• If October thrills aren’t your thing, the terrific Rita Moreno documentary, “Rita Moreno: Just a Girl Who Decided to Go for It,” arrived Tuesday on Netflix. The 89-year-old talks candidly about what it was like trying to carve out a career as a Puerto Rican in the 1950s and ’60s when she was regularly cast as any ethnic minority that the film needed, including Native American, Polynesian or Egyptian. She also goes into the fact that she didn’t exactly benefit from an Oscar career boost after her historic win for playing Anita in “West Side Story.” Anyone who loves Hollywood and film history would do well to check it out.
