West Side Story - America

Best song in the movie...

Actually, a lot of the songs bored me...usually I like musical songs, but some in this one pissed me off.

This clip is probably 50 years old seeing that West Side Story won Best Picture in 1961. Still brings the goods home, and is a classic for the music, choreography, and cinematography. I disagree with the negative comments posted here with respect to the dialect, camera shots, and where it should start. Watch the whole movie to appreciate the time and efforts of all that made West Side Story a timeless American classic as an urban update of the Bard's Romeo and Juliet.

@thelonelyslayer Sometimes people simply don't have the means to leave. I heard a Russian guy once complaining about his own native country and remarked, "if I could leave, I would leave right away."

@yamahedp I like Glee's version too especially Santana's performance, but they can't hold a candle to the original, but Santana come pretty close. IMO
