LATINO MALE HERE, CALIFORNIA NATIVE, 58. I WAS VERY IMPRESSED, AND I LIKE FEW MOVIES, BUT SPIELBERG'S VERSION OF WEST SIDE STORY WAS SUPERB! THE SETS, THE MUSIC AND DANCING, THE LIGHTING AND CAMERA, THE DETAILED HISTORICAL IMAGERY WERE ALL EXCELLENT AND DETAILED. THERE ARE SOME POLITICAL, SEXUAL AND RACIAL PROPAGANDA STATEMENTS THAT SPIELBERG SPRINKLES ON YOU BUT IT WAS SOMETHING HE NEEDED TO DO, LIKE IT OR NOT. IF YOU'RE IN TUNE WITH HOLLYWOOD'S PROPAGANDA, YOU'LL SEE AND HEAR IT IN THIS MOVIE. OVERLOOKING ALL THAT, I WILL SEE THE MOVIE AGAIN.
