Not just dinosaurs, aliens and witchcraft
But he's not only dinosaurs, aliens and the witchcraft. Throughout the years, Spielberg showed a willingness to take up difficult, pertinent issues as well.
In The Colour Purple, he wove a young lady's suffering into an intricate tale about women's rights and the horrors of poverty and racism. Schindler's List, perhaps Spielberg's most critically acclaimed offering, is frequently heralded as the most realistic, and thus gutwrenching, depiction of the Jewish Holocaust. In addition to box office success, the film won seven Academy Awards, including Best Picture and finally, Best Director.
Other movies in this more realistic vein include Saving Private Ryan, Amistad and Munich, left.
