Spielberg's Best Flick ?

As you mentioned, you've recently watched it whereas I saw it when it originally came out & the marketing was "Steven Speilberg's Poltergeist."

As with E.T. & yet he only produced both movies.

Anyway, I'm thinking this is the horror movie, Kes' sister may have been referring too.

You need to get your facts straight, sir. Speilberg did direct E.T. It's been years since I saw it. I remember it being pretty good, though.

The best? Easily Schindler's List.

My favourite? Last Crusade, all the way.

It's one of the still unresolved stories surrounding that film - that he was the true director of it and not Tobe Hooper.

Spielberg continues to give Hooper all the credit, but many cast members talk about shooting certain days, and they felt Spielberg was the man running things on the set. The melding of their styles wasn't as seamless as Spielberg working with George Lucas on the Indiana Jones films.

According to the internet, he's credited as Producer.

A.I.

Because it had a dash of Kubrick.

Spielberg was both Director and Producer on E.T. I don't know what site could be saying he didn't direct one of his most famous & popular films.

Well IMDb says he only produced E.T. while Wiki says he was both director & producer...

*shrugs*

I looked at IMDB. His director credits have him clearly listed as director.
It's just that his producer credits come up first, is all.

Yeah, I don't like the way IMDB is organized like that.

Duel_(1971_film)

Duel is a 1971 television (and later full-length theatrical) film starring Dennis Weaver, who plays a terrified motorist stalked on a remote and lonely road by the unseen driver of a mysterious tanker truck. It was written by Richard Matheson, based on his own short story, and directed by Steven Spielberg in his feature film directing debut

i like Schindlers list of Speilberg
