I once said that CGI makes you less inventive. At the time I was bemoaning the loss of the practical stunt. If a stunt can be done practically and safely, I'd rather do it old-style.

More quotes by Steven Spielberg
Audrey gave more than she ever got. The whole world is going to miss her.
Steven Spielberg
I usually do about five cuts as a director. I haven't ever directed a film where I haven't made five passes through the movie, and that takes a long time.
Steven Spielberg
Godzilla was the most masterful of all dinosaur movies because it made you believe it was really happening.
Steven Spielberg
When I was very young, I remember my mother telling me about a friend of hers in Germany, a pianist who played a symphony that wasn't permitted, and the Germans came up on stage and broke every finger on her hands. I grew up with stories of Nazis breaking the fingers of Jews.
Steven Spielberg
Lincoln believed in the American people.
Steven Spielberg
I feel like Ive been engaged to the British Empire since 1980 and tonight you have given me the ring knighthood.
Steven Spielberg
I see some parallels between then [Lincoln's era] and now. Certainly the division of ideologies between two parties, the Democratic Party and the Republican Party. In 1865, the Democrats were the Conservatives and the Republicans were the progressives, and today it's just the opposite.
Steven Spielberg
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
All those horrible, traumatic years I spent as a kid became what I draw from creatively today.
Steven Spielberg
A lot of the films I've made probably could have worked just as well 50 years ago, and that's just because I have a lot of old-fashion values.
Steven Spielberg
Lincoln's leadership is based on a number of precepts, but my favorite one is that he acted in the name, and for the good, of the people.
Steven Spielberg
This is a time when we need to smile more and Hollywood movies are supposed to do that for people in difficult times.
Steven Spielberg
Casting sometimes is fate and destiny more than skill and talent, from a director's point of view.
Steven Spielberg
It's still a mystery to me, but even though my mother was like an older sister to me, I kind of put her up on a pedestal.
Steven Spielberg
You shouldn't dream your film, you should make it!
Steven Spielberg
I just had a crazy, wild imagination all my life, and science fiction is the greatest outlet for me.
Steven Spielberg
I think every film I make that puts characters in jeopardy is me purging my own fears, sadly only to re-engage with them shortly after the release of the picture. I'll never make enough films to purge them all.
Steven Spielberg
'E.T.' began with me trying to write a story about my parents' divorce.
Steven Spielberg
I'm 62 years old. Am I old enough to win a lifetime achievement award? Yes, I am. Thank you very much.
Steven Spielberg
Before I go off and direct a movie, I always look at four films. They tend to be The Seven Samurai, Lawrence Of Arabia, It's A Wonderful Life and The Searchers.
