This week, we spin up the time machine and head back to 1961 to have a look around and watch the second highest-grossing movie: West Side Story with Christophe Davidson! We go over a sneaky cold war spy ring led by a Russian pretending to be Gord the Gumball salesman before diving into a classic musical about street gangs, racism and lateral violence! Also love I guess.
