Friend and filmmaker Collin Souter returns
to the show to talk about the legendary (and possibly our most
famous director to date) Steven Spielberg. We start off by
focusing on his earlier films, including the sci-fi classic CLOSE
ENCOUNTERS OF THE THIRD KIND and then we take a look at the
under-appreciated coming-of-age WWII film, EMPIRE OF THE
SUN. We later expand upon some more of his other films as well
including JAWS and ET. In addition, Collin reviews FANDANGO,
Patrick talks about THE FURIES and just in time for Valentine's
Day, Jim revisits LA STORY.
