Technology can be our best friend, and technology can also be the biggest party pooper of our lives.

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.

My head's not in the clouds, but I think I've gotten too much credit for being an astute businessman.
Steven Spielberg
Image
I have to stay interested. I can't do the same thing over and over again, which is why I don't do - I've made sequels, but it's the movies that are not sequels that I enjoy the most.

Before statehood was achieved, Syria and Egypt had their tanks and military equipment lined up to invade Tel Aviv and destroy it but the Israelis scrambled together an air force, some of it from old Second World War Messerschmidts, and the invasion was halted.

I was fifteen, or sixteen. I was in high school. I was spending a summer in California with my second cousins. And I wanted to be a director really bad. I was making a lot of 8mm home movies, since I was twelve, making little dramas and comedies with the neighborhood kids.

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

Movies are always in a state of locomotion. You start with a general idea of how it should feel and then you find you've got a runaway train. You have to race to catch up: the movie is telling you what it wants to become, and when that happens there's no greater feeling.
