West Side Story: new behind-the-scenes music video

Steven Spielberg tells the choreography that such a production requires in this featurette.

20th Century Studios has launched a brand new featurette around the highly anticipated West Side Story, the new film adaptation of Irving Shulman, by the director Steven spielberg. A classic of Broadway musicals, which will offer a great show choreographed with meticulousness.

And that’s precisely the theme of this new promo video, which offers a behind-the-scenes look at rehearsals and recording sessions. We hear Spielberg talk about the long months of production, the work on the dance, on the music with the New York Philharmonic, but also with his actors, who must push the song, as in this new interpretation of the song. “Somewhere (There’s a Place For Us)” heard below.

West Side Story will be released on December 8, 2021 at theaters in France.
