Ask most film fans and one would likely include at least some of Steven Spielberg’s filmography as part of their crucial, formative years in movie-watching. In the latest episode of 60 Minutes, they attempt to take on the reverse and see how the famous blockbuster director’s formative years have echoed throughout his career. While they touch on his upcoming Lincoln, most of the interview dissects the relationship (or lack thereof) with his father and the ripple effect in many of his films, from E.T. to War of the Worlds.
He goes on to talk about how action “doesn’t attract” him anymore, which I wonder what that means for his upcoming Robopocalypse. I also embedded a second video, including Daniel Day-Lewis, where he gives more details on Lincoln, including how they recorded the exact watch Lincoln wore, John Williams‘ score (which you can also hear a preview of below) and much more. Check out both videos below.
Lincoln hits theaters on November 9th.
