SPIELBERG: BTF | E.T.

A Retrospective at the Palm Springs Cultural Center

Mondays, 7PM

Go beyond the blockbusters and step between the frames with this seven-film journey through the unexpected corners of Steven Spielberg’s legendary career. From quiet war epics and tender sci-fi to early road movies and virtual realities, this series reveals the emotional depth, visual poetry, and curious detours of a director who never stopped exploring.

A boy, a bike, and a stranded alien redefined what family films could be. Spielberg’s most personal sci-fi tale still resonates with its glowing heart, suburban wonder, and timeless plea: be good.
