  The Films of Roland West
West's films tend not to have a view point character or characters through whose eyes most of the action is seen, unlike the great majority of noirs.
West's films also resemble whodunits, in that information is often kept from the audience about the guilt or innocence of the characters till the end.
West almost always includes something parallel to the plane of the camera in these shots, whether it is a grouping of the actors, a single key actor who is being emphasized, or a background part of the set.

 West Side Story (1961)   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-04)
West Side Story (1961) is an energetic, widely-acclaimed, melodramatic musical - a modern-day, loose re-telling of Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet tragedy of feuding families, although the setting is the Upper West Side of New York City in the late 1950s.
Natalie Wood was un-nominated for West Side Story, but she was competing for a Best Actress Oscar (that she lost to Sophia Loren for Two Women) for her role in Spendor in the Grass (1961).
In the famous, dazzling opening sequence, they gradually break into a highly-stylized dance and then burst into a daring, high-stepping sequence - an exhilarating, inventive, visual ballet of pirouettes, vigorous athletic moves, and running jumps that symbolizes their dominance and energy - they are readying themselves for a gang brawl.

By the decade's end, however, federal officials were resuming their efforts to separate church and state in Utah, and the public was resuming its outcry against the Mormon practice of plural marriage.

Mann's reputation, born out of the enthusiastic appreciation of journalists at the influential film magazine Cahiers du Cinéma, rests largely on his 1940s B-thrillers and his 1950s psychological westerns, usually in collaboration with James Stewart.
This is perhaps his finest western, a magnificently staged and photographed film - few directors could match Mann's appreciation of space - at the centre of which a flawed, neurotic hero struggles to do the right thing.
