So how does the film which won ten Oscars on its 1961 release stand up now? Very well indeed. Old-fashioned song-and-dance routines set to Leonard Bernsteins music apart, theres something thoroughly modern about the whole affair a mood set by the gliding opening aerial shots of New York City that embrace key landmarks before finding the mean streets, moody subway lines and dingy bars of Lower Manhattan. Theres a turf war going on down there, a battle between the all-American Jets, led by Riff (Russ Tamblyn), and the Sharks, a local band of Puerto Ricans (played largely by made-up white boys). The core of the story is a loose update of the classic Romeo and Juliet tangle, with Jet Tony (Richard Beymer) and Shark chick Maria (a stunning Natalie Wood) falling head over heels and sparking fireworks between their respective camps. - Time Out London
