One of the most memorable musical numbers in film history, Star of the Month Rita Moreno shines as Anita in WEST SIDE STORY ('61). Moreno significantly influenced the number by changing the initial lyrics in "America" to portray Puerto Rico more favorably. The song remains a pervasive reference in pop culture from GLEE to the SIMPSONS. See Moreno's Oscar winning performance tonight at 8pm ET. | Turner Classic Movies: TCM
