Which Best Picture winner is a musical, gang-filled retelling of 'Romeo and Juliet'?
Answer West Side Story
Instead of Montagues and Capulets, the film pits the Sharks against the Jets and adds dancing. Lots and lots of dancing. The film, featuring music by Leonard Bernstein and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and choreographed by Jerome Robbins, took home a whopping 10 awards on Oscar night.
