Steven Spielberg: "Every one of my movies is a personal movie"
CBSN
Steven Spielberg has made some of the biggest movie blockbusters in history, and all of them, he says, are personal. In his latest, the semi-autobiographical "The Fabelmans," Spielberg explains how his childhood love of movies led to his storied career as a director. He also shares with CBS News' Lesley Stahl a family secret he carried for decades, in an interview for "CBS Sunday Morning," to be broadcast November 6 on CBS and streamed on Paramount+.
"Every one of my movies is a personal movie," said Spielberg, the director of such blockbusters as "Jaws," "Raiders of the Lost Ark" and "Jurassic Park." "I don't make films that I don't consider to have something of myself left behind in them."
Spielberg said making his latest movie was cathartic, even joking, "What have I just done? Has this been $40 million of therapy? Whoever spends $40 million in therapy to make a movie?"
For Julia Louis-Dreyfus, real life can be just as humorous as the comedian herself. "I had this great opportunity to receive the star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame," she said. "Would you believe that they misspelled my name? They wrote Luis. L-U-I-S. And I have the misspelled part. It's framed in my office, just as a reminder, just when you thought it was perfect and you'd landed it? No."

Earlier this year, a botched "Willy Wonka" exhibit in Glasgow, Scotland, went viral – because what was promised to be an immersive experience filled with fun and candy was far from that. Instead, it was a largely barren warehouse with lackluster decorations and no chocolate. Now, the experience – which outraged some attendees enough to call the cops – is being turned into a musical.
