Official MGM site

Considered one of the most popular musicals of all time,
"West Side Story" earned director Robert Wise an Oscar for Best Director as well as nine other Academy Awards, including Best Picture. Realistically portrayed characters and their surroundings and expert editing complementing innovative dance sequences mark this highly stylized modern-day Romeo and Juliet tale. The stage is set in New York's Upper West Side in the 1950s, where the area's slums are plagued by racial tensions acted on by two rival gangs: the Puerto Rican Sharks and the Caucasian Jets. In the middle of this mess is young, innocent Maria (Natalie Wood), a Puerto Rican seamstress whose brother, Bernardo (George Chakiris), is the leader of the Sharks. Despite the warnings of Anita (Rita Moreno), Bernardo's fiery girlfriend, Maria falls in love with a young, hopeful Polish boy, Tony (Richard Beymer), who used to belong to the Jets, now headed by Riff (Russ Tamblyn). When Tony, on Maria's urging, tries to stop a rumble between the gangs, tragedy ensues, marking their dedicated love affair with violence and desperation. The infectious, lyrical landmark score by Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim help round out one of the greatest musical experiences ever captured on film.

"West Side Story" was added to the Library of Congress National Film Registry in 1997.

Presented: On the curved screen in a vintage Super Panavision 70 Dolby Stereo print. Aspect ratio: 2,21:1. Country of origin: USA. Production year: 1983. World Premiere: 30.09.1983, The Ziegfeld Theatre, New York, USA

Christopher Walken (Dr. Michael Anthony Brace), Natalie Wood (Karen Brace), Louise Fletcher (Dr. Lillian Reynolds), Cliff Robertson (Alex Terson), Jordan Christopher (Gordy Forbes), Donald Hotton (Landan Marks)

With a machine that can put you into someone else’s experiences then this could be a great fun experience or learning device. But the military can also see some great potential. Partly shot in 70mm, this is a great ride and action movie from Douglas Trumbull, the man responsible for the effects in Kubrick’s 2001.
