Fathering is a major job, but I need both things in my life: my job to be a director, and my kids to direct me.
Steven Spielberg

I think every movie I've made after 'Indiana Jones,' I've tried to make every single movie as if it was made by a different director, because I'm very conscious of not wanting to impose a consistent style on subject matter that is not necessarily suited to that style. So I try to re-invent my own eye every time I tackle a new subject.

And I may often question choices I make as a producer. But I've never questioned the choices I make as a director.

[The way Stanley Kubrick] tells a story is antithetical to the way we are accustomed to receiving stories.
Steven Spielberg

I can't describe it, what I'm feeling and what I'm thinking. This means something. This is important.
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.
