This retrospective celebrates some forty years of Steven Spielbergs boundless energy and his unwavering commitment to excellence in all areas of his work. The distinguished writer and critic Richard Schickel, himself a documentary filmmaker, applies his unique knowledge of every one of Spielbergs 27 major films to appraise the directors remarkably prolific and varied career. Featuring many first-person observations drawn from Schickels interviews with Spielberg, as well as a personal foreword by the director himself, this book presents an insiders perspective on Spielbergs legendary achievements. Impeccably designed and illustrated with over 400 superb images (including revealing behind-the-scenes photos from DreamWorks own archives), Spielberg: A Retrospective is the ultimate tribute to a moviemaking icon, and a book to treasure.

Review:
A brisk, glossy, insightful, film-by-film study containing fresh interview material, an easygoing tone and rare pictures ... Terrific stuff --EMPIRE (5 Star review)

Lavishly pictorial ... handsomely produced. --The Daily Telegraph

Absolutely fantastic ... brilliant images. --Hey You Guys

Loads of happy snaps of Spielberg behind the scenes --Total Film

The first book that Steven Spielberg has ever officially sanctioned about his 43-year career ... Packed with more than 400 images --Aberdeen Evening Express

A fine book at a very decent price ... a good choice for anyone who wants a nice edition of a book on the man's career --FilmWeek

Lavishly pictoral overview of his career ... The book is at its best when you get the sense of an ongoing conversation - one Spielberg, at least, doesn't look likely to end anytime soon. --The Irish Independent

Excellent ... a remarkably candid and smart study ...well worth the price. The stills are gorgeous, and Spielberg's chipping in here and there with comments on his own work are
even-handed and honest. --Cinemart

Impeccably designed and illustrated with more than 400 superb images. --Sight and Sound
