West Side Story (Full Screen Edition)
This brilliant (The New Republic) film sets the ageless story of Romeo and Juliet against a backdrop of gang warfare in 1950s New York. Directed by Robert Wise and Jerome Robbins and scripted by Ernest Lehman, the film combines Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim's unforgettable score ( Maria, America, 'somewhere, 'tonight ) with Robbins own exuberant choreography to achieve an exhilarating work of art (Saturday Review). A love affair is fated for tragedy amidst the vicious rivalry of two street gangsthe Jets and the Sharks. When Jets member Tony (RichardBeymer) falls for Maria (Natalie Wood), the sister of the Sharks leader, it's more than these two warring gangs can handle. And as mounting tensions rise, a battle to the death ensues, and innocent blood is shed in a heartbreaking finale. more

While the video was okay there was a nasty scratching sound in the audio. This was a defective dvd but as the shipping invoice was discarded I couldn't send it back. So I am very disappointed.

- Good Musical
I had seen this movie when younger and loved it. It's a great musical and I had purchased it for a gift for my granddaughter. I hope she enjoys it as much as I did. Good actors and actresses with a variety of music.

- Natalie Wood shines!
West Side Story is beloved musical but I could never get in to this classic. The Romeo & Juliet angle doesn't work in a musical style setting, it comes off corny and superficial. Natalie Wood is the bright point in this film, even though...
