He directed many other box office successes Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), E.T. (1982) & the Indiana Jones series. #StevenSpielberg

Really no Spielberg magic in this Spielberg movie. A pity, as the central acting performances are actually very good.

My kids haven't seen Close Encounters of the Third Kind yet and I thought it would be a fun surprise to recreate the meal eaten in the mashed potato scene and watch the movie with the movie dinner. (I can't wait to see if they put two and two together when that scene comes up lol.) Obviously there's mashed potato. And I can see sweet corn. Kids are drinking milk. But I can't tell what the little meat things…

I believe they worked with only very limited access to material from the film. Which makes the end result all the more laudable.
