Haha, good point! I once saw a stage actor who played Tony in a local rep company who was definitely the weakest link. π€£

Good point! We will never know.
I agree with you 100% about Tamblyn, Chakiris, and Moreno, but really, all the actors were fun to watch.
Thatβs definitely not what I was saying. Tony can be and has been played by many people. I think he was much better than he seems to believe he was, if that makes sense.
I agree with you about this. I guess it was common in the era of voice dubbing.
I really enjoyed it. I love to see new adaptations to classic novels or broadway musicals. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
I saw it at the drive-in once! π€£ #TCMParty #WestSideStory

Richard Beymer supposedly hated his performance in this film, but I think he underrated himself. He does a solid job as Tony, in my opinion. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
Touching βwedding sceneβ but you two crazy teenagers have only known each other for a day. π€£ #TCMParty #WestSideStory
In the stage musical, βOfficer Krupkeβ is sung after the rumble, and βCoolβ is sung by Riff before the rumble. They switched them for the movie, which honestly, works better. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
Itβs a tie with βCool.β #TCMParty #WestSideStory
βSSH! Be very quiet.β Then belts out into song! #TCMParty #WestSideStory
West Side Story would be nothing without the beautiful music of Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim. Absolutely gorgeous lyrical heaven. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
It really is! In many ways, I like it better. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
Rita Moreno appreciation post. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
Iβve been a fan of #WestSideStory since 1983, when I watched the movie in my grandparents den on a quiet Sunday afternoon. Iβve seen it on stage a few times,too. I even have the recording Bernstein did with the opera singers in the 1980s. I love this music so much. #TCMParty
I canβt believe youβve never seen this. This was my absolute favorite movie when I was young. Itβs still one of my favorites, but I wouldnβt say itβs my absolute favorite anymore. I love it. The Spielberg version was wonderful, too. Itβs the music that gets me. #TCMParty #WestSideStory
Tyrone Power of course. #TCMParty #WitnessForTheProsecution
Heβs easy on the eyes, too. #TCMParty #WitnessForTheProsecution
I donβt have cable, but I use sling (blue) with the Hollywood add-on. Itβs about $60 a month. The only channel I care about is TCM. #TCMParty
The look on the cookβs face tells us all we need to know, and confirms our suspicions that Tyrone Power is no good. #TCMParty #WitnessForTheProsecution
Same! I love a movie like this on a Friday night. #TCMParty #WitnessForTheProsecution
Youβd never know it in the film. He was so beautiful. #TCMParty #ARoomWithAView
Agreed! The scenery, the music, the characters β¦ all wonderful! #TCMParty #ARoomWithAView
Iβm here for one of my favorite movies of all time, with its stacked cast, although Iβm not sure I will stay awake. Even though itβs only 7:15pm on the West Coast, itβs been a very long day and Iβm exhausted. #TCMParty #ARoomWithAView
This riverside dance party seems like my kind of fun. #TCMParty #RomanHoliday
Absolutely I see what you are saying. Sorry, but Iβm here for Gregory Peck. π€£ #TCMParty #RomanHoliday
Itβs absolutely beautiful! I cherish every minute of the four days I once spent there. #TCMParty #RomanHoliday
Thatβs so crazy because they all came after we moved away. There were a few wineries nearby, of course, but not along Dry Creek Road (I lived on W. Dry Creek). I remember going wine tasting there with my in-laws, probably 25 years ago. I was shocked by all the wineries and tasting rooms.
