 Not sure why you wouldn't just link to the video itself which tellingly doesn't even have a million views. Spielberg really held out for decades and then gave us something YouTubers like La Blogotheque et al have been doing for 15+ years, only worse? It is also a terrible song, good lord

Well, I wanted to spare people the misery of listening to a Mumford and Sons-related song!

The video credits in the YouTube description list "Producer, Art Director and Dolly Grip - Kate Capshaw" and "Costumer and Sound - Carey Mulligan"(!) so I wonder if one couple had the other over for dinner and this spontaneously arose several drinks in. No DP listed so I'm picturing Spielberg shooting on his iphone! This is also how I learned Mulligan is married to a Mumford/son.

I believe he turned down The Beatles to direct a video when Anthology came out and they were looking for someone to direct “Free as a Bird”

Typical Spielberg. Manipulating everyone again, this time to take a seat

Looks like Spielberg is finally going to make Kubrick's script for Napoleon into a seven-part limited series for HBO

With David Leland (director of the brilliant Wish You Were Here (1987) and co-showrunner with his Mona Lisa collaborator Neil Jordan on The Borgias) being the only writer publicly attached to adapting it for television.

I’m really curious about the unearthed script Jim Thompson wrote for Kubrick, Lunatic at Large

It was supposed to begin production in Fall 2021 but there has been no news of it since then, so my guess is that it didn't actually start.

I like how just when Trump leaves office, America decides it needs to get its grandiose-leader fix with multiple Napoleon projects
