West Side Story: The Making of the Steven Spielberg Film provides exclusive in-depth commentary on these themes, bringing together a chorus of diverse voices to explore what it means to find a place for yourself in America.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: 1419750631\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.1419750631.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Bouzereau, Laurent|20th Century Studios\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Gently used with minimal wear on the corners and cover.
