Steven Spielberg’s Bizarre Interview By Andy Warhol

Posted on September 22, 2011 in Interviews | No Comments

In 1979, Andy Warhol interviews a 34-year-old Steven Spielberg on a hotel bed with Bianca Jagger. It aired on a Manhattan public access cable channel.

“I can remember the day my father brought home a transistor and said, ‘Son, this is the future.’ So I put it in my mouth and swallowed it” — and asks Freudian questions about his boyhood. Warhol takes a typically lighter approach. “The people in your movies are all so real,” he enthuses, before spiking his praise with a rare dash of irony, “but they’re good-looking, too, which is nice.”
