I could listen to Mike Faist talk all day long really

I saw the movie last night and was absolutely blown away by it. All the performances ( including Ansel Elgort's-why have people been so harsh about him? His performance is as richly detailed and subtle as the rest of the wonderful cast) and the fantastic dynamic camera movement, choreography etc etc Can't wait to see it again.

Ansel’s performance in this movie seriously amazed me, I sobbed he’s such an amazing actor and his singing is beautiful!!! 🥰🥰👏🏽👏🏽

Ansel and cast omg what amazing talents all of them OMG. Hope to see them all in more future endeavors together

Love this one and the original. Love the kitchen scene and the one Maria and annetta one singing after bernados murder and new take on America and I feel pretty. And way Rita morno was used . Somewhere when she sang I tried not to cry. And surprised your dancing and singing all the cast it was amazing

THIS IS AWESOME

Daniel Day-Lewis never played a cobbler. He took time off from acting to apprentice in cobbling in Italy & became highly skilled to the point of making shoes from scratch.

Two good looking guys. I love them.

Ansel exhibit a Keanu Reeves kinda vibe in his interviews 💓

Cobbler Lincoln .. I smell a franchise there!

Good to see Ansel doing well after his ex’s revenge scheme

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. There was no a manly handsome guy in either gang. 5. I did not like the first act of the Spielberg version as much as the Robert Wise/Jerome Robbin's version, however the second act of Spielberg's version made up for the 1st act's shortcomings. Spielberg's first act of his movie was too, dark. 6. My choice for which movie was better would be the flawless *1st* West Side Story. Robert Wise/Jerome Robbin's version was the better direction in 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, however the Robert Wise/Jerome Robbin's version had all better camera composition on all frames. The colorful lighting on the Robert Wise/Jerome Robbin’s movie made a lot of scenes magical. 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 Robert Wise sounding intro music. 10. Spielberg's version of West Side Story will be nominated for *Best Picture* Oscar this year. However, from the *WOKE* Hollywood, they might choose another low budget foreign movie with another language made movie like Parasite with no whites in it, that nobody will see, but won for diversity's sake. Parasite 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 did not win Best Picture, which it should have, got beat by that that terrible love movie *Shakespeare in Love* again, that nobody saw. 11. Why couldn't Spielberg worry about that most all the actors should be Peuto Rican have to be Puerto Rican? That could be looked as racist decision on WOKE Spielberg. High class acting is art, that a great actor could pull it off being a Puerto Rican even if he is not in real life a Puerto Rican. Yes we hated all the 1940 movies where they always picked a white actor to play an Asian, that obviously did not look even near an Asian. The great Spielberg would deny another 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 or other country as long as they really looked and acted Puerto Rican. Come on man! Let all actors try out from any race as long as they really look and act the part. 13. What was that freak dark character tranny character that used to be a tom boy girl in the Robert Wise movie? We could see in the Robert Wise movie that this was a tom boy girl that we liked. 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 real tranny freak character from this year’s 2021 to make the LGBTQ people today happy. That demonic freak character was a bust. 14. There will be other Oscar nominations beside best picture for this one.

Mike Faust is annoying. Always touching his nose
