I'm very used to working with first time actors - you can just look back at 'E.T.' with Drew Barrymore, and Christian Bale from 'Empire of the Sun,' who'd never made a movie before.

Whether in success or in failure, I'm proud of every single movie I've ever directed.

I've always been interested in UFOs.

You know, I don't really do that much looking inside me when I'm working on a project. Whatever I am becomes what that film is. But I change you change.

In '83, not only was there no such thing as performance motion capture technology, there was no such thing as digital animation. This was the analog era.

There is a fine line between censorship and good taste and moral responsibility.

I love history. It was the only thing I did well at in school. I'm not ashamed to admit that I was not a good student but I was great at history.

Not every movie, in my opinion, should be in 3D. There are a lot of stories I wouldn't shoot in 3D. But, you know, there are movies that are perfect in 3D.

I love to go to a regular movie theater, especially when the movie is a big crowd-pleaser. It's much better watching a movie with 500 people making noise than with just a dozen.

In high school, I got smacked and kicked around. Two bloody noses. It was horrible.
Steven Spielberg
Image
When I don't have a movie, I don't take a job just for the sake of working. I just sit it out until I find something I'm passionate about.

I made 'Empire of the Sun' in Shanghai in the 1980s and want to come back one day to make a movie in China.

I wanted to do another movie that could make us laugh and cry and feel good about the world. I wanted to do something else that could make us smile. This is a time when we need to smile more and Hollywood movies are supposed to do that for people in difficult times.

I've learned there are a lot of people that don't want to believe the Holocaust ever happened because it doesn't fit their other beliefs and so they deny it and it makes them sleep better at night to do so. But it makes the Holocaust survivors sleep better at night to know that we've given them a voice.

As a Jew I am aware of how important the existence of Israel is for the survival of us all. And because I am proud of being Jewish, I am worried by the growing anti-Semitism and anti-Zionism in the world.

I had to get over my fear of running through the world naked and learn to say 'take me or leave me.'

My problem is that my imagination won't turn off. I wake up so excited I can't eat breakfast. I've never run out of energy. It's not like OPEC oil I don't worry about a premium going on my energy. It's just always been there. I got it from my mom.

You shouldn't dream your film, you should make it!

Because television doesn't offer the kind of budget that a movie offers, you've got to be a little more careful where you spend the money to put the fiction in science.

I've discovered I've got this preoccupation with ordinary people pursued by large forces.
