Why are their names (Bernstein for music, Sondheim for lyrics) shown twice-- once near the beginning of the credits sequence, and again near the end? I think Robbins and Wise may have been listed twice, too.
Were the credits that were shown in a standard (non-graffiti) font added after the original release?
Yeah, I noticed that too and thought it was odd. The only thing I could think was that they were referencing the original play and book so they were referencing them as producing the original source material.

Credit for the original stage production; credit for the screen production. Correct.
While I thought the fact that the credits in the end were turned into graffiti was interesting, and a very fitting end to a fabulous movie, I, too wondered why the very ending credits were shown written on regular street signs, in somewhat child-like hand-writing.
shareThey are credited first for the film, then for the original stage production that this film comes from, which is why they got credited twice.
