„I Don’t Feel I Am a Director-Teacher”. Steven Spielberg Outlined the Reason Why He Will Never Make a Movie Like Fight Club

As a gamer with over two decades of experience under my belt, I can honestly say that Steven Spielberg is a cinematic maestro who has consistently delivered masterpieces that have left indelible marks on the global film landscape. From the heart-pounding suspense of “Jurassic Park” to the emotional depth of “Schindler’s List,” his work has not only captivated audiences but also inspired countless others to pursue their creative passions.


Steven Spielberg is highly esteemed among directors, with his movies being recognized globally. Titles like “Saving Private Ryan“, “Schindler’s List“, “Jurassic Park“, and “Indiana Jones” are likely familiar to most people. However, despite his diverse portfolio in the entertainment industry, Spielberg has chosen to avoid certain projects as he maintains a clear path for his professional journey.

During an interview with The Star, the filmmaker openly admitted that he doesn’t view himself as a teacher, so he isn’t drawn to conveying lessons through his films. This is why movies like Fight Club, which offer subtle messages for viewers, hold little appeal for him – at least when it comes to directing such productions himself.

I didn’t intentionally aim to educate anyone, but rather see myself as more of a narrator. My passion lies not in instructing, but in sharing stories about American history and the broader context of world history.

Steven Spielberg consistently exhibits an artistic vision that extends beyond just portraying history; he also aims to infuse a touch of optimism into his films. Rather than leaving audiences feeling despondent, he often chooses a more uplifting approach. This is why you’ll find many of his movies carry a light-hearted tone, making them appealing to a broad range of viewers.

I feel optimism offers hope and I don’t like making movies where people walk out of the film in deep despair with a great sense of hopelessness about the future.

Steven Spielberg firmly believes in using his work as a means to instill optimism, rather than delivering lectures. Instead, he aims to offer an enjoyable experience for viewers.
