes past 5:00,January 8.
937
00:59:26,259 --> 00:59:29,626
- Where?
- At a bus stop.
938
00:59:29,696 --> 00:59:32,927
Tell the jury the circumstances.
939
00:59:32,999 --> 00:59:36,992
Well, it was rainin', and I was
standin' there with my girlfriend.
940
00:59:37,070 --> 00:59:40,767
Mr. Casely drove up in his coupe
and says, "It's a nice day for ducks. "
941
00:59:40,840 --> 00:59:45,607
- And we said, "Yes. "
- Both of you?
942
00:59:45,678 --> 00:59:48,613
She said it first, and then I said it.
943
00:59:48,681 --> 00:59:51,650
And then he said could
he drive us somewhere and...
944
00:59:51,718 --> 00:59:54,812
well, you know
how crowded the buses are.
945
00:59:54,888 --> 00:59:57,152
So, you said yes.
946
00:59:57,223 --> 01:00:00,852
Well, she said it first,
and then I said it.
947
01:00:00,927 --> 01:00:03,896
- And so he drove you home.
- Yes, sir.
948
01:00:03,963 --> 01:00:06,955
How did Mr. Casely conduct himself
during this drive...
949
01:00:07,033 --> 01:00:09,126
unusually friendly in any way?
950
01:00:09,202 --> 01:00:12,569
Oh, no, sir. He was a perfect gent
in every sense of the word.
951
01:00:12,639 --> 01:00:16,803
All he said was,
wouldn't I like to have a screen test.
952
01:00:16,876 --> 01:00:19,868
When was the next time you saw him?
953
01:00:19,946 --> 01:00:22,915
The next day.
It rained again.
954
01:00:22,982 --> 01:00:26,383
Would you say, then, that, uh,
Casely was now pursuing you?
955
01:00:26,453 --> 01:00:30,913
- I'll say!
- Other than these innocent rides home in the rain...
956
01:00:30,990 --> 01:00:33,982
did you ever have any social
engagements with this man Casely?
957
01:00:34,060 --> 01:00:37,826
- Yes, sir. Once.
- And that was?
958
01:00:37,897 --> 01:00:40,365
The Policeman's Benefit Ball.
959
01:00:40,433 --> 01:00:43,698
He asked you to go to this ball
and you consented...
960
01:00:43,770 --> 01:00:48,230
- although you were married, Roxie?
- Yes, sir.
961
01:00:48,308 --> 01:00:52,244
You believe in the sacredness
of the marriage tie, don't you?
962
01:00:52,312 --> 01:00:55,076
I object, Your Honor!
What the witness believes is immaterial.
963
01:00:55,148 --> 01:00:58,174
You know that the marriage tie
is sacred, don't you?
964
01:00:58,251 --> 01:01:03,348
Oh, yes, sir. That's what I kept
tellin' him all along.
965
01:01:03,423 --> 01:01:08,019
Tell us, then, why you went to the policeman's
ball that night with this man Casely.
966
01:01:08,094 --> 01:01:10,392
Oh, I don't know.
967
01:01:10,463 --> 01:01:13,455
So many things happen,
you don't know why.
968
01:01:13,533 --> 01:01:17,560
I wouldn't have if my...
969
01:01:17,637 --> 01:01:21,300
Mr. Hart and me
hadn't quarreled that morning.
970
01:01:21,374 --> 01:01:24,366
Oh, Roxie!
And who was to blame?
971
01:01:25,645 --> 01:01:27,772
Me, I guess.
972
01:01:27,847 --> 01:01:31,806
It seemed like
I couldn't stop pesterin' him.
973
01:01:31,885 --> 01:01:33,978
Pestering him?
What about?
974
01:01:34,053 --> 01:01:38,615
Because I wanted a home,
a real home with little kiddies.
975
01:01:38,691 --> 01:01:40,818
- That's why!
- Hold it! Hold it!
976
01:01:40,894 --> 01:01:43,294
Hold it, Roxie. That's it.
Get in a little closer.
977
01:01:43,363 --> 01:01:45,558
That's it, talkin' to the kiddies.
I said hold it.
978
01:01:45,632 --> 01:01:48,100
Open. Flash!
That did it.
979
01:01:48,167 --> 01:01:50,328
All right. Break it up, fellas.
980
01:01:52,739 --> 01:01:55,401
Now, uh, what happened
at the policeman's ball?
981
01:01:57,710 --> 01:01:59,837
He gave me a drink.
982
01:01:59,913 --> 01:02:02,473
Really?
What kind of a drink?
983
01:02:04,217 --> 01:02:07,653
Oh. I don't know.
984
01:02:07,720 --> 01:02:11,850
It just tasted bad...
nasty... kaaa!
985
01:02:11,925 --> 01:02:14,758
If that's what whiskey is... ugh!
986
01:02:18,031 --> 01:02:22,434
That is just the kind of loose talk
that is giving whiskey a bad name.
987
01:02:22,502 --> 01:02:26,700
Did Casely misunderstand your, uh,
ambition to put your talents on the stage?
988
01:02:26,773 --> 01:02:29,936
Oh, yes, indeed, sir.
989
01:02:30,009 --> 01:02:33,809
Roxie Hart! The state charges you
with the murder of Fred Casely.
990
01:02:33,880 --> 01:02:36,781
- Guilty or not guilty?
- Not guilty!
991
01:02:36,849 --> 01:02:39,113
Oh, not guilty!
992
01:02:39,185 --> 01:02:42,643
Not guilty. I may have killed him, yes.
But not murder!
993
01:02:42,722 --> 01:02:45,953
Oh, not that!
994
01:02:49,262 --> 01:02:51,355
Do you remember
Friday, September 5?
995
01:02:51,431 --> 01:02:53,422
Yes, sir.
996
01:02:55,635 --> 01:02:58,502
Tell the jury now in your own way...
997
01:02:58,571 --> 01:03:01,734
the happenings
of that day in the late afternoon.
998
01:03:01,808 --> 01:03:04,743
Now, take your time and speak clearly.
999
01:03:13,219 --> 01:03:17,553
Well, that afternoon
at Mr. Casely's request...
1000
01:03:17,624 --> 01:03:20,684
I went to his office
and gave an audition for a Mr. Marcus.
1001
01:03:20,760 --> 01:03:23,923
- What kind of an audition, my dear?
- I did the black hula.
1002
01:03:23,997 --> 01:03:27,489
- The black hula?
- It's a mixture of the hula hula and the Black Bottom.
1003
01:03:27,567 --> 01:03:30,502
- I invented it myself.
- That's enough.
1004
01:03:30,570 --> 01:03:32,663
Continue.
1005
01:03:32,739 --> 01:03:35,765
So when I finished, Mr. Marcus
turned to Mr. Casely and said...
1006
01:03:35,842 --> 01:03:39,039
- "Are you kidding?" and walked out.
- Go on.
1007
01:03:39,112 --> 01:03:41,376
So I took the Cottage Grove car
to South Melrose...
1008
01:03:41,447 --> 01:03:44,746
and stopped at a grocer's to buy some baking
powder for some biscuits for breakfast.
1009
01:03:44,817 --> 01:03:47,012
He loved my biscuits.
1010
01:03:48,755 --> 01:03:51,952
- And this was about what time?
- 6:11 p. m.
1011
01:03:52,025 --> 01:03:54,755
So I was singing about my housework
when the doorbell rang...
1012
01:03:54,827 --> 01:03:58,695
- and thinking it was my girlfriend, Irma...
- Never mind what you thought.
1013
01:03:58,765 --> 01:04:01,233
I went to the door,
and who do you think it was?
1014
01:04:01,300 --> 01:04:04,133
- Casely?
- It wasn't his uncle.
1015
01:04:04,203 --> 01:04:07,195
And, oh, was he intoxicated.
1016
01:04:07,273 --> 01:04:11,403
So I said, "Go away, Mr. Casely.
You are intoxicated. "
1017
01:04:11,477 --> 01:04:15,072
- But do you think he paid any attention to that?
- He entered?
1018
01:04:15,148 --> 01:04:17,946
He forced his way into my presence.
1019
01:04:18,017 --> 01:04:21,043
Now, now, now, now, be strong, my dear.
Bear up.
1020
01:04:21,120 --> 01:04:24,715
So I said, "You certainly got a crust,
Mr. Casely. And please beat it.
1021
01:04:24,791 --> 01:04:27,157
"'Cause how do you think
this is going to look to my...
1022
01:04:27,226 --> 01:04:29,820
to my husband. "
1023
01:04:29,896 --> 01:04:32,922
- And he still wouldn't go?
- Well, he was really crocked.
1024
01:04:32,999 --> 01:04:37,265
- I mean, intoxicated.
- Well, why didn't you scream?
1025
01:04:37,336 --> 01:04:40,772
Oh, I was ashamed
for the neighbors to know.
1026
01:04:40,840 --> 01:04:44,571
Well, you know how you'd feel.
1027
01:04:44,644 --> 01:04:47,807
But I kept sayin' to him
we could easy get into a jam here.
1028
01:04:47,880 --> 01:04:50,610
So, finally, he said if I'd just
take one drink with him, he'd beat it.
1029
01:04:50,683 --> 01:04:53,277
- So I did.
- And then?
1030
01:04:53,352 --> 01:04:56,185
Oh, he was really
simply insane about me, you know.
1031
01:04:56,255 --> 01:05:01,090
- But you...
- Oh, I loved my husband.
1032
01:05:01,160 --> 01:05:03,720
I really did.
1033
01:05:05,231 --> 01:05:08,530
And when you told him that,
what did he say?
1034
01:05:08,601 --> 01:05:11,263
Nothing.
He just grabbed me.
1035
01:05:11,337 --> 01:05:13,362
And where were you at this time?
1036
01:05:13,439 --> 01:05:16,169
Uh, standing by the pianola.
1037
01:05:16,242 --> 01:05:18,335
Show the jury.
1038
01:05:20,947 --> 01:05:24,474
- Take it easy.
- Here.
1039
01:05:24,550 --> 01:05:28,816
- And Casely?
- On the floor... Uh, by the door.
1040
01:05:28,888 --> 01:05:32,016
Roxie, tell the jury...
1041
01:05:32,091 --> 01:05:34,651
what happened next.
1042
01:05:34,727 --> 01:05:39,164
Well, it just happened that Mr. Hart's
revolver was laying on the telephone table.
1043
01:05:39,232 --> 01:05:42,201
And Mr. Casely made a grab for it,
and I said, "Cut that out, Mr. Casely!"
1044
01:05:42,268 --> 01:05:45,260
I knocked it out of his hand. It fell
on the floor and we both grabbed for it.
1045
01:05:46,572 --> 01:05:49,700
- We both grabbed for it.
- Yes?
1046
01:05:49,776 --> 01:05:52,973
I got it,
and then he started for me.
1047
01:05:53,045 --> 01:05:56,742
I can see him now with that
awful look in his eye. A wild look.
1048
01:05:56,816 --> 01:05:59,751
What kind of a look? Describe it
to the audience, uh, to the jury.
1049
01:05:59,819 --> 01:06:02,720
Oh, it was terrible...
angry, like a crazy man.
1050
01:06:02,789 --> 01:06:05,019
- Did you think he might kill you?
- Oh, yes, sir.
1051
01:06:05,091 --> 01:06:07,355
- I know if once he got that gun...
- It was his life or yours.
1052
01:06:07,426 --> 01:06:09,860
Oh, yes, sir.
But he still kept comin' toward me.
1053
01:06:09,929 --> 01:06:14,491
On and on with that awful look,
that wild look.
1054
01:06:14,567 --> 01:06:17,161
- And then I shut my eyes.
- Go on, Roxie.
1055
01:06:17,236 --> 01:06:21,468
- And then I fired.
- In defense of your life!
1056
01:06:22,608 --> 01:06:25,907
My life, yes.
1057
01:06:25,978 --> 01:06:28,674
But not just mine.
1058
01:06:28,748 --> 01:06:31,876
Hold it! Hold it! Hold it!
1059
01:06:31,951 --> 01:06:34,283
All right. Get in a little closer.
1060
01:06:34,353 --> 01:06:39,052
All right, everybody. Hold it! Open!
Flash! That did it. Break it up, fellas.
1061
01:06:39,125 --> 01:06:43,653
Do you suffer from spots
before the eyes?
1062
01:06:43,996 --> 01:06:47,432
Now, here's where you weep.
1063
01:06:47,500 --> 01:06:50,264
You may take her life, gentlemen,
as the state asks.
1064
01:06:50,336 --> 01:06:54,136
But that won't bring Casely back.
Hmm.
1065
01:06:54,207 --> 01:06:56,471
That's always news to a jury.
1066
01:06:56,542 --> 01:07:00,535
- And for what purpose,
to protect society?
1067
01:07:00,613 --> 01:07:04,049
Well, weep you fool!
1068
01:07:04,116 --> 01:07:06,311
Open your mouth.
1069
01:07:06,385 --> 01:07:09,286
Give me that gum.
Give me that gum!
1070
01:07:14,694 --> 01:07:18,221
- You may take her life,
gentlemen, as the state asks,
1071
01:07:18,297 --> 01:07:20,629
But that won't bring Casely back.
1072
01:07:20,700 --> 01:07:24,067
- And for what purpose,
to protect society?
1073
01:07:24,136 --> 01:07:27,037
Do you fear that weeping girl?
1074
01:07:31,244 --> 01:07:34,145
- Do you?
- No.
1075
01:07:34,213 --> 01:07:36,647
- Do you?
- No.
1076
01:07:36,716 --> 01:07:41,085
For her reformation?
She learned her lesson, gentlemen...
1077
01:07:41,153 --> 01:07:44,452
in those dark hours, alone in her cell.
1078
01:07:44,523 --> 01:07:47,287
For punishment?
Great heavens, gentlemen.
1079
01:07:47,360 --> 01:07:50,193
Hasn't she been punished enough? No.
1080
01:07:50,263 --> 01:07:54,825
None of these. But to satisfy
the greedy ambition of the prosecution.
1081
01:07:54,901 --> 01:07:57,768
Prosecution? No.
Persecution!
1082
01:07:57,837 --> 01:08:00,169
You are asked for a life, gentlemen...
1083
01:08:00,239 --> 01:08:04,141
by one who would climb to fame
on dead bodies.
1084
01:08:04,210 --> 01:08:07,270
We cannot give her happiness now.
It is too late for that.
1085
01:08:07,346 --> 01:08:09,473
Betrayed, crushed...
1086
01:08:09,548 --> 01:08:13,882
we can only let her pick up the broken
fragments of her life... the tangled threads.
1087
01:08:13,953 --> 01:08:18,117
We can give her another chance.
Quiet.
1088
01:08:18,190 --> 01:08:23,321
Gentlemen,
if you convict this delicate child...
1089
01:08:23,396 --> 01:08:27,662
it would be
like taking these fragile flowers...
1090
01:08:27,733 --> 01:08:31,328
and crushing them
into dead and broken blossoms.
1091
01:08:31,404 --> 01:08:36,341
No! No! Oh, no!
1092
01:08:36,409 --> 01:08:39,071
Oh, no...
1093
01:08:39,145 --> 01:08:42,137
Stand back, gentlemen!
1094
01:08:45,618 --> 01:08:48,712
- The defense rests, Your Honor.
- Hold it!
1095
01:08:48,788 --> 01:08:51,757
Hold it, Bill!
That's fine! A little this way!
1096
01:08:51,824 --> 01:08:54,088
That's right, Bill!
All right now. Everybody, hold it!
1097
01:08:54,160 --> 01:08:56,890
Open! Flash! That did it!
1098
01:08:56,963 --> 01:08:58,296
They're ready, boys.
1099
01:08:58,331 --> 01:09:01,596
They're ready, boys.
1100
01:09:19,485 --> 01:09:21,476
Boy!
1101
01:09:55,121 --> 01:09:57,851
The defendant please rise.
1102
01:09:59,158 --> 01:10:02,889
"We, thejury, find the defendant... "
1103
01:10:17,543 --> 01:10:21,877
Heya, Roxie Hart...
1104
01:10:42,068 --> 01:10:44,593
Thank you!
Thank you! Thank you...
1105
01:10:44,670 --> 01:10:47,036
all of my dear, dear friends.
1106
01:10:55,848 --> 01:11:00,649
If a man jumps into your home, you got
a right to protect your home, haven't ya?
1107
01:11:00,719 --> 01:11:04,951
- Sure! Sure!
- All I know is, the judge said bring you in.
1108
01:11:05,024 --> 01:11:07,925
- You tell him all about it.
- But if you find a man in your home...
1109
01:11:07,993 --> 01:11:10,291
you got a right
to do something about it!
1110
01:11:10,362 --> 01:11:14,128
Jake! Jake! Hey, wait a minute, Jake!
1111
01:11:14,200 --> 01:11:16,634
I'm sorry, kid.
It's all over!
1112
01:11:16,702 --> 01:11:19,227
You're yesterday's news!
1113
01:11:19,305 --> 01:11:22,297
- Did you shoot Casely?
- Yes, but I couldn't...
1114
01:11:22,374 --> 01:11:24,569
Then have no fear. Justice will prevail
if we have to take your case...
1115
01:11:26,011 --> 01:11:27,945
to the Supreme Court.
Of the United States.
1116
01:11:28,013 --> 01:11:31,779
The whole thing is persecution.
A deal was made!
1117
01:11:31,851 --> 01:11:34,081
Open! Flash! That did it!
1118
01:11:34,153 --> 01:11:36,417
Well, for cryin' out loud.
1119
01:11:36,489 --> 01:11:38,753
Oh, Roxie,
I can't tell you how happy I am.
1120
01:11:38,824 --> 01:11:41,691
They never even let me thank 'em.
1121
01:11:41,760 --> 01:11:44,251
When they didn't come in for so long...
Oh, darling...
1122
01:11:44,330 --> 01:11:46,821
You're free now, you know.
We can go out, have dinner together...
1123
01:11:46,899 --> 01:11:50,232
see a show, be together,
dance together...
1124
01:11:50,302 --> 01:11:52,429
Mrs. Hart,
I just want to congratulate you.
1125
01:11:52,505 --> 01:11:55,599
- Oh, thank you. Thank you.
- I don't want too be too forward...
1126
01:11:55,674 --> 01:11:59,041
but could I give you a lift somewhere
in my Packard?
1127
01:11:59,111 --> 01:12:02,103
- Packard?
- Roxie.
1128
01:12:07,953 --> 01:12:11,411
What a dame.
What a dame!
1129
01:12:11,490 --> 01:12:16,553
So that was Roxie, gents,
