Right?! He does so little press, and has since Newsies, that I feel like I devour all of his content 😂 he’s just such a pro in everything I’ve seen him in
SPOILER but this story is basically just Romeo and Juliet and no one doesn’t know what happens in that so anyway I just saw the movie tonight and I bawled when Riff died. I’ve always been a HUGE fan of Mike Faist and only went to see the movie initially because he was in it. This movie is quite literally my favorite movie of all time.
Lmao same Like, I feel I did know it, that I read it somewhere but the moment he was stabbed and Tony lost control to revenge him I was just so damn surprised
This movie showed me who Mike faist is, and he helped me embrace my inner theater kid I have been repressing. P.s. please forgive the crappy grammar because I'm kinda dumb 😂
@@troyannbladsacker1811same here!! Well, it was a gift from my younger Sister, but regardless, I wanted it for Ansel's Performance, above anything, or anyone else, (although Mike Faist, who Portrayed Rif and David Alvarez, who played Bernardo, come in a fairly close second)! LOL!
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. 5. I did not like the first act of the Spielberg version as much as the Robert Wise version, but the second act of Spielberg's version made up for the 1st act's shortcomings. Spielberg's first act of his movie was too, too, dark. 6. My choice for which movie was better would be the flawless *1st* West Side Story. Robert Wise was the better Director in this for 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. 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 intro music. 10. Spielberg's version of West Side Story, should be nominated for *Best Picture* Oscar this year, however from the *WOKE* Hollywood, they might choose another low budget foreign movie made with no whites in it, that nobody will see, for diversity's sake. Then that will remind me of Marxist Korean 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 didn't win Best Picture, which it should have, over that terrible love movie, again, that nobody saw. 11. Why couldn't Spielberg use any other race besides Puerto Rican? That was a racist decision on WOKE Spielberg. High class acting is art, that a great actor could pull it off. Spielberg now denies 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 as long as they looked Puerto Rican. Come on man! Spielberg trying to be WOKE is a racist to all other promising actors. 13. What was this freak dark character tranny character that used to be a tom boy girl in the Robert Wise motive? We could see in the Robert Wise movie that this was a tom boy girl. 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 tranny freak character from this years 2021 to by making the LGBTQ people happy. That demonic freak character was a bust.
Nice analysis, you took your time writing it! Why not cast Puerto Rican actors to play Puerto Rican characters? A few of the actors were of mixed race themselves with family from all over the world but they still had Puerto Rican in them, it’s better that than casting people with no Spanish speaking background let alone no Puerto Rican background. The casting of the character called anybody was pretty smart move given that the character is a girl but a complete Tom boy, they are a boy in virtually every way even though they are actually a girl. So the character can be interpreted and taken as gender fluid in today’s terms. They are ambiguous. Just like the actor who plays them even though they are trans
I'm just happy we're getting more mike faist content now.
Right?! He does so little press, and has since Newsies, that I feel like I devour all of his content 😂 he’s just such a pro in everything I’ve seen him in
Mike is so articulate
aw why does Mike shake his head when Ansel calls him an amazing dancer? haha he's incredible!
Everyone turned in star making performances. West Side Story 2021 is brilliant, thrilling and sensational. I cannot wait to see it again!
Ansel and Mike you are so fantastically talented. Crushers! Nailed it. I have seen it twice!
