Bravo Mr Spielberg 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
I just realized something about this song, when Tony says "Tonight there will be no morning star." He's right because he dies that night and never sees the sun again.
Wonderful singing your heart, Ansel
The transition from Rita singing while putting on stockings, to Ariana singing in the church... MMM. They both deserved their Oscars man...
Hearing Marni Nixon and Rachel Zegler sing as Maria together made me tear up a little bit, not gonna lie.
IMHO, The best musical ever.
Jeez, I've watched this easily four or five times and still get goosebumps at the final sequence showing everyone from both movies. Really, really well done.
I love it! It’s double quintet with all of them.
Thank you so much! So happy you liked it. Should have called it the "Tonight Dectet" (meaning 10 musicians or singers).
@@MaxHechtman oh yeah maybe. Thanks fot this video. And the one with america i watch everytime.
Thanks for this REALLY creative, innovative spin on the Quintet Song!
It's always been one of my favorites in the entire Movie, Show, Story and this "take" is SO clever and avant garde!
@@MaxHechtman Or ten groups of/singers.
@@MaxHechtman A dectet across 6 decades.
What's unique is how "America" in the remake was brightened up, while the original was mostly dark with blacks, purples, and deep reds. Yet, for "Tonight", the remake switched from BRIGHT reds to more dark blues. Instead of police light hues, he goes for smoke and shadows.
Nice observation
Chills!!! The Quintet is one of my favorite numbers, not only in the show, but in all theater music. The music is sensational, coupled with Steven Sondheim’s lyrics... I never get tired of this.
It's so true. It's one of his best numbers anywhere. So amazing to see it performed live ... but the movie versions give me chills just the same.
The quintet is magnificent. It is musically complex and intricate and a delight to the ear. I never tire of it. ❤️🎼
All of the West Side Story is wonderful, but there is something particularly special about this song... when everyone is singing their separate parts together. It's beautiful!!
Yes the quintet segment really catches the feeling of excitement building up with the tension!
I usually don't like "super cuts" especially when it comes to material that I love and know very well. But your editing is beyond excellent (on both this video and "America"). No performance or lyric or note of music was sacrificed. Well done.
Even when they don’t use certain ones the transition is so 😊 I just let it slide or it is a good reason to hear something else instead.
I will never get tired of this quintet
I wanted to applaud Spielberg as soon as I saw Anita’s part. They managed to transform the most awkward and dehumanising part into the most ironic and hilarious one. And Maria not being passive and walking just like Tony gives another powerful dimension
You thought Anita was dehumanizing before??
@@thefirstbourne149 not the character but the representation of her character in that scene from the 61 version was insulting. The hypersexualized Latina trope is tiring. I loved how suddenly human Ariana DeBose’s portrayal was after all the violence of the rumble. After mostly showing her fierce, admirable personality and beauty, Spielberg showed her as an human being that goes through so many emotions, which is rare to see when it’s a woman of colour at the centre of the movie.
@@thefirstbourne149 they never said that
You don't need to apologize for Rita Moreno--being brilliant, beautiful, sexy, and magnetic is not, repeat not, dehumanizing. The creators of the original film knew what they were doing when they cast her. And that doesn't mean I don't think Ariana DeBose is magnificent; she is. Rita Moreno couldn't be "awkward" if she tried. Phooey on the "competition." They're both winners.
Hang on, folks: Rita HERSELF was not happy with the choices made for her--the make-up, the phony accent (esp. in her over-dubbed Boy Like That), but men were in charge, so...I think having ground-breakers like Kushner involved in the current version must have helped. Maybe I was too young to get it in the '60s, but I wept through the Spielberg one.
Just love Mike Faist.
your sarcasm is delicious!!
The '21 version has more action, riding the subway, the scene in the church where Anita sings and is hushed, a lot of clever Spielberg interventions! But the music is absolutely the same as the Bernstein children required!
This is such a masterful blend of the two versions that highlights each of their strengths. Both movies are masterpieces in my opinion
Yes, they are. And I think it’s because Robert Wise and Spielberg seem to come from a similar school of visually expansive filmmaking.
DOUBLE WOW!!!
Brilliant
Dying to see one with the Mambo scene!
I got goosebumps and eargasm listening to this. You're fantastic.
EARGASM! YOU MADE THAT UP AND IT IS EPIC!
Eargasm 💀
This is so great. I’ve been flipping back and forth from one movie to the other on HBO MAX ever since they came on. Can’t believe Spielberg and the movie itself didn’t win Oscars.
IT DID WAKE UP ARIANA WON BEST SUPPORTING ACTOR
That last part of all ten of them was amazing
To me, this video is just perfect evidence that both versions of this film are brilliant. There were enough differences in the remake that it didn't feel cheap or unoriginal, but not so many that it felt like they were dishonoring the '61 version. I'm really excited to see what DeBose and Faist do moving forward.
RIP Natalie Wood & Tucker Smith
Now imagine if you added the 1957 Original Broadway Version with these two, and then you would get the ultimate mashup!
Sounds like a challenge! Looking forward to hearing that!!!
That is IF footage of the original Broadway show exists.
@@hunterolaughlin I meant just add it audio-wise, but if there truly is footage of the original performance, it would be nice to add that as well!
Unbelievable, that was perfect, 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾 from the best musical of all time
I think this is one of the best edits I've ever seen on a CZcams video, seeing how the 10 protagonists get together and sing together is so fantastic and that's so nostalgic and beautiful
a standing ovation, sir!
This was PHENOMENAL!!!!
The best of both versions!
phenomenal!!!!!! you're incredible at picking what to show and when !!
I have literally been looking for something like this since I saw the movie before Christmas!
Oh, bless you for the latest supercut. Once again, we are blessed by all this talent onscreen.
I loved this so much especially at the ending where they all sang “Tonight” very strong and powerful!!!! Thanks for making this! ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I do love that eerie dark red glow in the original version when the gangs are on their way--I tell you what, Spielberg's version is brilliant and I love it, but the 1961 version didn't win 10 Oscars for nothing! It's a masterpiece for the ages.
My whole body is tingling like crazy. Epic combo! 😍
a remarkable editing .
Chills. I was born in 1961. This is brilliant! Thank you!
Genius!!!!
whoever did this, did an amazing job. I played Tony when I was a kid, a Jewish kid from the bronx who couldn't dance well, but the mash up was perfect.... cheers...
You took my breath away with this. Beyond fantastic!
Combined like that it's all so tense but all so beautiful, watch it just to be caught up in the drama even though we know what's going to happen
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen
WE NEED A BALCONY SCENE SUPERCUT! THIS IS AMAZING!!
Fabulous
chills. absolutely chills .
I would never dislike this even if it was an accidental. This is just perfect since I love both the original and the remake. I hope I can see the actual stage play someday in the pantages.
The beginning of the song with the gangs singing is just my favorite part of the song. I’m not even joking.
That was fantastic! Well done!!
Now I want to think that both movies were actually happening at the exact time in different parts of the city and they were both just completely oblivious to one another the entire time.
I got goosebumps 😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨😮💨
Awesome! Loved both films. Loved the juxtaposition of so many scenes.
Thank you for posting I saw West Side story in 1961 I can remember coming out of the cinema like I was floating on air still love this film today ❤
This video was the best I’ve seen in terms of comparisons of old versions of movies to new ones… usually you just get a typical side by side comparison- I loved how you included verses from each individual/group that performed the song and interposed them.. even the clips from the movies, they weren’t confusing or bouncing around coming and going too quick… very nicely done!!!
Absolutely masterful editing on your part! Completely intoxicating and chill-inducing! Bravo!
These super cuts do the one thing most needed, and that is to compare two absolutely perfect films. I liked the street ballet so much in 1960, but the Jets in 2021 are just ugly street thugs. They truly represent the power of organized hate. The Sharks do little better, but are somehow more human. The orchestral performances are full, loud, and the voices are support. Arianna DeBoise was worthy successor to her goddess, RitaMoreno. Mike Feist was at the top of his character. All the vocalists were amazing.
Wow what a great job of putting two fantastic movies together. Thanks for this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Your West Side mashups make me emotional. As a former chorus/theater kid, this musical brings back so many good memories and to this day I love both versions. Seeing them together like this, I can't help but get emotional and have a huge smile on my face. THANK YOU
I LOVE THE WAY "THEY" MIX THESE FROM ORIGINAL 1961 MOVIE WITH THE 2021 MOVIE! IT IS FLAWLESS. I LOVE IT! IT IS GREAT, EXCELLENT!
I love this supercut!! The transitions between both Tony's, and everyone overlapping at the end gave me chills! Also in the beginning with the Jets, switching from 1961 to 2021! This was very well done, gonna watch it over and over!
Perfection!
This is some great editing and the subtitles are amazing!
the low harmony at 0:51.. absolutely gorgeous
Wow! This is the best number from the best musical ever, and what a tribute you've made! I still haven't seen the Speilberg version, and I can't wait!
THE BEST MIX EVER!!! THAT ENDING WOW!!!!
The result of the brilliantly done intercutting is to double the excitement of this complex, innovative musical quintet, which is in itself a milestone in the history of musical theater.
This is fantastic.... Great job
Glad you like it!
This was a masterful supercut. Bravo, bravo, bravo!
ok mixing both versions made it much more epic
Half a century between these two great works, and they both hold up, even when intertwined. Masterful.
Such a great mix😊
This was incredible. Thank you.
I AM CRYING! THIS IS SO GOOD! OMG
This is a MASTERPIECE! Simply phenomenal!
Fantástic, extraordinary , without words
Good job Max! Seamless editing. I love the raw power of Quintet, the collision of all that longing and desire.
OH MY GOD!!!!! You are FABULOUS. Thank you Thank you Thank you!
I grew up watching the 1961 film (I was born in 2004) but since the 2021 version came out... I prefer the 2021 version🖤🖤
An incredibly complex and compelling ensemble number unlike anything ever attempted on the Broadway stage before or since.
...by the great Leonard Bernstein, of course
I absolutely LOVE this film and in so many ways. The operatic Deutsche Gramophone recording from 1985 that Bernstein did with Kiri TeKanawa, Jose Carreras, Tatiana Troyanos, et al, is one of the BEST recordings ever, PERIOD. Such talent! The documentary is even better. I had the unique privilege of seeing Marni Nixon perform at my Alma mater in the '70s. OMG, I remember it to this day. Lenny was a bloody genius and I truly hope that Bradley Cooper will do him justice in the new film.
Brilliant!
Fascinating!
Thank you for compiling all this brilliance, beauty, and drama! :)
Holy crap, is that perfect.
To hell with the comparisons, it's one rousing piece of music.
I love good brass.
Wow, you done well bro. Lots of love from Holland
So emotional, thank you for making this out!
Excellet is a mere Word. I cannot describe how much I like this masterpiece of edition. Thanks for gracing CZcams with your art.
Best "supercut" I have ever seen., Granted, great material to work with, but so skillfully edited, it really is a masterclass in film editing. A pure joy. I edited movie trailers for 30 years and it's wonderful to be reminded how exhilarating a well edited piece can be. Bravo.
I'm pretty biased regarding the West Side Stories, but this super cut made me forget it for a while. Good job, man!
AMAZING AMAZING WORK
this needs more views! perfectly made
Masterful edit of the hallmark moment in musical theater and perhaps all screen musical history. Bravo, well done, Sir. 🌠
This is absolutely incredible
This is amazing! Thank you. I think I will watch it again.
Excellent montage! ❤
ABSOLUTELY AMAZING
The best!
For some reason my tears don't stop.
It's surprising that the tempo is the same as the movie 60 years ago,
Above all, Bernstein's songs and Sondheim's lyrics don't fade.
Thank you for making this video.
This is the best performance I've ever witnessed. That's why it's my favorite.
Oh my godness !!!!! This is so perfect ! Whow !!!
the editing on this is fantabulous!
This gave me chills! Amazing cut showing the absolute talent of both casts! Well done!
