This young man has Hollywood good looks - so perhaps it's a surprise that he decided to spend his career behind the camera instead of in front of it! His cool, level gaze carries a lot of authority - precisely the kind of aura he needed in order to grow up and become one of the greatest Hollywood movie directors in history. Even by the age he was here, he'd made a few low-budget movies. Back then, he relied on his father's camera, and his subjects were his friends. Soon, all of that would change.
Some of the highest-grossing and best-regarded movies of all time are Spielberg productions. The first 'Jurassic Park' film was made with him at the helm, as was 80s classic 'E.T.' You can add 'Jaws' to that list as well. Not everything he's ever made was intended to be a blockbuster spectacle though; 'Schindler's List' was as serious a piece of film-making as you'll ever see. It's not without reason that he's been awarded an honorary knighthood by the Queen of England!
