Close Encounters Of The Third Kind Theatrical Trailer

What do you do when you are the man who can say "I directed Jaws"? You get the two hottest producers in Hollywood (Michael Phillips and Julia Phillips), cut a deal with Columbia, and make your dream project. Spielberg had carte blanche on this movie. He could literally do whatever he wanted after "Jaws". He delivered what many consider to be his masterpiece.

I really want to watch this movie, but it scared the shit out of me when I was a kid so I don't know...

Same here! "Spielberg" went on to make even more motivational movies, such as "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial", "Twilight Zone: The Movie", "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom", "Jurassic Park" etc... and worked with other films aswell. I could never compare "Spielberg" to "James Cameron", maybe with "Martin Scorsese" :D.

... but then over the course of filming the budget blew up. it was always looked at as a 'modest' film (Spielberg thought he wouldn't director ever again... until Jaws was the biggest film of all time). His REAL Carte-blanche movie was 1941, and it shows. He was still proving himself with CE3K
