Here's one way to view it: West Side Story is likely Robert Wise's best movie. But it's absolutely not Spielberg's best movie.
Edit: There are arguments to be made for The Haunting and The Day the Earth Stood Still.

Robert Wise made some good movies in his time, no doubt. Here's one way to view it: West Side Story is likely Robert Wise's best movie. Excuse me?

West Side Story, The Day the Earth Stood Still, The Sound of Music.
Now pit those against Raiders of the Lost Ark, Saving Private Ryan, and Jaws. It's not even close.

Some of Spielberg shots trending in light of the Bullitt news.
This thread is a great read. Love when GDT is enthusiastic about other films.

That's actually kinda funny. Sad and shitty for her, I mean come on get Spielberg on the horn so he can get this taken care of in five minutes, but kinda funny nonetheless.
