Lol I loved so much Rita Moreno's character (never knew who she was until today🤭) that dress is iconic. I'm glad that she won an Oscar for that, when they talk about West Side story first that comes to my mind is her in that dress and the Puerto Rican guys in that iconic pose... you know, that pose!

That outfit Moreno wore at the Oscars in 1962, Rita never acknowledged the designer -- despite the fact that she and the designer shared the same last name. And then she resurrected that outfit some 50 years later at another Oscar ceremony again WITHOUT crediting the original designer. So, for the records, Rita Moreno won her 1961 Oscar in an outfit by Manila designer Pitoy MORENO!! Rita was shooting a movie in the Philippines when she had to rush to Hollywood for the Oscar ceremony; hence, she picked up a rush outfit in Manila. And that's the rest of the story, folks!!

@@RaymondHng Good to know. But I've not caught any of the other interviews wherein she named Mr. Moreno. Good to know the fate of the dress is at the new museum.

Rita Moreno , unbelievable talent and beauty . Unfortunately this version of West Side Story didn't make the impact they hoped for , in both societal and box office . It's a shame because it really is well made and Rachel Zegler was phenomenal , she deserved a nomination above everyone else in the film . But as you watch all the promo , interviews , news reports about the film , all they talk about is how they got it right this time , no subtitles , all Latina & Latino cast , which is terrific, but in this tension filled world , created solely by Politicians to spread division , gain votes , people want to go to the movies to escape reality , embrace the movie , but to have these political agendas in even the promotional materials . Spielberg kept saying the Latin X community , sounds so phony, not one Latin person outside of mainstream media or political candidates has ever used Latin X, and not downplay the Spanish by having subtitles , which also alienated a good portion of the audience . So much of the film is spoken in Spanish , without subtitles. How are subtitles racist ? If you go to any other Country they use subtitles so everyone can understand the language , for every film . Hollywood is so out of touch with everyone .They got it so wrong and everyone stayed away . It lost over 100 million , Spielberg's biggest financial bomb in his whole career . Still a shame because the film was well done , incredible cast and performances .

@@citadel9611 your statement simply says you’re sick and tired of crying of these people who are living incredible lives complaining about racism. Jackie Robinson, Kareem Abdul jabbar, Bill Russell, and others have all lived lives and experienced greatness in sport that only a few will ever get to live. The fact that they all have incredible talent should not diminish the problems they faced in society and their right to speak out on these issues. Because Langston Hughes was a world famous poet and writer (which people dream of doing), he should not have written about the stifled dreams of Harlem? Your statement lacked any nuance that you suggested I infer. Even with the nuance that you suggest is in your statement, I would argue your point is inherently simplistic. Who else would be able to point out racial discrimination in the movie industry aside from the people who have been endeavoring in it? Is the fact that they darkened her skin to make her look more “puerto rican” when she is in fact already Puerto Rican not an indication of a fundamental misunderstanding of representing this people? Are female CEOs not allowed to talk about discrimination in the workplace, or stereotypes and injustices they had to challenge and getting promotions and reaching their position, simply because they made it to the top in spite of it?

New West Side Story: 1. Good idea to have Rita Marino inserted into the Steven Spielberg script of *West Side Story* 2. Best Actress role for Oscar nomination for Spielberg's version will be Maria (Rachel Zegler) and then Anita (Ariana DeBose) for supporting Oscar nomination. I think Rachel Zegler's acting for Maria, was better than Natalie Wood in Robert's Wise production. 3. Second choice for best supporting actress: Rita Marino. (yes again) 4. I did not like any of the character actors choice for either the Jets or Sharks in this Spielberg version. 5. I did not like the first act of the Spielberg version as much as the Robert Wise version, but the second act of Spielberg's version made up for the 1st act's shortcomings. Spielberg's first act of his movie was too, too, dark. 6. My choice for which movie was better would be the flawless *1st* West Side Story. Robert Wise was the better Director in this for the 1st Movie version of the play. However the second act of Spielberg's version made tears come from my eyes, but don't tell anybody as I don't want my manhood questioned. 7. In the first movie the Jet gang gave respect for the little girl playing on the ground and walked around her play area. In the Spielberg version the Jets ripped up the little girls artwork on the ground. I could not get behind the Jets after that. 8. The dance scenes in both versions were equally good. 9. Spielberg claimed he did not want to copy the first, Robert Wise version, however he did in the opening. In the first, Wise version, we have an aerial shot flying over Manhattan, in Spielberg's version we have an aerial shot flying over the demolished section of the gang area with same intro music. 10. Spielberg's version of West Side Story, should be nominated for *Best Picture* Oscar this year, however from the *WOKE* Hollywood, they might choose another low budget foreign movie made with no whites in it, that nobody will see, for diversity's sake. Then that will remind me of Marxist Korean movie (looked like a college student made film) winning Best Picture over "1917" a real professional movie. And like Spielberg's movie, "Saving Private Ryan" that didn't win Best Picture, which it should have, over that terrible love movie, again, that nobody saw. 11. Why couldn't Spielberg use any other race besides Puerto Rican? That was a racist decision on WOKE Spielberg. High class acting is art, that a great actor could pull it off. Spielberg now denies race to play any role unless they are the same race of the character portrayed? This is a slam in the face of all actors. Example, he could have used actors from any South American country as long as they looked Puerto Rican. Come on man! Spielberg trying to be WOKE is a racist to all other promising actors. 13. What was this freak dark character tranny character that used to be a tom boy girl in the Robert Wise motive? We could see in the Robert Wise movie that this was a tom boy girl. However in this movie, we don't know who this scary creature from hell was in Spielberg's version. Spielberg was again trying to be WOKE by picking a tranny freak character from this years 2021 to by making the LGBTQ people happy. That demonic freak character was a bust.
