Spielberg invented the modern blockbuster with “Jaws” in 1975. He made “E.T.” the highest-grossing film of its time. “Jurassic Park” proved CGI viable. “Schindler’s List” won him Oscars for serious drama. “Saving Private Ryan” changed war films. “Indiana Jones” created adventure templates. At 78, he’s still directing, still dominating box office, still making films that define what movies can do. His genius: emotional manipulation that works. The shark in “Jaws” rarely appears—terror comes from not seeing. The dinosaurs in “Jurassic Park” feel real. He understands spectacle and intimacy simultaneously.
