I heard my mother said that woman cant live without man, is it true?
I wondered whether West sise Story is the greatest musical ever? The remastered print is being screened in London next month, so does it still hold up?
[ASK! Editor: If you check out RottenTomatoes.com, a site which collects a variety of reviews from various publications, West Side Story has mainly positive reviews. Link. Also it is has won 10 oscars (nominated for 11), making it the musical with the most academy awards. Whether or not it truly is THE greatest would probably depend on who you ask, but our performing arts librarians will get back to you with more references.]
