    Stephen Sondheim’s lyrics are as fresh and as clever as can be. How did he write so many great classic songs for one show? Brilliance.

    In real life, June Havoc (Baby June) was a huge animal lover herself and provided a home to many animals, including birds, dogs, cats, and donkeys. Also, the sisters were rather confused about exactly how old they were for many years because Mama Rose kept changing their birth years to get around child labor laws. According to her obituary in the New York Times: "Her mother reportedly carried five birth certificates for her younger daughter, to satisfy the child labor laws of every state, so June wasn't sure exactly how old she was..." In later years, June endorsed the birth year of 1912 as correct.

    An oddity of this film is that everyone thought Rosaland Russell sang her own numbers and Natalie was dubbed as she was in West Side Story. But in fact it was Rosaland who was dubbed and Natalie did all her own singing. Great number here.

    Natalie Wood did all her own singing for this movie - it didn't require a strong operatic voice as was required in her previous film WEST SIDE STORY. As for Roz Russell, who played the Mama role, most of her singing was dubbed by Lisa Kirk, although a small amount of Roz's own voice remains, such as in the song "Mr Goldstone".

      Natalie Wood had a girl-next-door kind of voice which was fine for this role, but no, the musical score of WEST SIDE STORY is vocally challenging even for a Professional Female Soprano, which Natalie was not - it's really understandable that they used an Operatic Soprano (Marni Nixon) to do the singing for her in WSS -
