What is Steven Spielberg: A Retrospective: A Retrospective about?

<b>With a foreword by Spielberg himself!</b><br> &nbsp;<br> From the irresistible fantasy of <i>E.T.</i> to the gritty realism of <i>Saving Private Ryan</i>, the films of Steven Spielberg have captured the imagination of the world. Renowned critic Richard Schickel now gives us the definitive illustrated monograph on this Oscar®-winning Hollywood icon, whose long and glittering career few directors have equaled. <br> &nbsp;<br> Spielberg is one of the most influential and inspirational minds in cinema, and Schickel provides perceptive analysis of nearly 40 years' worth of work, with illuminating film-by-film commentary on such masterpieces as the underwater thriller, <i>Jaws</i>; the high-speed adventures of Indiana Jones; the harrowing <i>Schindler's List</i>; sci-fi classic <i>Close Encounters of the Third Kind</i>; and the recent releases <i>Tintin</i> and <i>War Horse</i>.
