Description
Considered one of the most popular musicals of all time, WEST SIDE STORY earned director Robert Wise an Oscar for Best Director as well as nine other Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Realistically portrayed characters and their surroundings and expert editing complementing innovative dance sequences mark this highly stylized modern-day Romeo and Juliet tale. The stage is set in New York's Upper West Side in the 1950s, where the area's slums are plagued by racial tensions acted on by two rival gangs: the Puerto Rican Sharks and the Caucasian Jets. In the middle of this mess is young, innocent Maria (Natalie Wood), a Puerto Rican seamstress whose brother, Bernardo (George Chakiris), is the leader of the Sharks. Despite the warnings of Anita (Rita Moreno), Bernardo's fiery girlfriend, Maria falls in love with a young, hopeful Polish boy, Tony (Richard Beymer), who used to belong to the Jets, now headed by Riff (Russ Tamblyn). When Tony, on Maria's urging, tries to stop a rumble between the gangs, tragedy ensues, marking their dedicated love affair with violence and desperation. The infectious, lyrical landmark score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim help round out one of the greatest musical experiences ever captured on film.

Watch it for the great dancing. Just cover your ears when the characters stop singing and talk to each other.

I still watch the movie over and over again.The best musical of all times. I'm 49 year old and the movie still makes me dance and sing. Not a boring part to the movie.

Musicals aren't my thing. Especially not old corny ones like this.

WOW. If you are not gay, this movie is not your cup of tea. The fruity dancing basketball players? The fruity street fight dance? Unwatchable.

As an ex-Chicago stret gang member let me tell you- we did not sing or dance

I did this one (off Broadway) so I am partial. I love the music and dancing . I would have voted this my favorite musical until "Moulin Rouge" came along. Natalie Wood did a wonderful acting part but why couldn't they get a real singer/actress to do the lead role instead of the obvious dubbing of Ms. Wood's voice

Musicals were pure escapism and this is no exception. Great score, fine dancing, entertaining story. You want reality? Watch "Cops" on television. Loved Natalie and Rita Moreno (Who probably should have been Maria, too ethnic for Hollywood). Richard Chakris (Bernardo) was fairly convincing as a tough guy, the rest of the fellas, not so much.
