West Side Story

 
     

    This is perhaps the most successful of Natalie Wood’s movies. The movie (as well as the Broadway version) is based on Romeo and Juliet. In West Side Story the two star crossed lovers are Tony and Maria. Tony is a member of the Jets. Maria is the sister of the leader of the Sharks Bernardo. The two meet a dance and ultimately fall in love. But with their friends and family in two rival gangs things are difficult.

The film was made 1961. It went on to win 10 Oscars. Both George Chakiris (Bernardo) and Rita Moreno (Anita) won for supporting roles. It also took home Best Picture honors that year.
