Answer: 'Funny Girl'

From the song 'My Man'.

2. 'We ain't no delinquents, we're misunderstood. Deep down inside us there is good'!

Answer: 'West Side Story'

From the song 'Gee, Officer Krupke'--which was in the wrong spot in the movie. In the stage play it was sung in the second act, after the rumble, and 'Cool' was sung by Riff in the first act. The directors thought that such an upbeat song was out of place in the second act, so they transposed the two songs. 'I Feel Pretty' was also in the second act.

Answer: 'Finian's Rainbow'

From the song 'Old Devil Moon'.

4. 'With one look, I'll be me'.
