From science fiction\, fantasy\, action-adventure and comedy to hard-edged dramas and searing war films\, Spielberg has done it all with exemplary panache\, forging a distinguished career that showcases a filmmaker still on top of his extraordinary talent after six decades. \nClips from DUEL\, JAWS\, RAIDERS OF THE LOST ARK\, EMPIRE OF THE SUN\, SCHINDLER’S LIST\, SAVING PRIVATE RYAN and other Spielberg classics will be screened and discussed. \nShare this:\n Share on Facebook (Opens in new window)\n Facebook\n \n Share on X (Opens in new window)\n X\n \n Share on LinkedIn (Opens in new window)\n LinkedIn\n \n Share on Reddit (Opens in new window)\n Reddit\n \n Email a link to a friend (Opens in new window)\n Email\n \n Share on Pinterest (Opens in new window)\n Pinterest\n Like this:Like Loading...
