Classy musical based on the hit Broadway show, with score by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, and choreography by Jerome Robbins. the opening scene, as the camera descends from the sky to the gang-run streets of New York will long stay with you. The two leads (Richard Beymer and Natalie Wood) leave something to be desired—her voice was dubbed by the ubiquitous Marni Nixon—but the supporting cast, led by best-supporting actor-winners George Chakiris and Rita Moreno, is superb.
