Spielberg's films have spanned many themes and genres in a career spanning more than four decades with classic hits like 'Jurassic Park,' 'Indiana Jones and the Raiders of the Lost Ark,' 'Schindler's List,' 'Jaws,' etc. While speaking with E!, Spielberg admitted that he doesn't watch any of his old work because, simply put, "I don't dwell."
The 70-year-old director revealed that the only film he has watched was 'E.T. the Extra-Terrestrial,' saying that he had shown it to his grandchildren. "I'll show my grandkids E.T. for the first time. I'll sit next to them and tell them, 'He doesn't really die.' And, 'It's only scary for a little while and then you grow to love him,'" he stated and continued, "I guide them through the experience."
