West Side Story (1961)

BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOORED. This is the Lawrence of Arabia of musicals [it's 152 minutes] and the A Night at the Opera of the 60s [because you need to fast forward all the singing]. Oh, and the film does a great job of representing latin@s very acccurately. I mean, I'm glad Mr. Sondheim, Mr. Robbins, and Mr. Wise employed an all-white cast that practiced their "accents" real hard. Great job. NOT.
