West Side Story - America

right? he freaking walked right in front of it. how is it that the studio didn't redo that take b/c thats just ridiculous

0:35 "I KNOW YOU DO!" ROFL

its the men who were watching the girls dance, they were recording from a camera that was close to the floor, so what, they blocked one/ two people, it doesnt mater.

its still like that in america accept the part where they sing "industryboom in america"

industry was booming @ the time
i guess that part's excusable lol

0:44 is where the video should start. But none of them are cut that way. Whatever.

I think it's conceivable that that is on purpose, giving the scene a less totally stagey feel, keeps the scene feeling lively and a bit messy. I actually like it. It's what makes Bob Fosse's directing so genius in 'Cabaret'. Then again maybe it's a mistake.

See, i too enjoy Cabaret for its unneatness, yet in a major dance sceen like this it just kinda pulls me out like when your watching something in the distance thats really cool then someone gets in the way. i find it slightly irritating.

I love this scene
it always gave me chills
(in a good way=]
