Jul 26, 2008 - I think it's just a dance they coreographed for the movie. Sweet, innocent, and ellogent, perfect for a first meeting of love. I've memorized the dance though : )

Jul 26, 2008 - i think its beautiful.i've tried to learn it but i can't. haha.do you know if thats really the mambo they do?

WDWExplorer Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I have no idea if it's a mambo to be honest...sorry. I'll try looking it up when I have time today and I'll get back to you : )

WDWExplorer Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Okay, the dance that Maria and Tony do isn't the mambo. I couldn't find any name for it. I think it was just a simple coreographed dance.

PretiexNxPunk Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - hahahaha.not the dance Maria and Tony do.the dance that every one else does.they yell mambo then start dancing, are they really doing the mambo?

WDWExplorer Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Ooooohh. Ha ha! Whoops :P I think elements of it are mambo steps, and other parts are just coreographed to look cool :P

Jul 26, 2008 - my theater is doin this play this summer. i'm sooo excited. the only thing that sucks is that i'm a jet girl and only in 3 scenes. i love this dance a lot. the only big difference is that we have a lot more lifts then these guys.

Jul 26, 2008 - the first time i watched this move, and even now, i still think the hispanics are better at dancing in this movie, the have the "umpth" the americans didn't have

Jul 26, 2008 - I love this movie. This is one of my favorite scenes. I swear the guy dancing with the chick in the blue dress at 0:38 looks like Matt LeBlanc, Joey from Friends. I have always thought that!

Dreamer00 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Very true.

eviltree997 Says:

melonitis Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - mi escena favorita,adoro esta película;aquí nuestra Rita Moreno-puertorriqueña ganó un oscar-la película tambien ganó varios oscares;cada vez que la estan dando pot TV vuelvo a ver la película.El argunmento es el conflicto de las gangas americanas contra los puertorriqueños,en tiempos de la emigración del puertoriqueñ en busca del sueño americano que se covierte en pesadilla.

Jul 26, 2008 - It couldn't be. The movie version of WSS was made in 1961. FRIENDS came in the 1990s.

jazzsingerlady Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I've always felt that- to me it almost seems intentional on the part of the director/ choreographer that their dance not only had that "umph" you mention, but it also brought a level of class and a history that the pop-cultured Americans did not have.

Jul 26, 2008 - MY favorite movie !I think I saw it at least 15 times

sargeanthulka Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - For me, this is the scene where West Side Story takes that turn towards cinematic masterpiece. It is just perfect.
