Summary
June 12 marks the release of Steven Spielberg’s 35th feature, “Disclosure Day,” an aliens-among-us action thriller centered on conspiracy and collective catharsis.
The New York Times describes the film as lean, propulsive, funny and suspenseful, while tying its theme to Spielberg’s view that audiences need shared moviegoing experiences more than ever.
Spielberg, who turns 80 in December, is entering a more public New York phase after becoming a city resident on Jan. 1 and making five of his last six movies in New York State.
That renewed openness extends beyond film: Spielberg said he now wants to direct theater, saying the communal energy around Broadway feels unlike anything in movies.
