WEST SIDE STORY
March 2, 2017  | By David Bianculli

TCM, 8:00 p.m. ET

 

TCM is up to W in its alphabetical salute to the Oscars – and that means West Side Story, one of the best movie musicals ever made, gets a prime-time showing tonight. This 1969 version of the Broadway musical, with music by Leonard Bernstein, lyrics by Stephen Sondheim, choreography by Jerome Robbins, and starring performances by Natalie Wood, Richard Beymer, Rita Moreno, and Russ Tamblyn. Tamblyn and Beymer would reunite in the original Twin Peaks TV series – and are reuniting again in Showtime’s upcoming Twin Peaks sequel.
