that s a one and i ll never forget this and he said and that s a nine and then he crooked his arm and inverted his arm and said and see it becomes a six it s magic and now it s a nine and now it s a six and now it s a nine and now it s a six and that s really how i learned my numbers for the first time the irony of all that and the gift of that lesson never really dawned on me until i was much older 19 in 1952 his family moved to haddon township new jersey after his father was hired by rca 24 spielberg attended hebrew school from 1953 to 1957 in classes taught by rabbi albert l lewis 25 in early 1957 the family moved to phoenix arizona 26 27 spielberg had a bar mitzvah ceremony when he was thirteen 28 his family was involved in the synagogue and had many jewish friends 29 of the

difficult accepting his heritage he said it isn t something i enjoy admitting but when i was seven eight nine years old god forgive me i was embarrassed because we were orthodox jews i was embarrassed

terrified by the movie s train crash and at age 12 recreated it with his lionel trains and filmed it he recalls the trains went around and around and after a while that got boring and i had this eight millimeter camera and i staged a train wreck and filmed it that was hard on the trains but then i could cut the film lots of different ways and look at it over and over again this was his first home movie 35 36 in 1958 he became a boy scout attaining the rank of eagle scout at age 13 37 38 spielberg used his father s movie camera to make amateur features and took it along on every scout trip he

classmates it won first prize in a statewide competition 42 43 spielberg made about fifteen to twenty 8 mm adventure films 44 45 he recalls that my dad told me stories about world war ii constantly i knew based on the stories my dad and his friends were telling about world war ii that there was no glory in war and it was ugly and it was cruel it was you know visually devastating and so i thought someday if i ever do make a war movie for real it s got to be something that tells the truth about what those experiences had been for those young 17 18 19 year old boys storming omaha beach let s say 19 spielberg went to the local theater every saturday 46 formative films included victor fleming s captains courageous 1937 disney s pinocchio and fantasia both 1940 akira kurosawa s rashomon 1950 and

hitchcock s the birds 1963 and stanley kubrick s dr strangelove 1964 and 2001 a space odyssey 1968 i m still living off the adrenalin that i experienced watching that film for the first time 51 he attended arcadia high school for three years 52 he wrote and directed a science fiction film firelight funded mainly by his father it was shown in a local theater for one evening and grossed 501 against its 500 budget 53 54 55 after taking a tour bus to universal studios a chance conversation with an executive led to spielberg getting a three day pass to the premises on the fourth day he walked up to the studio gates without a pass and the security guard waved him in i basically spent the next two months at universal studios that was how i became an unofficial apprentice that summer 56 57 his family later moved to saratoga california where he attended saratoga high school 58 a year later his parents divorced spielberg moved to los angeles to stay with his father 59 while his three sisters and mother remained in saratoga he recalls his mother had a huge adventurous personality we always saw her as peter pan the kid who never wanted to grow up and she sort of saw herself that way i think my mom lived a lot of childhoods in her ninety seven years 19 he was not interested in academics aspiring only to be a filmmaker 60 he applied to the university of southern california s film school but was turned down because of his mediocre grades 61 he then applied and enrolled at california state university long beach where he became a brother of theta chi fraternity 62 in 1968 universal gave spielberg the opportunity to write and direct a short film for theatrical release the 26 minute 35 mm amblin studio vice president sidney sheinberg was impressed and offered spielberg a seven year directing contract 63 a year later he dropped out of college to begin directing television productions for universal 64 making him the youngest director to be signed to a long term plan with a major hollywood studio 65 he recalls a formative encounter with one of his favorite filmmakers john ford who said so they tell me you want to be a picture maker you see those paintings around the office spielberg said he did ford pointed to a painting and asked where s the horizon spielberg said it was at the top ford asked him where it was in another painting spielberg said it was at the bottom ford said when you re able to distinguish the art of the horizon at the bottom of a frame or at the top of the frame but not going right through the center of the frame when you can appreciate why it s at the top and why it s at the bottom you might make a pretty good picture maker 66 career 1969 1974 on the horizon spielberg s professional debut was eyes 1969 a night gallery segment scripted by rod serling and starring joan crawford 67 initially there was skepticism from crawford and studio executives regarding spielberg s inexperience his initial contributions received mixed responses leading spielberg to briefly step back from studio work 68 crawford reflecting on her collaboration with spielberg recognized his potential noting his unique intuitive inspiration she expressed her appreciation for spielberg s talent in a note to him and communicated her approval to serling crawford s endorsement highlighted spielberg s early recognition in hollywood despite hesitations regarding his experience 69 he was hired to do the segment make me laugh he recalled i came on the set and because it was only 11 minutes long i had this idea of shooting the whole 11 minutes in one shot but i staged the whole thing across four sets in one shot storyboarded it rehearsed it everybody was excited about it and then when the executives sat down to watch the rushes the next day they saw the entire 10 minute take of most of the show and they were appalled 70 in the early 1970s spielberg unsuccessfully tried to raise financing for his own low budget films he co wrote and directed teleplays for marcus welby m d the name of the game columbo owen marshall counselor at law and the psychiatrist 71 the columbo episode directed was the show s inaugural non pilot episode murder by the book 72 although unsatisfied with his work 73 spielberg used the opportunity to hone his craft he earned good reviews and impressed producers he was earning a steady income and relocated to laurel canyon la 71 spielberg s directorial debut was duel 1971 adapted from richard matheson s short story about a salesman dennis weaver being chased down a highway by a psychotic tanker truck driver 74 executives decided to promote the film on television reviews were positive and universal asked spielberg to shoot more scenes so it could be released theatrically 75 deservedly so writes david thomson for it stands up as one of the medium s most compelling spirals of suspense the ordinariness of the dennis weaver character and the monstrous malignance of the truck confront one another with a narrative assurance that never needs to remind us of the element of fable 12 spielberg described it as godzilla vs bambi 76 duel aired on barry diller s abc movie of the week before its theatrical release 77 78 more tv films followed something evil 1972 which aired on cbs 79 and savage 1973 which aired on nbc 80 spielberg made his theatrical debut with the sugarland express 1974 based on a true story of a married couple goldie hawn and william atherton on the run desperate to regain custody of their baby from foster parents 81 the film marked the first of many collaborations with composer john williams 82 it was awarded best screenplay at the 1974 cannes film festival 83 but was not a commercial success 84 which spielberg blamed on universal s inconsistent marketing 85 pauline kael wrote spielberg uses his gifts in a very free and easy american way for humor and for a physical response to action he could be that rarity among directors a born entertainer perhaps a new generation s howard hawks 86 the hollywood reporter wrote that a major new director is on the horizon 87 1975 1980 magician poster for jaws 1975 producers richard d zanuck and david brown took a chance by giving spielberg the opportunity to direct jaws 1975 a thriller based on peter benchley s bestseller in it a great white shark attacks beachgoers at a resort town prompting police chief martin brody roy scheider to hunt it with the help of a marine biologist richard dreyfuss and a veteran shark hunter robert shaw jaws was the first film shot on open ocean 88 so shooting proved difficult especially when the mechanical shark malfunctioned the shooting schedule overran by a hundred days and universal threatened to cancel production 89 against expectations jaws was a success setting the domestic box office record and making spielberg a household name 90 it won academy awards for best film editing verna fields academy award for best original score john williams and best sound robert hoyt roger heman earl madery and john carter 91 spielberg said the malfunctioning mechanical shark resulted in a better movie as he had to find other ways to suggest the villain s presence kael called it the most cheerfully perverse scare movie ever made adding it s funny in a woody allen way she quoted alfred hitchcock as saying spielberg thought outside the visual dynamics of the theater he s the first one of us who doesn t think in terms of the proscenium arch with him there s nothing but the camera lens 92 like coppola on the godfather spielberg asserted his own role and deftly organized the elements into a roller coaster entertainment without sacrificing inner meanings the suspense of the picture came from meticulous technique and good humor about its own surgical cutting you have only to submit to the travesty of jaws 2 to realize how much more engagingly spielberg saw the ocean the perils the sinister beauty of the shark and the vitality of its human opponents critic david thompson 12 after declining an offer to make jaws 2 93 spielberg and dreyfuss reunited to work on a film about ufos close encounters of the third kind 1977 spielberg used 65 mm
