Steven Spielberg Dismissed His Own Film — But It's One That Means So Much to Me
Steven Spielberg recently confessed that Hook is one of the few films he doesn't like to revisit, but I feel it's one of his best.
I was around ten years old when I first saw Hook. It was a Friday night, meaning that my parents would rent a movie from the video store (this was back in the days before streamers were a thing). Though I had previously watched Disney's Peter Pan, Hook spoke to me on a different level. It was also my first exposure to the work of Steven Spielberg, and as the years went on, I'd continue to watch more of Spielberg's work, whether it was Jurassic Parkon a weekend or Schindler's List for a high school history class. But if you were to ask me, Hook is my favorite Spielberg film...so I was surprised to learn that Spielberg isn't the biggest fan of it.
