Spielberg says he has the same enthusiasm as he did making 8 mm movies as a boy
Spielberg said decades of success have not dulled his appetite for filmmaking as MoMA raised funds to preserve and acquire important works of cinema.
- MoMA honored Steven Spielberg at its annual film benefit on Thursday, celebrating his extensive career. The event, sponsored by Chanel since 2011, supports the museum's film preservation efforts.
- Decades of success have not dulled Spielberg's appetite for filmmaking. He retains the enthusiasm he had at 12 years old making 8 mm Westerns at home, telling The Associated Press, "I've gotten older, but that hasn't gotten old."
- Spanning multiple genres, Spielberg has made more than 35 feature films, from Extra-Terrestrial and Jaws to Schindler's List, which won three Oscars in 1994 including best director.
- Celebrity guests including Martin Scorsese and Emily Blunt attended the gala. In his acceptance speech, Spielberg reflected on filmmaking's collaborative nature, saying, "I have never stood alone."
- Spielberg said the films he directs often "sneak up on me from behind, like an idea," revealing his preference for directors who explore different styles rather than repeat themselves.
