Chicago Quote by Richard Roeper

“Well, I think one of the reasons Chicago became so popular as a filmmaker location is because New York had been used so many times that Chicago, I think, was rediscovered maybe in the late '60s, early '70s for a long time as a new location.” quote by Richard Roeper — Download Open image
