Reviewed: West Side Story, Encounter Trivia: Spielberg Movie Cast Trivia Celebrating This Month: Bradley Cooper Sponsored by: Overcast

What a cheerful way to kick off the holidays. Doomed Romances (queue the Lady Gaga). This week on CinemaJaw, in honor of the new take on the classic musical from Steven Spielberg WEST SIDE STORY, we are taking a dive into those ill-fated relationships that are not going to end well.

Joining us is a man who has had a decidedly UN-doomed romance with film for several decades!

He is also a filmmaker, programmer of Black World Cinema, and board member of Chicago Filmmakers, has a film that will be screening at the Firehouse Cinema on 12/11 called “Chameleon Street” (trailer below).

Everyone get out and see Chameleon Street, and avoid those Doomed Romances if you can!
