West Side Story a review by Bour Romain

West Side Story is a beautiful movie, a tragical musical.
It was adapted:
-in 1961 in the USA
-in 1962 in France

In the movie, there are two gangs:
-The Jet
-The Sharks

On the one hand,this movie from the sixties is a beautiful movie for its time.
This is a musical movie.The musical is active when the characters dance.
On the other hand, this movie is very long.

You should go to see it because it is a good movie and beautiful too (repetitions!!!!), but it is long.
Romeo and Juliet was transcribed in musical too?????.

Romeo=Tony
Juliet=Maria
