Steven Spielberg

I think that's still around and spotty, but it's still around.

But you've got a lot of things that don't exist anymore where the film has outlived some of what I think Stanley assumed would be around for millennia.

I think he assumed those were bedrock corporations.

Well, when I first saw the movie, I didn't notice the special effects.

I was in that story.

I was part of that experience.

So I wasn't picking it apart.

I went back to see the movie two weeks later.

And I went back to see the movie a week after that.

So I saw the movie about four times in a month.

And it was the second and third and fourth time that I started just marveling at how did they get that on the screen?

How did they do that?

And who are these people?

Who is Wally Beavers?

Who is Douglas Trumbull?

Who is Colin Cantwell?

I mean, who are these people?

And because they all got kind of special effects supervisor credits on single cards.

And I just wanted to get to know them.

So, of course, I went to Doug Trumbull when I made Close Encounters with the Third Kind.
