It is a story of youthful passion that gives way to one of the most celebrated filmmaking careers of our time. Since the odyssey that meant making his short film Do a Lupe, in which he had to drive the truck, as well as load and unload all the equipment, to his latest and universally acclaimed film, The Shape of Water, we witness the struggle, the hurdles, the joys, and the obsessive work methods that make Guillermo del Toro one of the most singularly authentic minds in world cinema. We are now rewarded with the definite clues to the imaginary in his cinematic universe.", "item_img_path" : "https://covers4.booksamillion.com/covers/bam/6/07/380/175/6073801750_b.jpg", "price_data" : { "retail_price" : "17.95", "online_price" : "17.95", "our_price" : "17.95", "club_price" : "17.95", "savings_pct" : "0", "savings_amt" : "0.00", "club_savings_pct" : "0", "club_savings_amt" : "0.00", "discount_pct" : "10", "store_price" : "" } }
