I cannot wait to see this. He, Mr. Speilberg is the reason I got into filmmaking, as I am sure so many others have. Thank you Mr. Spielberg!

“I’ve always been very hopeful which I guess isn’t strange coming from me. I don’t want to call myself an optimist. I want to say that I’ve always been full of hope. I’ve never lost that. I have a lot of hope for this country and for the entire world.” – Steven Spielberg

The name of the actor who plays Sam, an actor I am unfamiliar with, flashes on the screen here for such a brief split second that I couldn’t even read it. What the hell has happened to credits? I went to see the film a few days ago. It is EXCELLENT! But, as with most films now, no opening credits; the end credits whiz by so fast I only caught a few of them: the poster outside the theater had no credits; I watched the trailer here on YouTube, no credits there either. Okay, I recognized Michelle Williams and Judd Hirsch. But who is everyone else? And what about all the other credits other than the actors? WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO CREDITS?!

Mr. Spielberg you’ve had a remarkable career and life however I can’t know too many people who are interested in seeing this up on the big screen.

Why didn't you release this in my city in India ? I am a big Spielberg fan. Almost all Universal movies were released in my city this year.
