Steven Spielberg attends NYFF screening of 'Spielberg'; admits to having opinions on Weinstein

(6 Oct 2017) STEVEN SPIELBERG ATTENDS NYFF SCREENING OF 'SPIELBERG' DOC; ADMITS TO HAVING OPINIONS ON WEINSTEIN Steven Spielberg admits he has opinions over the Harvey Weinstein scandal, but felt that the red carpet for a documentary on his life was not the right place to share them. The Oscar-winning director posed with his family and director Susan Lacy Thursday (5 OCTOBER) for the world premiere of "Spielberg" at the New York Film Festival. The documentary provides a rarely seen glimpse into the filmmaker's genius from his childhood to his current superstardom. So how does the filmmaker feel about being the subject of a film? "The first thing that goes through my mind is that I cannot wait to get back where I belong behind the camera. But in this case, it's only because of Susan I stepped in front of the camera to tell a whole bunch of stories that Susan was able to pull out of me," Spielberg said. The film features interviews with friends, family, and collaborators, including Martin Scorsese, John Williams, Tom Hanks, and George Lucas. Spielberg doesn't feel that seeing a film about himself is as surreal as it sounds. "It's less odd and weird than kind of informative because I'm always looking forward to make the movies that I'm currently making, or the movies that I'm planning to make in the future. I rarely really have even time to indulge and look back at the other films, unless I'm showing 'E.T.' to my grandchildren for the first time," Spielberg said. He actually found the process therapeutic, especially the process of seeing how his films relate to his family and personal life. "But also being able to see everything in continuity, it's something that I've never done before. I've never actually watched my films unspool through another filmmaker's point of view and understand a little bit better about myself and I think that's what Susan did," Spielberg said. While Spielberg found value in the process, Lacy had a different challenge. She had to direct a documentary about the life of one of cinema's greatest directors. "I mean it's enormously challenging and I try not to think too much about that. Actually, I think the privilege of being able to tell stories of artists who I admire - it's a privilege and I feel a tremendous responsibility to get it right, to tell that story right, and to have it have depth and to try to get beneath the surface in some way that helps the audience know the work better. That's always my goal. Who is the man behind, or the woman behind the work," Lacy said. While remaining quite prolific in his filmmaking these days, Spielberg doesn't have a routine for the types of film projects he decided to take on. "I don't chart it out or plan it ahead of time. I don't have some kind of a map of, you know, a strategy of any kind. I kind of - I'm very reactive to material. I'm very reactive to ideas, reactive to my own ideas, and things that I hear about and I read. So I don't really switch back and forth because that's the plan. If something like 'The Post,' which is coming out, grabs me, which I made very, very quickly because I found it to be very relevant," Spielberg said. Due out later this year, the film is based on the true account of the Washington Post's decision to publish the Pentagon Papers, and the scandal that followed. It stars Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks. Spielberg's other project is the sci-fi thriller, "Ready Player One." That hits theaters in 2018. Weinstein is taking a leave of absence from his own company after the explosive expose. "Spielberg" premieres Saturday on HBO.
