- Synopsis
Tonight, tonight, It all began tonight, I saw you and the world went away...
So began one of cinema's most iconic love stories, the ill-fated romance between Puerto Rican María and white American Tony, torn apart by gang warfare in an unforgiving New York City. Now, Steven Spielberg is remaking this beloved classic. Scripted by Pulitzer winner Tony Kushner and featuring Stephen Sondheim's original lyrics, West Side Story is a vivacious celebration of love and Latinx culture, complete with slick choreography and a star-making turn from newcomer Rachel Zegler.
