Happy Valentine’s Day! Patrick has been very excited to see the new West Side Story, because he loves both the 1961 film and the stage version, but then Lolo said she wasn’t sure she’s ever seen it at all!!! And you know what that means - this week on First Timers Movie Club Patrick and Lolo watch the original West Side Story. Listen as they discuss one of the most winning-est films the Academy Awards has ever seen, compare this reimagining of the classic Shakespeare with the play that inspired it; “Romeo and Juliet”, discuss the changes made bringing this musical from stage to screen as well as hear Patrick’s list of sitcom recommendations and a grievance he has with the film industry in this moment.
