With a weight of experience behind him, Spielberg has written a feature for Empire, detailing why he believes that the world of cinema will bounce back after the devastating effects of the current coronavirus pandemic. “In the current health crisis, where movie theatres are shuttered or attendance is drastically limited because of the global pandemic, I still have hope bordering on certainty that when it’s safe, audiences will go back to the movies,” Spielberg said.
“In a movie theatre, you watch movies with the significant others in your life, but also in the company of strangers. That’s the magic we experience when we go out to see a movie or a play or a concert or a comedy act.”
