Quote

There is something that you have that no one else ever had ... When you watch Kirk's [Douglas] performance in anything, in anything he's ever done, you cannot take your eyes off of him. It's not possible to look away from him.

There are three movies that I am exceptionally proud of in my life, and I rarely commit to a list of films that I like, that I've made... but these are the three films that I was passionately connected to. The first was 'ET,' the second 'Schindler's List,' and third is 'Saving Private Ryan.'

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.

Image
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.

When my children were born, I made the choice I wanted them to be raised as Jews and to have a Jewish education.

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.

The Israeli-Palestinian conflict and Jihadism have nothing to do with each other.
Steven Spielberg
Image
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.

Steve Jobs was the greatest inventor since Thomas Edison. He put the world at our fingertips.

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.

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.

I think the greatest thing about DVD is the quality of sound and picture the real estate to put more extras on and, my favorite point is it stores quietly in very subtle places in your home .

I don't make unconventional stories I don't make non-linear stories. I like linear storytelling a lot.
