"I'm more interested in the storyteller that doesn't know anything about where to put the camera, than someone who knows everything about the camera, but nothing about the story process." - Steven Spielberg
When Spielberg started looking at me at 12:53, something clicked instantly. He's the reason why I wanted to become a filmmaker. It's wonderful to see him talking directly to you in order to inspire you. Those 20 seconds are all you really need.
I don't care what religion, or no religion, one person follows. I have no reason to hate a person because of that. That's their choice. Tom just seems like a cool, genuine, hard working guy. I would love to just chat with him.
So you've been watching him act in movies..so you must really know Tom the person. If you don't like him, that's your choice but stop acting like you have some great insight to who he really is. LOL
My one and only close encounter with Spielberg was at the recording session for the movie Poltergeist. I was a studio singer for 60 years and was part of the chorus on that s film, score d brilliantly by Jerry Goldsmith. We had finished with the majority of the work and the women were asked to stay and sound like children for the closing credits, singing the little girl’s theme. Steven came in dressed in jeans and a baseball cap to approve and loved what we did. He came over to thank us and was very affable. A nice memory.
He was almost Cliff Booth in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood. I don’t think he and DICaprio would’ve worked well. Both are leading men. It would’ve been like DICaprio and Matt Damon in The Departed. Those two didn’t get along like Vin Diesel and The Rock didn’t get along on Fast and Furious franchise. DICaprio and Brad worked much better.
The part where Steven talks about how to start making movies, should be the introduction to every movie-making class in the world. Because he nails the definition of good movie-making. And I would probably fail that class, but I'd also try again. :D
it's great just listening these two masters talk about their craft. you can tell they both genuinely love what they do, and love talking about it. i could listen to a master class of either all day.
Thanks, Steven and Tom. A fledgling occasional director myself, watching and listening to you, Steven, makes me realize how much I AM like you, but also how much I am, as you said "an original". I can dance around a subject with a camera as well as anybody. Am having more trouble finding my "voice", in the material, and what I am trying to SAY WITH the material, as well as entertain. Thanks for the inspiration!
Saw it in the cinema, the ferry sequence is the best. Thought the 2nd half dragged on, didn't rate it that highly but I appreciate it more now. Its true to the spirit of the novel as a straightforward survival story amid an alien invasion.
Wow. When I clicked on this video I wasn't expecting all this incredible dialogue from both Steven. He's so inspiring and given his legendary status I didn't expect him to seem so down to Earth.
Steven Spielberg directed 3 great movies in the 70s Duel (1971), Jaws (1975) and Closer Encounters Of The Third Kind (1977) the man is a legend and he still is today
Tom Cruise is the only Scientologist I like. Probably has something to do with the fact that he doesn't talk like a brainwashed cult member and kicks ass
hmm, you must have missed out on the bucket load of the youtube search under tom cruise scientology videos.here's an example of how brainwashed and how much of a fool tom is sadly. in a interview for the movie magazine PREMIERE during i believe either minority report or war of the worlds (the interview was for 1 of these 2 spielberg directed films) cruise had the AUDACITY, CLUELESSNESS, FOOLISHNESS, STUPIDITY TO SAY THAT L.RON HUBBARD WAS THE STEVEN SPIELBERG OF HIS TIME!' L. RON HUBBARD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

@@tiaaaron3278 The superimposition of history on the modern political scenario complemented with brilliant performances on every front which connects with every human, if that sounds like every generic movie then pseudo intellectual movies are what you are looking for.
Hi Master Tom, sow good and glad to see your excellency, i am sorry am to late , and a nice to meet your honor Master Steven Spielberg , thank you very much and God bless all.
I lost him after 14:04 "Steven and I were trying to work together for a long time, of course you know" Then he loses me. Its cute when he mumbles though. :)
***** Johnny Depp was great in Black Mass this year, besides Johnny Depp never films never disappoints critics. I believe Johnny could do a great job with Steven
Steven Spielberg is a superb movie maker, probably the best ever. My only criticism, however, is that sometimes his aliens are more goofy than terrifying, breaking the suspension of disbelief.
found dakota a bit annoying in the movie but i still say its one of my favorite sci fi films. remember being utterly frightened while watching it in the cinema too
It's interesting. I do like Tom Cruise, but it's weird watching him speak; it's almost like he's reading from a script (which is good for movies, and he's a good actor), but when he's in an interview it looks like he's over-composed.
he usually comes across likeable to me but in this instance here with the legendary Steven Spielberg he seems a tad nervous/worrisome. I think he just respects the hell out of Spielberg to be honest
Poor Tom, he can't win for losing. I've never heard the term "over-composed". He's relaxed and that's how you want to come across in an interview. He catches hell for his work in Scientology but if you know his personal history it seems to have done him a lot of good.
Steven spielberg is numbrr 5 on directors list he loves srt passion and beauty and very intesely polite profoundly creative and believes in true love reads alot
I'd have a crush on Tom Cruise if I weren't afraid he'd dismember me after the first date. His dead eyes stare into your soul and his fake smile says "I have no real feelings behind this mask. Only bloodlust."
Great channel, 240p on most of the videos though Moviefone..what gives? Tom cruise on Spielberg - The greatest storyteller/director ever...nah i don't think so. Hes up there but Hitchcock, Scorsese and Kubrick are ahead of him.
thats Tom. he spews out praise like a flame thrower except its over exaggerated shallow garbage instead of fire. Spielberg knows Tom well enough to not pull him up on such a big call, instead just thank him for the gesture, pat little tom on the head and move on.

Spielberg war verständlicherweise sauer auf Tom, da er zu wenig Reklame für Krieg der Welten gemacht hat. Außerdem hat er immer schon seine eigenen Ideen in alle seine Filme hineingepackt, nachdem er mit TopGun sich das leisten konnte Bedingungen zu stellen.
Krieg der Welten hat mir nicht sehr gefallen, doch ich muss sagen auch dieser Film hat einen sozialkritischen Hintergrund, wie alle Filme mit TC. , auch wenn es im ersten Augenblick nicht auffällt und genau das gefällt mir in allen seinen Filmen. Sie sind nicht so hohl wie Transformers oder Expanders oder wie der Mist so heißt.

Why I like Spielberg.
Tom cruise's answer for the way he picks his projects was genuine and advice for anyone who wants to do something great with his life.

@@lionofjudah4574 Why????
@@Julian-p7q-b4t cruise is a jerky jerk to be around many say, web search it, i saw a yt vid on it actually

he was doing that to put tom cruise at ease
He's telling you not to do it like them, do it like you.

you too
i love how they both went for the questions in such a candid manner. They really respect each other and their art. Awesome to see.
Minority Report is the film that opened my eyes to real filmmaking and amazing plot twist, I saw it when I was 12, they both did great in it.
The way they tell and show the lost of a son gets me every time. And i don’t have children. Great storytelling

wow
Tom Cruise, Steven Spielberg, & John Williams, great trio collabed in two films! War of the Worlds and Minority Report!
That was a great and a very professional discussion.I would easily hang out with them and listen to them talk about movies.
Tom Cruise and Quentin Tarantino need to make a movie
Nah Nicolas Cage and Steven Spielberg.
are you from the future? I hear Quentin is eyeing Tom Cruise for his next feature
Evan Fisher oh big time
Evan Fisher They almost did. He was nearly cast as Cliff Booth after Brad Pitt declined initially.
He was almost Cliff Booth in Once Upon A Time In Hollywood.
I don’t think he and DICaprio would’ve worked well.
Both are leading men.
It would’ve been like DICaprio and Matt Damon in The Departed.
Those two didn’t get along like Vin Diesel and The Rock didn’t get along on Fast and Furious franchise.
DICaprio and Brad worked much better.
Imagine if his Boy Scout leader said he couldn't make that 3 min movie. He may of never become the greatest director the world has ever known.
BEST DIRECTOR OF ALL TIME MEETS BEST ACTOR OF ALL TIME! I LOVE THE WAY THESE TWO MESH IN PERSONALITIES AND TALENTS!! ADORE THEM BOTH!
The part where Steven talks about how to start making movies, should be the introduction to every movie-making class in the world. Because he nails the definition of good movie-making. And I would probably fail that class, but I'd also try again. :D

it's great just listening these two masters talk about their craft. you can tell they both genuinely love what they do, and love talking about it. i could listen to a master class of either all day.
12:45 - Spielberg talks directly to me! I love this being!
I think you'll find he was actually talking to me ;-)
hahaha

Loved this! Tom dresses so simply in classic good taste.
I haven't seen Tom so lit up for any interview before
Oh man. I'm just discovering interviews from this platform...awsome...
I love it when he turns to the camera to talk to the viewer.
Saw it in the cinema, the ferry sequence is the best. Thought the 2nd half dragged on, didn't rate it that highly but I appreciate it more now. Its true to the spirit of the novel as a straightforward survival story amid an alien invasion.

i love this two they are legend in their own special way Tom Cruise Steven Spielberg Fcuking love you guys
This is amazing, thank you moviefone, Steven Spielberg and Tom Cruise
I agree with Magnolia. He's just fantastic in there.
I am glad Sam Raimi got to make Spiderman, but I would love to see Spielberg direct a super-hero film.
Superman!
Aidan McMahon Actually, in the 70's he was asked to direct Superman but he declined for other interesting projects.
+grestoable yeah I read about that he was offered the 1978 film but turned it down to make close encounters of the third kind
if Spielberg did a super hero movie it's pretty much already guaranteed that it would be the best superhero movie ever. The man can do no wrong
Steven Spielberg directed 3 great movies in the 70s Duel (1971), Jaws (1975) and Closer Encounters Of The Third Kind (1977) the man is a legend and he still is today
I loved when Steven looked into the camera and told me I am naturally original!
honestly the most honest and insightful one yet
this was a really compelling interview, great advice
Love Spielberg as teacher trying to get other people inspired.
They are my favourites. Spielberg is the best of the filmmakers. Tom is the king of movie.
Once Spielberg speaks to me, his advice was to do it like myself.
08:39 This is the best part of this whole video.
The sage of spirits. Amazing interview! I am inspired : )
4:04 "I think Creativity is basically finding a way to make opportunities from your surroundings."
Tom Cruise is the only Scientologist I like. Probably has something to do with the fact that he doesn't talk like a brainwashed cult member and kicks ass
or just that you like him ok?
I guess you've never seen is Scientology rant. He's fucking crazy

These two living legends need to make a 3rd film together quick before anything happens.
What about a video with my love Martin Scorsese
I watched this movie a couple of times and LOVE IT! I think it would have been a little better if Tom had saved the day. Still a great movie.
I heard that Steven Spielberg made a film recording of Tom Cruise sleeping with his stuffed toy dolphin.
Nazri Buang really?
Really?
Was Tom Cruise an underage boy at the time?
They both seem pretty candid.
Has the most name recognition of any director.
