West Side Story - West Side Story - DVD

For this anticipated second screen take on the Bernstein-Sondheim stage classic, director Steven Spielberg and screenwriter Tony Kushner delivered a dynamic, down-and-dirty do-over, with Ansel Elgort and Rachel Zegler as the budding lovers in the slums of '50s New York whose future would be tragically challenged by the racially charged rivalry of their neighborhoods' street gangs. Ariana DeBose, David Alvarez, Mike Faist, Bryan d'Arcy James, and Rita Moreno co-star; songs include "Jet Song," "Something's Coming," "Maria," "America." 156 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: English.
