Russ Tamblyn quotes:

I first saw 'West Side Story' on stage in 1958. I was in the army, having been conscripted while under contract to MGM. I caught the musical in New York, fell in love with it, bought the album, and memorised the whole thing.

West Side Story' was one of the high points of my career. Yet, when I first saw it, I was really disappointed in how I came off.
