The friends of Steven Spielberg gave him a unique birthday gift when he was 40 years old
Amy Irving can make an excellent gift.
The actress and singer of “Carrie” and “Yentl”, who was married to director Steven Spielberg from 1985 to 1989, called some favors when Spielberg’s 40th anniversary was deployed at the end of 1986 and commanded a short documentary for him, which is done to be a cross between a parody of the “city of citizenship” and It your life “-Style Walkle Walkle” Citizen Kane “and a” That is your life “-Style walkle” walkle “. Dan Aykroyd and John Candy effectively recreate the opening of “Citizen Kane”, with Aykroyd telling a news on the 40th anniversary of Spielberg before he took the role of a publisher to travel quickly, the orders barking to Candy, who plays a journalist he does.
There are interviews with the real friends of the family and childhood of Spielberg, remembering and sharing good memories of interaction with him when he was a clumsy and obsessed child in the cinema and painting an image that closely corresponds to what Spielberg himself would put years later in “The Fabelmans”.

Young readers may not remember “in the actors’ studio”, but the series, which took place from 1994 to 2019, was organized by the late James Lipton, the dean of the prestigious studio of the actors, while interviewing actors and filmmakers. The whole show broke out of great conversations (it lasted so long that Bradley Cooper appeared as a student asking an issue in an episode, then finally appeared as the subject of the interview after his career), including a spectacular conversation in two parts with Steven Spielberg. The best time of this interview is when Lipton is making the joke that Aykroyd has made years earlier by making an observation on the “close meetings of the third type” and the life of Spielberg that the director did not even achieve him.
