There was once a time when musicals weren't turned into movies too quickly because folks feared that a film version would cut into its Broadway grosses. Now the shoe is on the other foot. I think the reason why this revival of ''Chicago'' has run so long is because the movie was such a hit and branded it for tourists galore. Even though it would be much cheaper to just rent the DVD of ''Chicago,'' there are still many who want to see it live, not in spite of the movie, but because of it.
