Tony is a very difficult character to cast, I've never seen any actor nail it, but I think Elgort got closer than Beymer. I really didn't like "Gee Officer Krupke" in the remake, the number was much funnier in the original. The other number I preferred in the original was "Cool"...I think the choreography in the original is breathtaking. On the other hand, I did like the position of "Cool" in the story. As a storytelling tool, I think it worked better in the remake.
I agree that the choreography in the original is better than the remake. Also, "Gee Officer Krupke" is funnier in the original, but I like both versions. I thought it was a nice change having it in the police department, where they made a mess, and left.
But the bottom line is that even though I think the original is a better movie, (and one of the best movie musicals ever made), I like both versions of the movie.
