With this movie Steven Spielberg became the 1st (and only to this day) movie director ever to direct 3 movies that were at 1 point the highest-grossing movie in the world (the others being Jaws and E.T.) and the 1st to direct 2 consecutive ones (the other being E.T.)

Steven Spielberg’s influence on cinema is near impossible to defeat. Just the sheer variety of films he had made, from blockbusters like Jaws and Raiders of the Lost Ark, heartwarming family friendly films like ET: The Extra Terrestrial, and war time …

Duel (1971) is the first feature film (if you count Firelight) from Steven Spielberg and while he is known for his well known classics like Jaws, E.T., Jurassic Park, Indiana Jones and many others, Duel still remains as one of my favorite Spielberg films he has ever done.

It’s true that Spielberg isn’t as focused on an overexaggerated tone / cinematography the way WKW and Malick and Lynch are but Spielberg isn’t making niche art films. He’s first and foremost a storyteller, and he relies heavily on plot over style (although he low key has some of the most amazingly choreographed shots in film history).

Steven Spielberg and his screenwriter David Koepp know exactly how to build tension, when to let the audience breathe, and how to deploy comic relief. The real stars are the dinosaurs , of course, but the human characters, called „serviceable“ by contemporary critics, are actually all …
