Um dos sonhos de todos que curtem o cinemão de Hollywood seria trabalhar ao lado do diretor Steven Spielberg. Porém, como as grandes lendas a indústria, parece que para chegar lá não é nada fácil. Para início de conversa, você tem que preencher os pré-requisitos básicos do apelidado The Spielberg Curriculum. Nele contém uma lista que teoricamente conteria todos os filmes obrigatórios para se trabalhar com o renomado diretor e teria sido criada por ele mesmo.

Pode até não ser verdade, mas se a pessoa quer realmente estar ao lado de uma das mentes brilhantes por trás dos mais influentes e mágicos filmes já lançados, assistir 206 filmes é um esforço que vale a pena. Aliás, só tem filmaço. Lógico que o Spielberg não vai fazer um questionário sobre os filmes, mas se ele um dia disser sobre algum deles e você fizer cara de “what?”, com certeza será riscado da lista dele.

Prepare-se, pois a lista é grande (nome em inglês, seguido pelo diretor):
