Director Steven Spielberg decided to retell West Side Story, probably the most famous musical of all time. He used the ingenious music of Leonard Bernstein and handsome young actors (Ansel Elgort, Rachel Zegler, Ariana DeBose). Even critics acknowledge that the film was quite successful despite some reservations, but viewers refuse to go to the cinema.

World agencies are already reporting that viewers do not even go to America. The film, which cost about $ 100 million, earned only $ 10 million in a decisive premiere weekend in North American cinemas, which the producers did not expect.

The failure of the American story of love and the war of gangs surprised someone, but on the other hand it is characteristic of the Covid era. Viewers haven’t been to the cinema for a long time. The most successful film of the weekend Klan Gucci currently has 10,737 viewers, Wishes to Santa has 10,195 and Encanto 6954 viewers.
