Yeah, Jerry, I did see Beymer in another movie, one that came out before West Side Story. It was a Disney movie starring Hal Stalmaster (?), Luanna Patten, and Richard Beymer, called "Johnny Tremaine." It was about some young people involved in the "Sons Of Liberty," and the American colonies' fight for independence. He didn't have the title role, but played Johnny's buddy, so it wasn't really a miscasting, but his performance wasn't especially memorable. (The only reason I even remember the film is that I was young and had not seen all that many movies by that time in my life.)
