Book synopsis

This is an in-depth, up-to-date, and insightful biography of one of the world's most popular and respected filmmakers. Until the first edition of Steven Spielberg was published in 1997, much about Spielberg's personality and the forces that shaped it had remained enigmatic, in large part because of his tendency to obscure and mythologize his own past. But in this in-depth biography, McBride reveals hidden dimensions of the filmmaker's personality and shows how deeply personal even his most commercial work has been. This updated edition adds even more detail to Spielberg's life story, chronicling his extraordinarily dynamic and creative period from 1997 to the present, a period in which he successfully balanced executive duties at DreamWorks SKG with a remarkable string of directorial credits - including "Saving Private Ryan", "Minority Report", and "The Terminal" - all the while maintaining his reputation as one of the world's most thoughtful sophisticated, and popular filmmakers.
