A TV weather report predicts hail. The camera pans downward, from television set to kitchen table. Plinking sounds begin. Cereal falls into a bowl.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThose were Froot Loops,\u201d Spielberg says, smiling. \u201cMy favorite.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spielberg\u2019s latest, like some of his earliest and most beloved films, again concerns what might fall from above. \u201cDisclosure Day,\u201d which Universal Pictures releases June 11, returns Hollywood\u2019s preeminent big-screen craftsman to one of his most abiding questions: Are we alone?<\/p>\n<p>Coming nearly half a century after \u201cClose Encounters of the Third Kind,\u201d \u201cDisclosure Day\u201d is a grand bookend for one of the most cosmically-minded moviemakers of our time, whose dreams of extraterrestrial life have shaped all of ours. It\u2019s a distant answer to the final notes of \u201cClose Encounters.\u201d But while Spielberg grants his 1977 film was \u201cspeculative,\u201d \u201cDisclosure Day,\u201d he insists, is the real deal.<\/p>\n<div><\/div>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s my first film that will be considered science fiction that I do not consider to be science fiction,\u201d Spielberg said in a recent interview. \u201cIt\u2019s much more reflective of the world as it is evolving and discoveries that are being made as we speak.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spielberg, at 79, is trying to revive and reconsider the alien wonder that\u2019s long lingered in his mind, from \u201cE.T.\u201d to \u201cWar of the Worlds.\u201d \u201cDisclosure Day,\u201d Spielberg\u2019s first summer movie in a decade, is already being hailed as one of his best in years. But this time, Spielberg is testing whether he can conjure some of his trademark movie magic less with imagination than with conviction.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ve been a believer since I made \u2018Close Encounters\u2019 50 years ago,\u201d Spielberg says. \u201cBut I would always say: Until I\u2019ve seen a UAP or a UFO with my own eyes, I\u2019m not going to categorically state that life from out there has come here.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cBut I\u2019ve changed that,\u201d he adds. \u201cI\u2019m now willing to change my mind because of the circumstantial evidence which is overwhelming.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Aliens again, but different<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cDisclosure Day\u201d stars Josh O\u2019Connor as a cybersecurity whistleblower with government evidence, long suppressed, chronicling a history of alien encounters. Guiding him in his escape from a corporate executive (Colin Firth) trying to keep it all under wraps is the disclosure movement\u2019s leader (Colman Domingo). Meanwhile, a meteorologist named Margaret Fairchild (Emily Blunt) begins having a mysterious epiphany.<\/p>\n<p>When he first began thinking about the movie, Spielberg called up the screenwriter David Koepp, a longtime collaborator who wrote \u201cJurassic Park\u201d and \u201cWar of the Worlds.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI said, \u2018Sure, what\u2019s it about?&#8217;\u201d recalls Koepp. \u201cAnd he said, \u2018Oh, you know, aliens again. But different this time.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spielberg was coming off an unusually long break by his breakneck standards. His 2022 film \u201cThe Fabelmans\u201d pulled from his own childhood, dramatizing his parents\u2019 painful divorce and his own origins as a filmmaker. Spielberg\u2019s first gut-wrenchingly autobiographical movie left him unsure of what was next.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was the hardest question I ever had to ask myself because there was such completion in resolving so many personal issues that I had never aired in public before \u2018The Fabelmans,&#8217;\u201d Spielberg says.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI didn\u2019t care whether people thought \u2018The Fabelmans\u2019 was just a tale, a yarn, or if they cared that it was all true. I didn\u2019t care about that. It was something I did for myself. I always used to say it was $40 million of therapy that I didn\u2019t have to pay for. Universal did,\u201d he says, laughing.<\/p>\n<p>But Spielberg, having long followed reports of alleged alien encounters, was inspired by the 2023 House Subcommittee on National Security hearing on UAPs: Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena. Among the witnesses was whistleblower and former Air Force intelligence officer David Grusch, who testified that the government concealed a program investigating UAPs.<\/p>\n<p>The Pentagon then denied it. Yet in April, President Donald Trump said the Pentagon is preparing to release some \u201cvery interesting\u201d UFO files.<\/p>\n<p>Those 2023 testimonies and others so fueled Spielberg that he produced a 50-page treatment on what would become \u201cDisclosure Day.\u201d During the writing process with Koepp, he texted him more notes, he says, \u201cthan I\u2019ve ever sent to anyone in my life.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere was a period in there where I believe he re-read the script every single day for a year,\u201d Koepp says. \u201cWe\u2019d be in different time zones and I would wake up to 30 or 35 texts from his most current reading of the script. When the leader of the project has that level of commitment, it tends to bring along everyone. You up your game.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><strong>Extraterrestrial empathy<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Spielberg has long considered his filmography split in two, between the filmmaker who made \u201cJaws\u201d and \u201cE.T.\u201d and \u201cRaiders of the Lost Ark,\u201d and the one who, after 1985\u2019s \u201cThe Color Purple,\u201d was increasingly drawn to darker and more serious material with films like \u201cSchindler\u2019s List,\u201d \u201cSaving Private Ryan\u201d and \u201cMunich.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDisclosure Day\u201d is a kind of bridge between both modes of Spielberg \u2014 a thrilling chase movie filled with wonderment that\u2019s nevertheless grounded in reality and recent history. And its most ardent message is quite earthbound. Blunt\u2019s character\u2019s clarity comes from looking people in the eye. As much as it\u2019s about aliens, \u201cDisclosure Day\u201d is about empathy.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI think every movie should have a great emphasis on empathy because empathy sometimes feels like it\u2019s in short supply,\u201d Spielberg says. \u201cWe have it, sometimes we can\u2019t use it. Sometimes it\u2019s not allowed to be used if you want to stay aligned with your friends and your belief systems. But I think empathy is there for all of us.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDisclosure Day\u201d opens in a much different movie world than Spielberg\u2019s earlier alien adventures. It\u2019s one of few big, original studio movies this summer \u2014 a moviegoing season that the \u201cJaws\u201d filmmaker pioneered. But neither franchise domination, AI nor streaming make Spielberg fret for the future of movies.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe audience gives me faith in the movies,\u201d says Spielberg. \u201cEven though the numbers are still not pre-COVID level numbers for any films being released now, it\u2019s more robust than it has been for many years. The audience gives me belief that people still want to congregate in a dark space in the company of strangers to share an experience of a film made by storytellers. And that gives me faith to continue making films.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Spielberg will turn 80 this December. Around the same age, Martin Scorsese began to frankly ponder how many movies he had left. Spielberg doesn\u2019t think the same way.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI never think about how many more I have,\u201d he says. \u201cI\u2019m just hopeful that I will be inspired when something comes along, as I was with \u2018Disclosure Day,\u2019 as I was with \u2018Fabelmans,\u2019 as I was with \u2018West Side Story.&#8217;\u201d<\/p>\n<p>More inspiration is already on the way. Spielberg hopes that his next movie will be a Western. Despite his deep fondness for the genre and an indelible encounter with John Ford, it\u2019s one genre that\u2019s eluded him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI always feel like parts of the \u2018Raiders\u2019 adventure movies are like Westerns,\u201d he says. \u201cWhenever Harrison (Ford) was on a horse, it made me wistful for wanting to direct a full Western, a real Western.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Margaret Fairchild in \u201cDisclosure Day\u201d has some echoes with another Spielberg protagonist: Richard Dreyfuss\u2019 Roy Neary in \u201cClose Encounters.\u201d Both are compelled by a strange force beyond their control. It\u2019s a character type that Spielberg, a compulsive movie maker, grants he connects with. \u201cDisclosure Day\u201d is his 35th feature film.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI identify with characters who aren\u2019t afraid of mysterious things happening to them,\u201d Spielberg says, \u201cand who are fighting for their survival by trying to discover what they don\u2019t know.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/denvermovingchronicle.com\/?p=1924\">Presidential museum showcases political and personal sides of Obama with sprawling community campus<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/denvermovingchronicle.com\/?p=1926\">Police warn families of Tiananmen crackdown dead not to visit graves on 37th anniversary<\/a><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Read more <a href=\"https:\/\/denvermovingchronicle.com\/?p=1927\">Supreme Court sides with Trump administration on federal regulation of telecom companies<\/a><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>NEW YORK | A moment early on in \u201cDisclosure Day\u201d will instinctively feel familiar to anyone who grew up with Steven Spielberg films.
