章節(jié)摘錄
The soundtrack album made more money than any other album before it. The film ranked No. 41 on American Film Institutes list of greatest American movies, No. 2 on its list of best musicals and No. 3 on its list of the best romantic American movies. On the list of the greatest songs from American movies, "Tonight" ranked No. 59, "America" ranked No. 35, and "Somewhere" ranked No. 20. The film has been deemed "culturally significant" by the United States Library of Congress and was selected for preservation in the National Film Registry in 1997. Larry Kert, who originated the role of Tony, was 30 around the time of the production, and the producers wanted actors who looked believable as teenagers. Carol Lawrence, at 29, was considered too old for Maria. This caused some controversy and dissatisfaction when people learned she had been passed over in favor of a new actress. Only Tony Mordente (Action in the film) and George Chakiris (Bernardo in the film) were invited to act in the film version. Elvis Presley was originally approached for Tony. However, his manager, Colonel Parker, strongly believed the role to be wrong for Elvis and made him decline in favor of other movie musicals. When the movie became a hit and earned ten Oscars, Elvis later regretted giving up the part. He was only one of many young stars that were in consideration for the role of Tony. Several Hollywood men auditioned for the part. Bobby Darin made a strong impression on the producers at his audition and was, at one point, in talks for the role. However, he turned it down due to his concert and recording commitments. Tab Hunter, then 30, and Butt Reynolds, nearly 26, were also considered, due to their Broadway and singing credits, but they were dismissed as being too old. Robert Wise originally chose Warren Beatty for the role, figuring that youth was more important than experience. Ultimately, former child-actor Richard Beymer, who was the most unlikely of the candidates, won the part of Tony.
