    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Good movie, though, it's almost 30 years old.

    Great OP Chris!

    And I hate comedy. Though I do like comedians who take on tragic characters.


    I hate musical even worse. The idea that in the middle of things everyone bursts out singing and dancing is like wtf.

    I kind of enjoyed Cabaret but for all the wrong reasons.

    My mother likes West Side Story. When she first told me about it as a kid I was kind of interested. I was going to see some gang fights and stuff. lol
