O tem filmu

Film ZGODBA Z ZAHODNE STRANI, ki ga je po scenariju scenarista in dramatika Tonyja Kushnerja produciral in režiral legendarni filmski ustvarjalec Steven Spielberg, pripoveduje klasično zgodbo o rivalstvu in mladi ljubezni. Dogaja se v New Yorku leta 1957. Nova generacija lahko doživi predelavo priljubljenega muzikala, ki ga je prvotno koreografiral Jerome Robbins po glasbi Leonarda Bernsteina, besedilu Stephena Sondheima in izvirni knjigi Arthurja Laurentsa. Ansel Elgort igra Tonyja, nekdanjega člana ulične tolpe Jets, Rachel Zegler pa Marío, mlado žensko, katere brat je vodja Sharksov, rivalske tolpe Jetsov. Tony in María se srečata in zaljubita, bližnji pa ju odvračajo od te zveze. Ob naraščanju rasne in ozemeljske napetosti med rivalskima tolpama se odvijejo dogodki, ki ogrozijo srečo mladih zaljubljencev. Poleg ikoničnih skladb film vsebuje osupljivo novo koreografijo Justina Pecka, glasbo priznanega dirigenta losangeleske filharmonije Gustava Dudamela, ki jo je aranžiral skladatelj in dirigent David Newman. V ZGODBI Z ZAHODNE STRANI igrajo tudi Ariana DeBose, David Alvarez, Mike Faist, Josh Andrés Rivera, Ana Isabelle, Corey Stoll, Brian d'Arcy James in Rita Moreno, ki je nastopila v filmski različici iz leta 1961 in je tudi izvršna producentka. Ustvarjalna ekipa filma vključuje tudi Kushnerja kot izvršnega producenta, skupaj z Danielom Lupijem in Adamom Somnerjem, producenta pa sta še Kevin McCollum in Kristie Macosko Krieger. Brezčasna zgodba o ljubezni in socialnih nemirih vključuje tudi čudovito kinematografijo Janusza Kaminskega.

Ocene in mnenja

This is one of the most famous classic Musicals EVER MADE. Rita Moreno made this possible to attract a new generation of westsider fans. Also to the fool who called it dumb. This story shows the struggles of acceptance the AMERICAN CITIZEN OF PUERTO RICO had to endure to be respected & accepted. America=Diversity.WE ALL CAME FROM ANOTHER COUNTRY.SO RESPECT THE HISTORY..I am Made in America,with PuertoRican roots. (Proud Philly Rican) 💯🔥🇵🇷

I've tried to watch this movie 3 times but always burst into laughter whenever the Jets start dancing. I could buy into the hokey dialog and dance styles in a 60's movie, but this not by todays standards of entertainment. Frankly you're better-off just googling the Norm McDonald parady and calling it a night 🌙

The bad reviews make me laugh! Complaints about forgettable songs, race and politics, etc. WATCH the original movie! The songs are classic, the race and politics storyline took place in the 1960's when the movie was made and race is the movies foundation. Spielberg did a spectacular job with the cinematography. While it's not the original, it's a fresh take on the classic. It can always be viewed on Disney+ or HBO/MAX first.
