The top mistakes in West Side Story http://www.moviemistakes.com/film1594 en Sat, 04 Feb 2012 06:56:12 +0000 11691 During the opening overture, right when the orchestra starts "Maria", you can hear someone sneeze in the background. It's easier to hear on the soundtrack but you still can hear it in the movie. 63608 When Maria is hitting Tony while saying "Killer," her hair is across her left cheek. In the next shot, it is completely away from her face. 13281 Near the end of the movie, when Maria (Natalie Wood) is kneeling over Tony's (Richard Beymer) dead body, watch the cross around her neck. first it's sort of tucked into the top of her dress, then it is on the outside. it goes back and forth several times. 11530 In the fighting scene between the "Jets" and the "Sharks" towards the beginning, when Bernardo cuts Baby-Jon on the cheek, the cut clearly switches from one cheek to the other between the time of him being cut, to when speaking to the police officers. 71622 During "Cool," there's a shot where they're doing a sort of knee turn, and you can see Tucker Smith in the background spinning too many times (you can see him start to stick out his arms to stop himself).
