WHICH RACHEL, THE FORMER BACHELORETTE INTERVIEWER IS RACHEL TOO, AND SHE IS REALLY GOOD AT INTERVIEWS !!!

@@AVIDEOGAL Rachel zegler haha, she said it in her recent KZfaq video

You’re forgetting about how just a few months ago she asked an asian oscar winner about how brad Pitt smells

Why haven't we heard about the actual original FIRST Maria? Carole Lawrence and her performances in the original Broadway version is what shaped the character of Maria

This is so beautiful, thank you for sharing!

@@clairelundin11 oh hello! Thank YOU ❤️ for commenting ...it meant a lot!

@@sherkand7241 Carol Lawrence and Larry Kert were amazing and had such chemistry. It might take a little digging but there are videos on utube of them performing in the original Broadway production. It is definitely worth searching for.

@@troyannbladsacker1811 Hi Troy! Yes I've seen quite a few them and have a whole folder of singing clips and screenshots...it's is a true blessing that the owner shared these with the world.... What was so amazing to me was these clips of performances are exactly what I saw on Broadway when I was 10...I'm sure I saw the original cast. I lived in Queens and my Uncle lived in Manhattan. It must have been a matinee...We had the very best seats. All I can tell you is that I had no idea what a play was, or what I was about to see. It literally changed my life. I went in there a.young girl but came out and older and much more mature young lady.... All the sights and sounds are indelibly protected in my memory. I learned about deep love and hate and happiness, and then fighting and death. These scenes created some of who I became in my life. The magic was when I saw Maria (Carole Lawrence) and Anita (Chita Rivera) in the bedroom singing,"I Have a Love.". ..and then in the very poorly filmed but still recognizable clip on my computer was the exact performance in the exact bedroom I saw on Broadway. Then I went through other clips and there was more of Carole and Larry... What a magnificent gift that was to me. I cried my eyes out ...but I still was so lucky and fortunate to see all the clips from Broadway....thanks for your message to look for the clips, that was very kind of you. I wrote this post months ago, and I guess it's still in Cyberspace! Thanks again!

This has been exactly what I was also wondering...BUT, I just came out of the movie, there was a preshow, and I have no words. I cried through almost all of it and I had brought lots of tissues in anticipation. It blows up the screen. Phenomenal. I don't think there will ever be a movie to beat it. Bless Mr Spielberg...he did it MORE than right

This aged very well.

I think it might because of the impact Rita made for the Latino community and what she achieved. I agree that Carole Lawrence did an Amazing job but she didn’t make much of an impact to certain people or a whole community with this movie.

@@alyssafabian5718 yes, you're right about the opportunities she opened up for the Latino community. But I wonder why he hasn't brought out Carole Lawrence bc she is still alive and it is her voice on the Broadway album which Mr. Spielberg has said he is being true to. It is her character acting and singing voice that shaped the first Maria. I have been very apprehensive about what will happen when I see the movie, besides sitting in the back row so I can cry my eyes out! So many people who are unfamiliar with it won't understand it from a perspective of over 55 years, I'm 65. about the Broadway album because I've been listening to it for 55 years. I saw it on Broadway in the best seats. I can visualize every costume, dance step and singing. went in Yesterday I heard Rachel sing "One Hand, One Heart" and I vried

I cried because her voice is exactly Carole Lawrence's voice...

@@sherkand7241 Wow 55 years is a long time to be listening to something….honestly so cool to see your prospective of the movie and how it impacted you compared to how it impacted me someone who just started listening to it in recent years I’m 16 and discovered it 4 years ago so you got some more years on me but I’ll catch up. Also I do agree they should of brought more attention to Carole since she the one who established Maria’s character . Thanks for sharing your opinion very Insightful 😄

@@alyssafabian5718 thank you so much for your thoughtful reply...it made me happy to see that you are 16 and hopefully will pass this on to your friends and family for another 50 years...thank you!
