As a fan of special effects, and entirely attuned to the shift towards younger film audiences, he took entertainment to new heights with films such as \u003ci\u003eJaws\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e(1975)\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003ci\u003eClose Encounters of the Third Kind\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e(1977)\u003c\/b\u003e, \u003ci\u003eET \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e(1982)\u003c\/b\u003e and \u003ci\u003eJurassic Park \u003c\/i\u003e\u003cb\u003e(1993)\u003c\/b\u003e.

He is also involved in production through his studio \u003cb\u003eDreamworks\u003c\/b\u003e and is undoubtedly one of the most influential figures in contemporary film.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Phaidon Press","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44897540767973,"sku":"NP9782866425753","price":9.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/20281dd9-d1a9-4bff-8bde-adbc018a7519.jpg?v=1767886558","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/steven-spielberg-isbn-9782866425753","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
