22 Best Dance Scenes

Film: WEST SIDE STORY
Director: Jerome Robbins, Robert Wise
Actors: Natalie Wood, Richard Beymer, Rita Moreno,
George Chakiris, Russ Tamblyn, Tucker Smith, Tony Mordente,
Jose De Vega, David Winters, Eliot Feld
Year: 1961

It's my pick for the second greatest movie musical of all time (you'll find out my top choice later). "West Side Story" is a masterpiece, with a beautiful story (an adaptation of "Romeo and Juliet"), a tremendous cast, amazing songs, and choreography that still holds strong today. This sequence is the first of two I've picked from this flick.
