Cell phones tend to bring us more inside of our lives whereas movies offer a chance to escape, so there are two competing forces.

The only thing that gets me back to directing is good scripts.

I love editing. It's one of my favorite parts about filmmaking.
Steven Spielberg

I think we need to take responsibility for the things we put on this planet, and also take responsibility for the things we take off the planet. We need to have limiters on how far we allow ourselves to go - ethical, moral limiters.

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.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I still have pretty much the same fears I had as a kid. I'm not sure I'd want to give them up a lot of these insecurities fuel the movies I make.

The older I get, the more I look at movies as a moving miracle.

People have forgotten how to tell a story. Stories don't have a middle or an end any more. They usually have a beginning that never stops beginning.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I think documentaries are the greatest way to educate an entire generation that doesn't often look back to learn anything about the history that provided a safe haven for so many of us today.

I turned down 'Harry Potter' and 'Spider-Man,' two movies that I knew would be phenomenally successful, because I had already made movies like that before and they offered no challenge to me. I don't need my ego to be reminded.
